Rock Cottage is a stunning detached home situated in a private waterfront position overlooking the Sound of Seil. The property offers complete seclusion and is almost entirely hidden. The house benefits from breathtaking views and easy access to the water via its own exclusive slipway.

The house has been extended over time from what was a quaint cottage to an impressive architect-designed home surrounded by beautiful gardens and grounds. The property is presented in excellent order with the accommodation set over three levels. The main reception rooms are to the front, and take full advantage of the superb outlook.

Extending to approximately 5348 sq ft excluding the summerhouse and shed, Rock Cottage begins with a welcoming entrance hallway connecting the older portion of the property to the new which has an open plan layout with sitting room, kitchen and dining room and extensive use of glass. Large sliding doors open from the dining room to a stunning fully glazed family room and outside to a large balcony offering some of the finest uninterrupted views.

The modern fitted kitchen has a range of integrated appliances, floor and wall mounted cabinetry and a central island providing extra work space; patio doors open onto a sweeping terrace which is perfectly positioned to enjoy the mature gardens. From the ground floor a staircase leads down to a substantial garage/boathouse with large electric doors opening out onto the private slipway. There is also a second utility room, store room, wine cellar and boiler room on this level.

Upstairs, the bright and spacious landing provides an excellent home office space and leads through to two bedrooms, one with an en suite bathroom.

The original portion of Rock Cottage offers a versatile space but in its current configuration comprises six bedrooms including the principal with en suite bathroom and French doors opening onto the terrace, and, as with many of the bedrooms, a large window provides a tranquil outlook. All bedrooms benefit from built in storage, and a separate shower room (there is an additional shower room on the ground floor) and family bathroom complete the accommodation.

The gardens and grounds include the ownership of a small private island and the shoreline. The gardens have been cleverly landscaped and offer a series of pathways meandering through the trees and shrubbery with benches positioned to enjoy the scenery. There is also a strategically-placed contemporary summerhouse close to the water which is ideal for birdwatching. The large terrace is also a wonderful spot from which to enjoy the views, and offers plenty of space for outdoor dining.

A private driveway leads from the road to the house, where there is ample room for parking. There is further indoor parking for one car in the separate garage that provides extra outdoor storage and a shower room.
