Across a sunny courtyard to the rear of the property, a modern one bedroom apartment provides suitable staff quarters or rental accommodation. In addition, planning permission has been granted within the grounds for two mews style houses, adding further potential for its future owner.

Grove House is located at the upper end of Colla Road, within walking distance of Schulls picturesque Main Street and Harbour and is approached by a sweeping driveway and lawned gardens. A delightful terrace, overlooking the lawn and sea beyond, makes a popular place for guests and visitors to unwind and watch the world go by.
