Set on an elevated plot with uninterrupted countryside and distant water views to Gigha, Jura and Islay, The Old School House is a recently upgraded three-bedroom detached home finished in white pebble dash under a slate roof. The accommodation is arranged over two easily managed levels with bright rooms, a modern kitchen/dining space with Velux windows and a welcoming sitting room with a multifuel burner. Outbuildings, generous parking and low-maintenance lawns complete the plot.
The house will suit a range of buyers — a principal residence seeking rural calm, a second/holiday home, or an income-producing self-catering let. Renovations have been completed to present a largely move-in ready home; practical features include oil-fired central heating, double glazing and a floored attic with Velux windows for storage or occasional use.
Be aware of a few material considerations: drainage is via a shared septic tank, broadband speeds are very slow, and the property sits in a remote, very deprived area with limited services nearby. Council tax is band E and relatively high. Services have not been independently checked, and the EPC is rated E.
For buyers prioritising space, views and rural lifestyle this is a strong proposition. The setting — designated an Area of Panoramic Quality — offers excellent outdoor pursuits, ferry access to Gigha, and proximity to local amenities at Muasdale and Campbeltown, while also requiring acceptance of the practical compromises of remoter coastal living.
