You may even moor your own yacht in front of the house on the Royal Northern moorings.

Constructed in 1994 to an exacting standard, the property has since been completely remodelled and extended by an exciting architect and designer collaboration to turn the house into an absolutely stunning contemporary home to live in, enjoy and cherish.

The welcoming entrance hallway has a sweeping curved wall bringing you into the stunning, open plan kitchen/ dining / family area.

Designed perfectly for modern family life, this bright and sociable space features an extensive range of quality floor and wall-mounted units, an in-built range style stove and ample areas ideal for relaxed seating and, of course plenty of space for a table and chairs within the dining area on open plan. French doors open out to the gardens at the side and patio doors open out to the front terrace.

Further accommodation on the ground floor includes a flexible study or home office which may also serve as a guest bedroom, a light and bright fifth bedroom, a well appointed shower room and excellent storage throughout.

The upper level continues to impress with four generously proportioned double bedrooms, three benefiting from fitted wardrobes. The luxurious principal suite enjoys spectacular elevated views across the rear gardens out to the Loch and mountains on the horizon. There is also a stylish en-suite bathroom off.
