NEW TO MARKET A cool and modern coastal home

A high-spec, modern house positioned right on the water’s edge next to the picturesque harbour

RENOWNED as one of the West of Scotland’s enduringly popular holiday hotspots, Tighnabruaich’s proximity to the famous Kyles of Bute has become increasing popular as a work-from-home lifestyle location in recent years.

One newcomer to the block in the neighbouring village of Kames is Bydand, a particularly high-spec modern house positioned right on the water’s edge next to the picturesque harbour, which provides direct water access and some of the best views the area has to offer. The property also has several outbuildings, including an integral garage/boat store/workshop with bespoke workstation, and internal access to a home gym.

Bydand is a substantial property with accommodation over two levels. With back and front decks/terrace, the ground floor houses an entrance with cloakroom and utility, spacious open-plan living/dining/ kitchen (with terrace access), separate sitting room, principal bedroom with dressing room and upgraded en suite bathroom (bath, walkin wet room and underfloor heating) – both this room and the sitting room have external access to a sea-facing balcony – and two further bedrooms, both of which have an en suite shower room and fitted storage.

Downstairs on the lower ground level is a 26ft living room open plan to a reading/ chill-out space with log-burning stove. There is an adjoining office/study (with access to the front garden), fourth bedroom suite (dressing room and en suite shower room), while the deck has an internal access door into the garage/boat store and adjoining gym.

Notable features include a recently upgraded Wren kitchen with central island/breakfast bar, integrated appliances, coffee station with refreshments fridge, sliding doors to a rear deck – and a door to the front raised patio and sea views.

Bydand’s front and rear gardens are designed for ease of maintenance and are mainly gravel flanked by lawn and fruit trees with uninterrupted water views. The front gardens are bounded by an exposed stone wall and wooden fence with private gated access via a stone staircase to the beachfront and water.

Just a mile from other amenities in Tighnabruaich, Kames village has a hotel, post office, shop, and regular bus service to both Rothesay (on the Isle of Bute) and Dunoon, while nearby Portavadie Marine (three miles) offers a state-of-the-art marina/ chandlery, restaurant, accommodation, and spa facilities. Offers over £575,000 to Robb Residential in Glasgow.

Offering direct access to the water, this contemporary high-spec property in Tighnabruaich is an ideal family home
