Unique and lovely family home on a Scottish Island, two hours from Glasgow. Close to the beach.

We live in the lovely village of Whiting Bay on the Isle of Arran. Our home is an architect-designed self build which we moved into in 2022. Our location is in the heart of the village and only a few minutes walk from the local beach, but sits in a small group of houses accessed from a private driveway. The house itself has four bedrooms and three bathrooms. The centrepiece is a striking open-plan living room and kitchen area with a vaulted ceiling with a green oak frame. There is a cosy log-burner stove for when the nights are cooler, albeit the house is very well insulated.
