GENERAL Stuckivoulich is an outstanding detached 5 bedroom country house situated in a very private and secluded location above Tarbet. The property is surrounded by stunning mature garden grounds extending to about 10 acres. Stuckivoulich, which has been in the same family ownership for many years, enjoys spectacular views from its elevated position over the surrounding country side, including Ben Lomond the most southerly Munro and Loch Lomond which is situated close by. The magnificent principal house which is in good decorative order throughout, has retained many period features including ornate cornicing and plasterwork, wood panelling, window shutters and pretty floor tiles. The property also benefits from oil fired central heating, an open fire, wood burning Jøtul stoves and Aga. In addition to the main house is a detached, former coach house part of which has been converted into a delightful and very popular self contained, 2 bedroom holiday cottage, with large open plan living area. The option also exists to create a further cottage in the remaining part for which planning permission has been granted. Stuckivoulich, which would benefit from further enhancement and modernisation, is ideally suited to permanent living or as a glorious weekend or holiday retreat less than 40 miles from Glasgow with its international airport. Alternatively, it provides an ideal lifestyle change with the option to operate the principal house as a Bed & Breakfast while managing 1 or 2 holiday lets in one of Scotland s most sought after and accessible locations. Surrounding both properties are the magnificent garden grounds including woodland, a wide variety of trees and plants including mature species of rhododendrons and azaleas, walled fruit and vegetable garden and productive flight pond attracting large numbers of visiting duck. The extensive grounds also provide a delightful natural habitat for a wide variety of other wildlife including deer, many species of bird, pine martens and otters. Also within the grounds are a detached, double garage and various outbuildings suitable for storage. Stuckivoulich enjoys a wonderful, rural location yet is within easy reach of the main road and rail network. Between Arrochar and Tarbet is the local railway station connecting the area to Glasgow and Edinburgh as well as a direct link to London via the Caledonian Sleeper. The A82, only one mile from the property, links Stuckivoulich to many of Scotland s major cities and towns including Oban to the north from where ferry services operate to the Inner and Outer Isles.
