Tigh-na-Traigh, Lochard Road, Aberfoyle, Stirling

A remarkable five-bedroom home on the banks of Loch Ard, offering exceptional loch views and a wealth of thoughtful upgrades.
With sweeping views across the tranquil waters of Loch Ard, Tigh-na-Traigh is a beautiful five-bedroom stone-built home, quietly located just outside the village of Aberfoyle. Set behind private gates and reached via a long driveway, the property enjoys total privacy within its expansive and carefully maintained grounds.
Inside, a bright entrance hall welcomes you, with large windows framing the view and ceramic floor tiles. A secondary hallway leads to the staircase and into the main living spaces. The formal dining room is flooded with natural light and enjoys direct views of the loch.

The show-stopping main living room spans the rear of the house, offering three distinct sitting areas, two striking fireplaces, and uninterrupted garden and loch views. Elsewhere on the ground floor, you'll find a reading room, a separate study, and a beautifully updated kitchen, refitted and enlarged with high-quality cabinetry, integrated appliances, and a re-enamelled AGA.

A former garage was converted in 2004 to create a practical and flexible space, with access now leading to a pantry and study/bedroom, and bathroom. A wood-burning stove was added to the back hall in 2012.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom features a luxurious en suite and beautiful views across the water. Three further bedrooms provide generous accommodation, including one with built-in wardrobes and another with a fireplace. The third bedroom was upgraded in 2011, along with the installation of a Jack & Jill bathroom.

The home is heated via a Worcester Bosch oil boiler (installed in 2013) with lined chimney and a modern flue system. A bunded 2500L oil tank was added that same year, replacing the older steel tanks and oil lines, and a new balance tank was fitted in the attic over the third bedroom.

Outside, the gardens have been extensively developed and landscaped since 2003, with carefully planned pathways, patios, planting, drainage, and steps, all designed to take full advantage of the setting. A private courtyard was created in 2005, and several useful storage sheds and wood stores have been added over the years (2005-2013).

Tigh-na-Traigh is a rare find: a substantial lochside home that offers not only a truly breathtaking location, but also the assurance of extensive upgrades and ongoing maintenance. A one-of-a-kind property in the heart of the Trossachs.
