*Closing Date set for Wednesday 29th June at 12 noon* An opportunity to acquire a charming two-bedroom detached cottage, set within grounds extending to approximately 0.68 Ha (1.67 Acres) and benefitting from far reaching views over the surrounding countryside.
Description
Situated in a wonderful, elevated position with far reaching views across the surrounding countryside, Barrachuile offers buyers an opportunity to acquire a delightful two-bedroom traditional property sitting in grounds extending to approximately 0.68 Ha (1.67 Acres).
This single-story property is of stone construction, sitting under a pitched slate roof. The layout comprises of two bedrooms, one to the front and one to the rear of the house, bathroom, and a spacious dining kitchen/living room. The property benefits from double glazing and electric heating.
The house would benefit from modernisation in places, however, once completed, would make a wonderful home in a truly beautiful setting.
External
Externally, the property is accessed from the shared private track by a gated driveway, leading to a parking area behind the house. The majority of the land is located to the front, with assorted sheep pens and fenced enclosures located to the side and rear. A metal clad shed is located to the rear of the house, offering dry storage for garden machinery and equipment. The area to the rear of the cottage is also large enough to accommodate several vehicles.
The land area to the front leads down to the access track and a small burn flows across the land to the east boundary. The property will be stock fenced prior to completion of the sale.
Location
Barrachuile enjoys an enviable location just a short commute from the coastal town of Lochgilphead. The town offers several amenities, with a blend of supermarkets and independent shops catering for everyday requirements.
The local offices for Argyll and Bute council are located centrally within Lochgilphead, along with a modern medical centre and secondary school. Ardrishaig, the neighbouring village to Lochgilphead, is renowned for sailing and water sports, and Tarbert, a picturesque harbour village, is located just a few miles to the south.
The thriving town of Oban is located around 34 miles to the north and the largest port in the west of Scotland. It is home to the main Calmac ferry terminal which serves Mull, the inner Hebridean islands as well as Barra, South Uist and the Outer Hebrides. Oban is popular with tourists and hosts many teashops, restaurants and bars. For those feeling more active, the Atlantis Leisure Centre, located in the town centre, offers swimming, gym and sports facilities.

If leaving Lochgilphead, travel north on the A816 before turning right at Bridgend village.
Follow the signs for Kilmichael Glassary and continue along the road for approximately 2.3 miles. Just before a left-hand bend, turn right, down a private track and follow the road, passing several properties, for approximately 0.7 miles. The access track to Barrachuile will then be found on the left, marked by a Bell Ingram sale board. Clients are advised to park at the gate and walk up the track to the property.
Access
Forest roads have a design speed of 25 kph (15 mph). A servitude right of access, for residential purposes, will be granted over the route from the public road over sections of road in the sellers ownership. Maintenance will be on an according to use basis. Servitude rights over sections of road in neighbours ownership are already established in title.
Services

It should be noted that the existing private water supply failed to meet Argyll and Bute’s standard for domestic installations. The successful purchaser will be responsible for any improvements to the system in order to meet the necessary requirements. It is understood that local council grants of up to £800 are available to help improve the water supply. Further details are available from the selling agent.
