View propertyOffering elevated views across Lamlash Bay to Holy Isle, this impressive four-bedroom, two-bathroom attached villa sits on almost a third of an acre, with idyllic burnside gardens, generous parking, and outbuildings offering development potential, subject to planning permissions. The beautifully renovated home retains all its period charm and is presented in walk-in condition with inspiring classical interiors.
Stepping inside, via a vestibule, the Victorian grandeur is instantly apparent within a characterful, high-ceiling entrance hall. Leading off the hall is an elegant bay-fronted living room offering captivating coastal vistas and a multi-fuel inset stove for homely warmth. Returning through the hall you reach the social heart of the home: a sleek contemporary kitchen in tasteful white and wood tones, with a bright and spacious dining area open to a sea-facing family room with a log-burning stove. Kitchen appliances comprise an integrated fridge, freezer, oven and induction hob with a statement hood, and an under-counter dishwasher. The kitchen also benefits from a walk-in larder and a rear porch – an informal entrance from the driveway, leading out to an attached boiler/laundry room with a freestanding washing machine. Completing the downstairs is a south-facing double bedroom or ideal home study.
The remaining three double bedrooms are upstairs, reached via a landing (with storage) and a staircase lit by an arched window with stain-glass detailing. The sizeable principal bedroom looks out across the bay and retains a focal fireplace. Adjacent is a skylit shower room with a chicly tiled walk-in enclosure. An additional door separates both rooms from the landing effectively creating a master suite. Completing the home is a bright sumptuously decorated bathroom featuring a freestanding rolltop bath, a separate shower, linen storage, and a charming cast-iron fireplace.
Externally, the extensive mature gardens include two large outbuildings and seating areas with a sunny front aspect and spectacular elevated views to the rear. The generous tarmac driveway provides ample parking, shared with the owners of the attached cottage.

Area
Glenarry enjoys an elevated location in the relaxed coastal village of Lamlash, which lies on the eastern aspect of the Isle of Arran, a popular island off the west coast of Scotland. Lamlash has two hotels (The Glenisle and Lamlash Bay Hotel), two pubs (The Pierhead Tavern (PHT) and The Drift Inn), a local church, a newsagent, a chemist, a medical centre, the only hospital on the island, and a Co-op.
Arran’s main town, Brodick, has two larger Co-op supermarkets and a full range of professional services. Brodick is the port from which regular sailings throughout the day, serviced by Caledonian MacBrayne, lead to the mainland at Ardrossan. Commuters and travellers now benefit from Road Equivalent Tariff (RET) ferry fares, which are substantially lower than before. Ardrossan has a mainline rail station, with trains to Glasgow that connect with the ferry times, and is approximately 30 miles from Glasgow City Centre. Prestwick International Airport is 16 miles south of Ardrossan, with Glasgow International Airport 24 miles east of Ardrossan.
“Selling a property is more than just a transaction. Building relationships, getting to know the people involved and making the process as simple and straightforward as possible – that’s what I’m all about.”
