A STUNNING Victorian villa with many of its traditional features close to the town centre of Helensburgh has come on the local property market.

Dating back to the 1850’s, this five-bedroom house is only a short walk away to enjoy the incredible views that the Firth of Clyde offers.

The house on William Street is set amidst glorious, mature and level gardens that are south and west facing to the rear, enjoying all day long sunshine.

The rear gardens are a magnificent feature of the house and stretch well away from the property with a large central expanse of lawn with colourful and well stocked flower and shrub beds on either side.

The stunning home extends to around 2,200 square feet over two levels which makes it perfect for a family or couple looking to appreciate what Helensburgh has to offer.

A beautiful formal lounge can be found at the front of the property. It features a large window, timber fire surround and a wood burning stove at its focal point.

Across the hall from the formal lounge is a downstairs double bedroom with a beautiful fireplace as its main feature. Like all rooms in this home, it has been decorated with neutral colours with plenty of opportunity to add character from potential buyers.
