4 bedroom detached house for sale

Located in a small private lane that is home to just a few substantial detached residences, Highveld is a delightful 1950’s detached family home that sits in an elevated position with stunning views across sweeping gardens and the waters of the Gare Loch. The house was subsequently extended later and now offers over 2200 square feet of accommodation over its two levels, all of which has been recently upgraded, modernised and improved by the current owners.

The ground floor welcomes you through a bright entrance vestibule with double patio doors, leading to a spacious hallway and a beautifully presented lounge featuring an enclosed wood-burning stove set against a striking curved brick wall. The beautiful contemporary open-plan dining kitchen has been upgraded by the current owners and features a range of modern wall and floor units, an induction hob, integrated oven, and a Quooker boiling-water tap, under floor heating, with patio doors providing direct access to the garden and outdoor dining spaces. A generous family room with sliding patio doors is fantastic in size and could easily serve as an additional ground-floor bedroom for those seeking flexibility or future-proofing. There is a very large utility room with sink, wall-mounted and counter-level units, and ample shelving for storage and shoes, with access leading directly to the garden. Lastly, a stylish downstairs wc completes the lower level, offering practical living for both family life and entertaining and there is a large under stair storage cupboard along with underfloor heating in the hall also. Upstairs, the luxurious master bedroom enjoys a peaceful rear aspect and boasts a dedicated dressing area and a sleek ensuite shower room. The ensuite is fully tiled with modern walk in shower cubicle, wc and vanity wash hand basin. Three further bedrooms provide versatile accommodation, with bedroom two currently used as a study/living area, bedroom four with a large built in wardrobe and all with stunning views over the water. The ‘L’ shaped family bathroom features a modern white suite with bath, wc and separate shower cubicle. The house has been thoughtfully upgraded and maintained, with modern PVC double-glazed windows and patio doors throughout, a gas-fired Worcester Greenstar combination boiler providing efficient heating and hot water on demand. There is also ample storage with two further storage cupboards on this level.

Externally, the property enjoys extensive landscaped gardens with a large front lawn, elevated decking for outdoor entertaining, additional patio areas, a greenhouse, cedar shingle storage shed, and levelled ground with decorative planters. A red-chip driveway leads to a large detached garage of matching style and finish, complete with an electronically operated ‘up and over’ door, window, timber pass door, and adjoining garden store. The boundaries are attractively formed by hedgerows, timber fencing, and Fyfestone retaining walls, creating a secure and private outdoor space.

The property sits within a small cluster of homes surrounded by open rural pastures, offering a true countryside feel while being just minutes from Helensburgh’s wide range of amenities including shops, supermarkets, banks, bars, restaurants, and cafés. Excellent transport connections include three train stations providing regular and direct services to Glasgow, Edinburgh, and London, with Glasgow city centre and the International Airport both reachable in under an hour by car. For outdoor enthusiasts, the area offers unrivalled opportunities, from sailing at the Royal Northern & Clyde Yacht Club in Rhu, to world class golf and leisure facilities at nearby Loch Lomond, surrounded by some of Scotland’s most breathtaking scenery. This outstanding home combines generous modern living with rural tranquillity and excellent connectivity, making it the perfect retreat for families and professionals alike.
