CRAIGMORE. CARRADALE, BY CAMPBELTOWN.
Craigmore is one of the finest houses in the village of Carradale. It is a substantial stone built house with commanding views to the north and east. It is situated to the west of and above the harbour so that the views to the north and east are uninterrupted. The whole of the harbour can be seen from the master bedroom.
Craigmore was built roughly 98 years ago. It has been thoroughly modernised, but has successfully retained many original and attractive features. The property is stone built with a tiled roof and has generous overhanging protective eaves with dry dash rendering to the outer walls. The restored pitch pine doors and pine staircase enhance the atmosphere of quality throughout. The property has been fully double glazed with oak cills and facings. The property has been insulated and there is Total Control electric heating with Dimplex storage heaters.
Up to date kitchen units and a new bathroom suite have been installed, but the property retains its original charm and character.
The present owner has run a successful holiday letting business using the property. Further information can be provided on request.
