Property description
Enjoying a magnificent corner plot on the corner of Suffolk Street and West Princes Street, this distinctive and highly individual detached property dates back to the early 1800's and offers exceptional family accommodation.
The extensive walled gardens that wrap around the house offer large on three sides and a patio/ sitting area adjacent to the garage which can be accessed from West Princes Street. They are very private and have a gravelled driveway leading to house. Due to the size of the gardens, there is development potential (subject to planning permission being granted). There are several outbuildings adjacent to the house, with a store next to the garage, a separate building on the other side of the house that is divided into two separate utility/storage areas and a store/gardener’s toilet to the rear.
The house itself, whilst requiring a fair degree of modernisation and upgrading offers delightful period features throughout its accommodation which extends to over 2100 square feet in total. With a number of rooms on the ground and first floor, the property offers a versatile layout and consists of an entrance vestibule opening in to a grand, timber panelled reception hall with staircase to the upper landing. To the front of the property are two formal public rooms with the spacious lounge enjoying south facing aspects from a large bay window. It has a feature marble fire surround and with the dining room on the other side of the hall also enjoying lovely sunny views to the south and again with a feature fire surround. The well proportioned kitchen has a large walk-in pantry off and a rear porch giving access out to the back of the house where there is a path and a gate onto West Princes Street. There are two generous double bedrooms on the ground floor as well as an ‘L’ shaped shower room which is effectively a wet room with a wc and wash hand basin. Moving on to the upstairs accommodation, the landing gives access to three further bedrooms along with a home office which could be used as a sixth bedroom if required.
As mentioned, the property is located in the much sought after lower west side of town and is therefore within easy walking distance of the town centre and also the shore of the Firth of Clyde. Helensburgh offers a wide selection of amenities that include a variety of shops as well as supermarkets, bars, restaurants and cafes and with banks and a post office also in town. Helensburgh Central train station is in the town centre and provides direct services to Glasgow and Edinburgh with Helensburgh Upper station which is just of Sinclair Street, provides a service up the west coast of Scotland and a sleeper service to London. Good schooling can be found in Helensburgh (both at primary and secondary level) and with the private Lomond School just around the corner being within walking distance. Loch Lomond has iconic scenery and is just a short drive away and Glasgow and the international airport are both within easy reach. EPC Band - E.
