Forming part of the picturesque village of St. Catherine's, Holly Robin Lodge is a unique and highly versatile home with the luxury of an indoor heated swimming pool, offering wonderful views across Loch Fyne towards the coastal village of Inverarary and it's magnificent castle. This impressive house provides many options to prospective buyers, from a main family residence to a unique business opportunity.
To one side, there is an attached two bedroom self-contained annex which could be used as a holiday let, and to the other is a substantial, easily maintained indoor heated swimming pool with French doors out to the garden. The local area is a well known holiday destination, with its wealth of nature trails and a number of outdoor pursuits catered for.
Holly Robin Lodge backs directly onto mature woodland allowing the owners and guests to witness, at close quarters, a wide variety of wild-life including Red and Roe deer, Pine Martens, red squirrels and numerous species of birds (with over thirty species chronicled). Also, beautiful views over Loch Fyne and out to Inveraray Castle can be admired from all of the public rooms, swimming pool room and three of the bedrooms.
Set within two thirds of an acre of mature, landscaped gardens (which incorporate ornamental ponds), Holly Robin Lodge comprises: entrance vestibule, broad welcoming reception hall, impressive bay windowed lounge with 11 kilowatt multi-fuel burning stove, bay windowed dining room, conservatory/garden room, three double bedrooms, newly fitted kitchen with island breakfast bar, utility room with access to WC, changing room with WC and shower, and a superb pool room with heated swimming pool and French doors and large windows providing great views of the loch. The lettable cottage/annex offers a substantial sitting/dining room with 8 kilowatt multi-fuel burning stove, kitchen, downstairs WC, two upstairs double bedrooms, and refitted shower room.
The property has been greatly enhanced by the installation of an expensive biomass central heating system. This has enabled the current owners to enjoy significantly reduced heating bills and will derive generous rebates under the renewable heat incentive (RHI) for the next four years or so. The annual RHI payment to the owners is ?5,384 at the current rate. The current owners will be able to explain the benefits of this incentive to prospective buyers.
