Traill Street, Broughty Ferry, DD5

Some homes just get family life - the noise, the calm, the chaos, the Sunday mornings, the school run (or walk in this house’s case!) scrambles – and this one on 3 Traill Street does it all with a wink and a bit of quiet confidence.

A four bed detached with three bathrooms, two large reception rooms, and a private garden that’s perfectly suited for long summer evenings… it’s the kind of place where life expands a little. And the driveway for four or five cars means nobody’s playing musical chairs with the neighbours.

Inside, the layout is exactly what families end up needing. The main lounge gives you that big, comfortable space for movie nights and Christmas mornings, while the second reception room becomes whatever your life requires – a formal dining area, another lounge, a playroom, or all of the above. The kitchen/dining area has that everyday practicality families rely on, with enough room to cook, chat, and keep an eye on everything happening around you.

Upstairs, the four bedrooms offer proper breathing room. All are well-sized, bright, and flexible enough to grow with you. Three bathrooms across the home keep mornings moving smoothly, even on the days when everyone somehow needs to be out the door at the same time.

Outside, the garden is private, settled, and easy to enjoy. It’s the kind of space that works just as well for quiet coffee mornings as it does for summer BBQs, paddling pools, and those “we’ll stay out for one more hour” evenings.

And then there’s the location. You’re a short stroll from Broughty Ferry - five minutes from the beach, the cafés, the ice cream, the dog walks, the brunch spots, the schools, the buzz, the whole Ferry lifestyle people wait years to get into. It’s the kind of area where weekends feel better and weekdays feel easier.

Homes like this don’t shout. They just quietly offer everything you’ve been hoping would appear.
