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.
There is a home office to the rear of the ground floor which could be used as an additional bedroom. This room also has a built-in shelved wall press.
On the other side of the hall is a family/dining room that overlooks the back gardens and from here, there is access through a small hallway in to the extended part of the property where there is a bright open plan kitchen and dining area.
This is a fantastic space for entertaining and has French doors opening out onto the patio, with further windows overlooking the gardens and also to the side, bathing the room in natural light.
There is a wood burner at its focal point and it comes with a range of appliances including a large range cooker.
To complete the ground floor is a well-fitted family bathroom which has a separate bath, shower enclosure, WC and wash hand basin.
Meanwhile upstairs the master bedroom is an enviable size that has two windows to the front of the house and a built-in shelved wall press.
There are also three further double-bedrooms, two that overlook the gardens and a larger bedroom to the front of the home with recessed alcove.
Further benefits include gas fired central heating.
The property is being marketed by Clyde Property for offers over £499,000; to find out more, call 01436 647390or take an extended online tour at tinyurl.com/VictorianVilla.
