Hazelbank is a stunning family home in an equally stunning location, St Catherines, just outside Strachur, on the shores of Loch Fyne.
Sleeping 10 people, it is a very special place, beautifully and thoughtfully decorated and seamlessly blends the charm of an old house with contemporary elegance.
The family are going to be out of the country for the next couple of years so they thought it would be a lovely idea to let others share their amazing home rather than leaving it empty.
It is the perfect place to rest and relax, all of the bedrooms have the comfiest beds and are all extremely tranquil spaces. Every room has a stunning view, you will find yourself catching your breath as you look through all of the windows.
Prepare to exclaim a series of ‘wows’ as you explore the house, garden, and your own private pier on the beach.
Perfect for that special birthday or celebration, bring your family and friends together and still find spaces for solitude, it's simply perfect for spending quality time with your favourite people.
Not only is the house fabulous, but the garden is also a place of wonder, enter via electronic gates, there is parking for up to 8 cars in the circular driveway as well as an array of gorgeous mature trees and plants and delightful and comfortable places to sit.
The colours throughout the year are magnificent and Loch Fyne is just a stone’s throw from the front door, enjoy your morning coffee looking over at Inverary and the ever-changing colours of the landscape beyond.
Just across the single-track road is a path to your own private beach, complete with a wonderful pier area with seating, a BBQ, a table, and a fire pit perfect for an al fresco meal and it's a must for cocktails, sunbathing and watching the sunset.
Hazelbank is also the ideal location for exploring all that Argyll has to offer, lots of wonderful restaurants, family adventures and day trips to the islands. If an early morning swim is your thing you won’t have to go far from your bed, bring your kayak and paddle board too, all popular sports on the Loch which is just at the bottom of the front garden!
When you open the front door you come into a large, elegant hallway complete with wood burning stove, on your right is the lounge with a huge sofa and lovely window seats for making sure you see as much of the Loch on your doorstep as possible.
The kitchen is just opposite the lounge and is well equipped and has everything you could need for preparing meals. It leads on to a big boot room with plenty of space for hanging coats, storing your boots and putting your dog bed (s).
Through the boot room there is a back corridor which serves as an additional cloak room with the rear access to the property through the back door, there is also another WC and the utility room with washing machine and dryer.
There are 2 WC’s downstairs, one just beside the lounge and one at the back of the kitchen beside the back door.
If you turn left in the entrance hall this takes you to the dining room which seats 10 and is also where you will find games, maps and a trunk full of fancy dress.
