Shore Cottage, Largiebeg, Whiting Bay KA27

Shore Cottage is a two-bedroom detached property on the shoreline at Largiebeg Point, near Whiting Bay on the Isle of Arran. The accommodation includes a sitting room, kitchen, shower room, two ground-floor bedrooms and two attic rooms reached by steep fixed stairs. The listing describes the cottage as requiring refurbishment and notes traditional features that could be restored. The kitchen has fitted wall and base units, an electric hob and oven, and space for a fridge freezer. The sitting room and kitchen each have an open fire, with the kitchen fire currently fitted with a freestanding gas appliance. The grounds extend to approximately one third of an acre and include lawn, a paviour path, a stone boundary wall, a timber shed and a summer house with patio and doors opening towards the beach. Mains electricity and water are connected; drainage is to a septic tank. Hot water is provided by electric boilers, while heating is described as coming from the open fire and freestanding space heaters. Access is an important practical consideration. There is no direct vehicular access to the cottage, and the private unfinished track is described as suitable only for a 4x4 or high-clearance SUV. The final approach includes a steep path with 72 steps. The property is close to Whiting Bay amenities, but its shoreline position and access arrangements should be considered alongside the refurbishment work.
