6 CROWN STREET
PORTNAHAVEN
ISLE OF ISLAY
6 Crown Street is a charming two bedroom SEMI-DETACHED COTTAGE in an elevated position overlooking Portnahaven bay, with views to the Irish Coast in the distance. Of traditional construction, some of the original features including the pulley in the kitchen and the wooden panelled doors, have been retained by the existing owners to honour the history of the property. The cosy accommodation, which is double glazed throughout, comprises entrance vestibule, entrance hallway, lounge with open fire, dining/family room, kitchen and family bathroom on the ground floor. A carpeted staircase leads to two good sized double bedrooms on the upper floor, both of which have West facing windows affording views across the bay, towards the breathtaking West coast sunsets. Floor coverings throughout the property are a combination of vinyl flooring, laminate and carpets, with space heating being provided by a combination of Economy 7 Electric storage heater and convector heaters.
A splendid addition to the property is the timber garden room in the rear garden, of Scandanavian construction. With power and light, the garden room provides flexible accommodation possibilities, having been used by the existing owners as a family room to allow a change of scene from the main house in inclement weather. Within the garden room there is a lockable store room which is ideal for the storage of garden tools, paint etc. To the front of the property there is a gravelled area which can accommodate two cars. A gravelled pathway, which is also used by the neighbour next door, leads to the rear garden, which is mainly under grass and banked up to the garden room level. Beyond the garden room there is a flat area of grass which is perfect for children to play, or simply for use as a drying green.
Portnahaven is a popular, and appealing conservation village which lies at the foot of the Rhinns of Islay. The safe, sandy bay is sheltered by the surrounding picturesque cottages. With an engaging and friendly community, the village benefits from a good regular bus service to the rest of the island, and a welcoming pub/restaurant specialising in local seafood dishes.
All in all, 6 Crown Street presents to the market an exciting opportunity to acquire a cosy family home, in a truly lovely location.
