Description

Nettlehirst is a beautifully restored and elevated 1920s detached bungalow, now presented to the market in true walk-in condition. Situated on the edge of the desirable village of Lamlash, this charming home enjoys commanding views across Lamlash Bay and the iconic Holy Isle to the east, as well as Goatfell to the north. Thoughtfully refurbished to a high standard, the property retains many of its original period features, including deep skirtings, ornate architraves, high ceilings, and original fireplaces, which now sit comfortably alongside quality modern upgrades.

This adaptable and well-proportioned home sits directly opposite the scenic 18-hole Lamlash Golf Course and is just a short stroll from the village centre and shoreline. With a generous rear garden, detached garage and store, and ample off-road parking, Nettlehirst offers a rare opportunity to acquire a stylish and flexible home in one of the Isle of Arran’s most sought-after locations.

Accommodation

The elevated position of Nettlehirst is immediately impressive, with newly landscaped access and smart glass balustrading to the front steps. Traditional double storm doors open into a welcoming entrance vestibule and spacious reception hallway, from which the living accommodation flows naturally.

To the front of the property is the elegant lounge, a bright and airy space with a large bay window framing open views across the golf course and out towards Holy Isle. A newly installed log-burning stove is set within the original fireplace, adding a warm focal point. Opposite the lounge is the principal bedroom, also featuring a bay window with similar stunning views, the bedroom also benefits from a newly installed en-suite shower room.

A contemporary open-plan kitchen, dining and family area sits at the rear of the property. This beautifully designed space features a central island with integrated hob, a range of wall and base units, and high-quality integrated appliances including a double oven, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and washing machine. A second log-burning stove creates a cosy atmosphere, while the generous dining area is ideal for family meals or entertaining. A rear vestibule provides practical access to the back garden, making it a useful space for wet boots, dogs, or outdoor gear.

To the rear of the bungalow are two further double bedrooms, both spacious and versatile. The family bathroom, placed between the two bedrooms, has been fully modernised and features an electric shower over the bath and tasteful tiling.

Throughout the property, herringbone flooring and neutral décor add warmth and elegance, while extensive renovation works, including new double glazing, oil-fired central heating with a new external boiler, and full external wall insulation, ensure that Nettlehirst is as practical as it is beautiful.

A large loft space, currently accessed from the kitchen, presents excellent potential for further development (subject to the necessary consents), offering even more flexibility for growing families or those seeking additional work or hobby space.

Gardens & Outbuildings

Externally, the property sits on a generous plot with ample outdoor space. A newly laid driveway with quality shingle provides off-road parking to the front, side and rear, making it ideal for multiple vehicles or visitors.

The detached garage and adjacent workshop/store present a fantastic opportunity to develop a home office, studio, garden room or annexe (subject to planning permission), adding further value and flexibility to the property. The sizeable rear garden is mainly laid to lawn and fully enclosed—perfectly suited to families, children, pets, or keen gardeners.

With views from every angle and a peaceful setting that captures the best of the island’s natural beauty, the gardens at Nettlehirst are as impressive as the interior.

Please note: Some of the rooms have been virtually staged from actual photographs of the rooms.

Area

This delightful bungalow is situated in 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. The village of Lamlash has two hotels (The Glenisle & Lamlash Bay Hotel), two pubs (The Pierhead Tavern (PHT) & The Drift Inn), a newsagent, a chemist, medical centre, the only hospital on the island and the Co-op.

Brodick, Arran's main town, 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/Troon. Commuters and travellers now benefit from Road Equivalent Tarrif (RET) ferry fares, which are substantially lower than before. Ardrossan and Troon both have a main line 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 to the south of Ardrossan, with Glasgow International Airport 24 miles east of Ardrossan.

The Primary school, nursery and the only High School and Gym Campus are situated within the village and further Primary schooling is available in Corrie, Brodick and Whiting Bay. A frequent bus service runs around and across the island and, at Lochranza, there is the ferry terminus that allows quick access to the stunning West of Scotland via Claonaig. Kintyre here we come!
