Drum Cottage is a traditional 3-bedroom, Scottish built property circa 1693 and is the last standing cottage in a settlement which has long since gone. Drum has panoramic views sweeping the surrounding countryside.
The Cottage consists of Front Porch, 3 bedrooms, sitting room, Kitchen/Diner, shower room, and a utility/workshop area.
The garden measures just over half an acre and is a picturesque garden with many varying types of trees and shrubs and is a pleasure to walk around. There is parking for 3-4 cars. The local farmer has access to the field, but it hasn't been used for over 10 years and the owners of Drum Cottage hold the keys for the gate.
The entrance porch is a lovely area to sit and look to the hills and the glen below which is south facing. On the lower floor are 2 bedrooms, one is a double bedroom and one a single bedroom, both are to the rear of the property. The sitting room is to the front of the cottage and is a good size with stunning views over the hills. The Kitchen/Diner is the heart of the cottage where it benefits from a wood burning stove set in a brick-built fire surround. The kitchen area is to the rear and has many wall mounted and floor mounted kitchen units, an electric cooker and stainless-steel sink unit. The shower room consists of a shower cubicle with an electric shower, toilet, wash hand basin all in white and an electric heated towel rail. The utility/workshop area is currently fitted out for storing tools and could be used to store a washing machine and tumble dryer. The back door gives access to the side of the cottage. From the stairway is a large double bedroom and an office/hobby area both are a good size, and both have a low ceiling measuring 5ft 6inch (168 cm).

Drum Cottage is in a rural location with very few other house’s nearby and is in a beautiful location with commanding views. The hamlet of Kilfinan is a short drive or walk over the hill where you will find The Kilfinan Hotel which started off as a coaching inn over 300 years ago and has a well-stocked bar with a kitchen serving a seasonal menu. Kilfinan Church is in the centre of the Hamlet. There are numerous woodland and seashore areas to explore including the tranquil Kilfinan Bay, many have paths and cycle ways, all are bustling with natural flora and fauna. Kilfinan consists of 12 houses and 3 working farms. The hamlet also has a well-supported community village hall.
Kames and Tighnabruaich villages have local shops, post office, primary school and Doctors Surgery and other services that easily cater for most everyday needs and requirements. Dunoon offers a further and fuller range of shopping; educational and professional services as would be expected of a regional market town. The short crossing CalMac ferry from Portavadie leads to Tarbert where there are fuller shops and services, the ferry adding an interesting waterscape dimension to a weekly shop.
There are outstanding beaches in the area, some sandy, some rocky. Ostel Bay for example, has a stunning crescent shaped, white sandy beach and is one of the gems of Argylls scenic coast. This area is part of Argylls Secret Coast, which stretches from Strachur at the top of Loch Fyne round the coast to Colintraive. There are countless opportunities to discover peaceful locations, glens, rivers and all the wildlife the country is famous for. Portavadie Spa and Marina is approximately 6 miles away and has in recent years seen significant investment in creating a modern state of the art Marina infrastructure, with associated chandlery, restaurant, accommodation and spa facilities. The Marina is fast gaining a reputation among the sailing communities as a must go to destination and many drive to the Marina for culinary days and evenings out. A wonderful area to live in.
