Translating to The White House in Gaelic, this bespoke family home offers a rare sense of privacy and tranquillity, with expansive views sweeping across the Gare Loch, Rhu Point and the Clyde estuary.

Built circa 1976 and owned by the same family since 1987, Tigh Geal has been meticulously maintained and sympathetically updated, preserving the mid-century soul of its design aesthetic while adding modern comfort. Full-height glazing, multiple balconies, and extensive open-plan interiors characterise this unique home — designed to bring the outside in.

It is a a home of singular style and one of striking design, conceived from the advantages of its delightful private hillside setting, the adjoining countryside and woodlands, and the southwards views to the Gare Loch.
