Description

Set within approximately 3.3 acres in one of Gourock's most prestigious residential settings, this exceptional development site presents a rare chance to deliver six luxury homes in an outstanding location and is available to purchase through Bowman Rebecchi – The Home of Property.

Enjoying an enviable elevated setting overlooking the Firth of Clyde, the site benefits from full planning permission for six substantial contemporary detached homes, each arranged over three storeys and thoughtfully designed to maximise panoramic coastal views whilst integrating harmoniously within this established and highly desirable residential setting.

Set amongst mature woodland and bounded by Gourock Golf Club, the development combines exceptional privacy, breathtaking scenery and architectural ambition to create what promises to become one of Inverclyde's most exclusive residential addresses.

Development opportunities of this calibre, size and location are exceptionally scarce and as such we expect this to be a popular site.

A LANDMARK DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITY

Rosemount Place has long been recognised as one of Gourock's premier residential addresses, characterised by individually designed detached homes occupying generous plots with spectacular views across the Clyde towards Argyll and the Highlands beyond.

Extending to approximately 3.3 acres, the site occupies an elevated, south-west facing position that naturally lends itself to high-quality executive housing.

Planning permission has been secured for the construction of six individually designed luxury detached residences, each extending across three levels and offering generous internal accommodation suited to modern family living.

The approved scheme has been carefully considered to complement both the surrounding landscape and the established character of Rosemount Place, creating an exclusive collection of homes that combine striking contemporary architecture with the exceptional natural setting.

With planning already secured, purchasers have the opportunity to commence development without the uncertainty and time associated with obtaining consent, allowing immediate progression towards delivery of an exceptional residential project.

THE APPROVED DEVELOPMENT

The consented scheme provides for six impressive detached family homes designed to appeal to the upper end of the residential market, with expected sales figures to be in the region of £700,000 to £800,000.

Each property has been designed across three spacious floors, offering expansive open-plan living accommodation, multiple reception areas, generous bedroom provision, integral garaging and extensive private gardens.

The elevated positioning allows each home to capitalise on uninterrupted views across the Firth of Clyde while maintaining privacy through considered orientation and landscaping.

The development has been carefully planned to preserve the mature woodland character of the site, creating a setting that is both secluded and visually striking.

This is an opportunity ideally suited to regional housebuilders, bespoke developers or private investors seeking to deliver a premium residential scheme within one of Inverclyde's most sought-after coastal locations.

AN OUTSTANDING LOCATION

Few locations on Scotland's west coast combine accessibility, scenery and established prestige quite like Gourock.

Positioned on the southern shores of the Firth of Clyde, the town enjoys a reputation for elegant Victorian architecture, vibrant waterfront amenities and excellent transport connections to Glasgow and beyond.

Rosemount Place sits within one of Gourock's most desirable residential enclaves, quietly positioned above the town centre whilst remaining within easy reach of local shops, cafés, restaurants, highly regarded schooling and everyday amenities.

Residents benefit from excellent road links via the A8 and M8 motorway network, providing convenient access to Glasgow City Centre and Glasgow Airport, while regular rail services connect Gourock directly with Glasgow Central.

The town also serves as a major ferry gateway to Dunoon and the Cowal Peninsula, further enhancing its appeal for commuters and leisure travellers alike.

For those pursuing an active lifestyle, the development sits adjacent to Gourock Golf Club and within close proximity of the Royal Gourock Yacht Club, coastal walking routes, marinas and a wealth of outdoor recreational opportunities.

Perhaps the site's greatest attribute is its remarkable outlook. From its elevated hillside position, the development commands breathtaking panoramic views stretching across the Firth of Clyde towards Dunoon, the Argyll coastline and the rolling Highland landscape beyond.

The ever-changing seascape provides a dramatic backdrop throughout the seasons, with spectacular sunsets and passing marine traffic creating an exceptional living environment that few developments can rival.

It is this unique combination of natural beauty, privacy and accessibility that distinguishes Rosemount Place as one of the region's most compelling residential opportunities.

INVESTMENT POTENTIAL

Premium development sites with planning permission in established coastal locations are becoming increasingly difficult to secure, making Rosemount Place an outstanding proposition for developers and investors alike.

The combination of an exceptional 3.3-acre site, full planning consent, a prestigious residential address and limited availability of comparable opportunities creates a highly attractive development prospect. Demand for high-quality executive homes within Gourock continues to remain strong, particularly for contemporary family residences offering generous accommodation, private gardens and uninterrupted views across the Firth of Clyde.

Based on prevailing market conditions and the quality of the approved scheme, the completed homes are anticipated to achieve individual end values in the region of £700,000 to £800,000, subject to final specification, interior finishes and landscaping. This positions the development firmly within the upper tier of Inverclyde's residential market and presents the opportunity to deliver a landmark collection of luxury homes with significant sales potential.

In addition to the existing consented scheme, the scale and configuration of the site may present opportunities for an alternative development approach, subject to the necessary planning consents.

Prospective purchasers may wish to explore the potential to increase residential density or introduce a mix of housing types, including luxury apartments, reflecting successful neighbouring developments where apartment accommodation has been delivered alongside executive homes. Any such proposals would be subject to detailed design and the approval of the local planning authority, but the site's generous proportions and established residential setting offer considerable scope for future development aspirations.

Whether delivered in accordance with the current planning permission or through a revised scheme, Rosemount Place represents an exceptional opportunity to create one of the West of Scotland's most desirable new residential addresses, combining architectural quality, outstanding views and strong investment credentials.
