Secluded residential retreat with approximately 10 acres, a charming main house, two secluded lodges, fishing rights, and significant development potential.
Nestled within the dramatic scenery of coastal Argyll, Glen Euchar House is an enchanting retreat combining natural beauty, privacy and versatile accommodation. This exceptional property has been lovingly held by the same family for over three decades, evolving from a private sanctuary to a successful holiday business.
Approached by a private drive flanked by mature woodland, the estate enjoys a remarkable sense of tranquillity while remaining within easy reach of Oban.
Glen Euchar House
At the heart of the estate stands the principal dwelling, Glen Euchar House, a welcoming detached cottage enjoying elevated views across the surrounding glen. Arranged over two floors, the accommodation has been thoughtfully designed to make the most of the natural light and spectacular scenery. The house includes four double bedrooms including one conveniently positioned on the ground floor where there is a shower room. Completing the first floor is the family bathroom. An inviting sitting room with woodburner provides a cosy space to relax, while the well-appointed kitchen, complete with an AGA range cooker, opens into a dining room.
Outside, a generous lawned area bordered by mature trees creates a wonderful setting for outdoor entertaining, and a newly installed hot tub offers the perfect vantage point to enjoy the sunset. There is a large gravelled parking area offering ample space for multiple vehicles.
The Log Cabin
Discreetly positioned beside an ornamental pond, the Log Cabin is a delightful hideaway offering self-contained accommodation in a peaceful setting. Inside, the open-plan layout features a double bedroom, a welcoming sitting area warmed by a woodburner, a practical kitchenette and a modern shower room. French doors open onto a covered porch overlooking the pond, with a private hot tub offering a secluded spot to unwind. Known affectionately as The Whisky Cabin, this lodge has been a popular destination for couples seeking a tranquil escape in the heart of the Highlands.
The River Lodge
Set above the banks of the River Euchar and surrounded by mature trees, the River Lodge combines sleek, contemporary design with an extraordinary natural setting. The interior offers a bright double bedroom alongside a stylish kitchen with breakfast bar, complemented by a modern shower room and a spacious living area. Expansive feature windows fill the lodge with natural light and allow unfiltered access to the woodland views. Outside, an elevated deck overlooks the River Euchar, with private hot tub.
Gardens and Grounds
The property enjoys riparian rights on both banks of the River Euchar, with three registered fishing pools providing excellent sport in a picturesque environment. The land itself is a haven for wildlife and offers countless opportunities for walking, photography and outdoor recreation.
Planning Permission
The property benefits from full planning permission (Reference: 040/01113/DET) granted in 2004 for the erection of a substantial dwelling house adjoining Glen Euchar House. A meaningful start has already been undertaken, enabling a future owner to complete this project at their discretion. Further details and architectural impressions are available on request.
