With access via a small cul-de-sac to the front of the house, the house enjoys level, enclosed and easily maintained gardens that offer exceptional parking for several cars and with patio/sitting areas. From the house, the shore of the loch is only a minute’s walk away and provides beautiful scenic views across the water. The house is located opposite the Lochgair Hotel and the village church and just off the main road, there are several additional parking spaces.
