ONE of the newest additions to the Helensburgh and Lomond property market this week is a village flat overlooking the bonnie banks that could set prospective buyers back a cool quarter-of-a-million pounds.

Described as an "ideal holiday home", the two-bedroom apartment, within the Lomond Castle development in Luss, is on the market for offers over £250,000 and is being marketed by Savills.

The property, which is currently vacant, is a well presented lower terrace apartment, situated in the well known Lomond Castle development, with access to local amenities at Balloch.

The accommodation features oak finishes throughout and begins with an entrance vestibule which leads into a welcoming hallway leading to all rooms.

A modern fitted kitchen with a range of base and wall mounted units and integrated appliances, and an immaculate bathroom complete the accommodation.
