A handsome former manse with excellent accommodation and mature gardens
Tenure: Freehold
Situation: Mansewood enjoys a slightly elevated position amidst its own gardens on the edge of Whiting Bay with views towards the Firth of Clyde. Whiting Bay is located on the south east corner of the island and overlooks the sea to the very southern point of Scotland. Locally the village provides a newsagent, post office, pharmacy, a caf/bar and bistro, hardware store and a farm shop. There is also a craft outlet and art gallery as well as an 18 hole golf course. Primary schooling is available in the village with the recently constructed high school, just up the road at Lamlash. The surrounding area provides some of Arran's most scenic walks, not only along the shoreline but through the forest to the Glenashdale Falls. The Isle of Arran is Scotland's most southerly island and is also one of the most easily accessible. Approximately 60 miles round, it has some of the finest sandy beaches, excellent walking and rambling and both sea and trout fishing. Tourist attractions include Arran Aromatics, the Arran Heritage Museum, the Lochranza Distillery and Brodick Castle.

Mansewood is an elegant property which dates back to around 1870. Built of stone under a slate roof the property offers well proportioned accommodation with large windows which ensure the house is naturally bright. The property at one time was home to the serving minister of the local church but whilst only the remains of the church are left Mansewood has been carefully and meticulously upgraded over recent years.
Mansewood opens to a welcoming reception hall with a well proportioned drawing room and sitting room on either side. The drawing room has an open fire set below a large timber surround and both rooms overlook the garden at the front, through trees to the sea. The dining kitchen is located at the rear of the house and is fitted with bespoke shaker style units and a blue Aga. A stable door opens from the kitchen to a sheltered terrace. The sitting room and dining room are sensibly located near the kitchen. A WC completes the accommodation on the ground floor. Four good sized bedrooms and a bathroom are located on the first floor. The master bedroom is en suite and has beautiful views over the water.
