1/19 and 2/19 Kinloch Road, Kinloch

Just along from the main beach, this charming cottage is perfectly poised for summer holidays. Recently painted in a fresh, summery blue, it is ready and waiting for carefree days by the lake. So handy to the shop and marina, it is just two rooftops away from the sandy shores. Wander down for an ice cream, then dip your toes into the sparkling water — this is holiday living at its easiest. There is an enduring appeal to a property like this: a place where location does the talking. And in real estate, that is always the gold standard. The cottage itself is simple and unpretentious — a place to enjoy as it is, refresh over time, or perhaps one day replace with something brand new. What cannot be changed is the position, and that is where the real value lies. The real magic here is the location, so very close to the beach and with the bonus of the park right at the bottom of the garden, accessed through a small gate, the setting is what makes this property so special. Properties this close to the lake, beach, shops and marina are increasingly difficult to find. Here, you have the chance to secure the location first and decide what comes next.
