SOMETIMES it can be hard to find the right words to describe the Advertiser's Property of the Week.
That's definitely not the case with Darkwood in Rosneath, though, for which one word sums it up pretty well: "stunning".
Darkwood was built to a bespoke design in 2015
The hallway
Darkwood, at Clachan Farm on the hill above the village, sits in a wonderful elevated position with splendid views over the Gare Loch.
It's a stunning contemporary home which was built to a bespoke design by the present owners in 2015 with extensive use of glass and larch cladding.
The decking offers views over the Gareloch towards Helensburgh and beyond
The dining room and kitchen
The house extends to around 3200 square feet, with flexible accommodation arranged over four floors.
Every single room of the impressive property has doors opening onto decked areas or balconies, meaning the beautiful setting and views can be enjoyed from all angles.
The stunning sitting room
Bedroom one
The accommodation begins with an entrance hallway, and all the ground floor rooms sit off here.
To the right is the fabulous light-filled sitting room with double height glazed gable window, wood burning stove and striking inset log alcoves.
The bathroom
Bedroom two
The spacious dining kitchen with dining area and similarly stunning views, has sleek modern floor and wall units with integrated appliances and a central island with breakfast bar. There are sliding doors to a decked terrace.
From the kitchen is a door leading to the basement cinema room. The ground floor is also where a double bedroom, family bathroom with Jacuzzi bath, and study/home office are located.
There's a home cinema in the basement
Bedroom four
On the first floor are three further double bedrooms, all with access to the cleverly designed mezzanine level dressing rooms, balconies and en suite shower rooms.
The grounds have been landscaped with grassed areas and well stocked borders with a decked terrace for summer dining.
There is parking space for several cars, while a detached garage with workshop and tool store has, subject to planning, the potential to be converted into a holiday let.
