The property has been recently improved with fresh décor and new carpets through-out making it ready to move into straightaway. The main property covers the whole of the upper floor of this lovely Victorian villa and is accessed from the rear of the building where there is a stunning and inviting entrance to the building. Once through the spacious vestibule it open to the lobby where there is a wide staircase leading to the upper floor along with a private lift for those wishing to avoid the stairs. Once on the upper floor on the landing is an area which could be used as an office or hobby space and a door leads down the hallway to a stunning hall with a cupola in the roof which allows natural light into this lovely space. The main hall would make an ideal dining room.

To the front of the property is the sitting room which has outstanding views from its elevated position to the Clyde Estuary where you can see both directions, north and south from the bay window, a wonderful space to relax in. The property has 3 bedrooms with the main bedroom having an Ensuite shower room along with fitted wardrobes running the length of the wall. Like the sitting room, this spacious  bedroom has stunning views to the water. The second bedroom is a spacious room with built in wardrobe/storage. The third bedroom is currently set up as a dining room but would make a lovely single bedroom with views to the water. The main hallway would be an ideal location for a dining room where there is plenty of space for a large dining table and chairs. Off the main hall are 2 storage cupboards. The kitchen is to the rear and has plenty of wall mounted and floor mounted kitchen units, integrated dishwasher, fridge/freezer, gas hob and electric oven and microwave.  Next to the kitchen is a handy sized utility room with space for a washing machine and tumble dryer. The main bathroom is a spacious room which boasts a large shower cubicle, toilet and wash hand basin with a cupboard which houses the gas central heating boiler.

Externally, there is parking to the rear of the property for residents and to the side of the main entrance is an outhouse which houses the workings for the lift, it can also be used for storage. To the front of the property are 2 areas of lawn and a strip of ground to the side of the driveway which belong to the upper flat.

Erskine House is a short walk to the town centre where all the amenities you would expect from a small town are located and having the promenade opposite the property, it would make a wonderful walk into town.

Dunoon town has a good range of welcoming pubs and restaurants, a library, hospital, secondary school, concerts and events at The Queens Hall, cinema, swimming pool and leisure centre. There is a new primary
school in Kirn and Dunoon Grammar School within easy reach of the property. Located on the scenic Cowal Peninsula in Argyll, Erskine House is a short drive from Western Ferry terminal from where there are
frequent passenger and vehicular sailings across to Gourock. A few minutes’ walk from the apartment is the Calmac passenger ferry from Dunoon Pier. From here, the road and public transport links make it possible to commute on a daily basis to Glasgow and the central belt. It is equally possible to drive to Glasgow via Loch Lomond which takes a little longer but is via some of the most famous and breath-taking countryside in western Scotland. As with most parts of Scotland, one is never too far from a golf course and Dunoon is no exception - the district having three challenging courses.


The expanding Holy Loch Marina is nearby with its berthing and associated chandlery services, an excellent base from which to sail and explore the world famous lower Clyde and Kyles of Bute inland sea lochs and waterways. Sea fishing is available on the Firth of Clyde and it is possible to fish for salmon and sea trout by permit on some of the rivers and lochs of the district, the River Eachaig and the freshwater Loch Eck only a few minute- drive to the north. The area is renowned for its spectacular scenery. Benmore Botanic Garden and Pucks Glen is only five miles away and there are near endless walks, hill climbs and quiet country roads offering wonderful rambling and cycling country.
