DESCRIPTION
On a very desirable elevated location this once glorious detached L-shaped Dorran style bungalow is now in need of complete refurbishment. Built circa. 1970 this was once a very attractive property and in more recent years attempts have been made to upgrade it. However it is now in very poor order with some of the partition walls, flooring and ceilings having been taken down. The house has a large balcony, accessed from the sitting room above the double garages, which is an ideal position from which to fully appreciate the lovely views over Loch Long and the surrounding countryside. The accommodation within comprised at one time of an entrance vestibule, hallway, sitting/dining room with balcony, kitchen/utility room, bathroom and 5 bedrooms. The house is accessed via a circular in and out driveway and has a garden area to the side and rear.
LOCATION
