3 bedroom detached bungalow for sale

Located towards the end of Queen Street on the upper west side of Helensburgh, this modern, beautifully designed, all-on-the-level detached bungalow sits in magnificent garden grounds. The house is completely sheltered and screened from the road and the gardens are entered through a timber gate into a sweeping gravelled driveway that provides extensive parking for numerous cars, boats/caravans to the side and front of the house. The driveway leads to an integral garage at the side where an electronically operated up and over door opens in to a spacious double garage with workshop to the rear (power, light and heating is installed). The gardens feature a beautiful sheltered courtyard area in front of the house which is south facing, enjoying all day long sunshine and with slabbed sitting areas and an ornamental pond, all bounded by attractive, mature shrubs, bushes, plants and trees. The gardens continue down the other side of the house with pathways leading to an enclosed and sheltered rear garden with stone wall on the boundary and featuring fruit trees, lawns, patio and a pathway. There is a greenhouse and a garden shed. The location of the house is fantastic, being very quiet, almost traffic free and yet within easy reach of the town centre and a wide selection of amenities.

The interior of the property is pleasantly laid out, with spacious rooms, many of which are south facing and enjoy a great deal of natural light. On entering from the driveway a covered vestibule opens into a welcoming reception hall which has a built-in store/coat cupboard. From here there is access through to a modern refitted shower room which also serves the second bedroom. Also off the reception hall is the main lounge which is a spacious and bright public room with windows and French doors overlooking the gardens and pond. There is a feature slate fire surround with open fire, with external access for cleaning the grate and the room is large enough to accommodate a dining table and chairs if required. Also beyond the reception hall is a large dining hall with doors out to the gardens. From here there is access to the kitchen which has a small sitting area and comes with extensive wall and base units and a cooker and microwave. The kitchen enjoys views over the pond and next to the kitchen is a sizeable utility room with side door out to the gardens. The third bedroom is currently laid out as a home office with beautifully crafted custom built furniture, it enjoys its own ensuite bathroom and the second bedroom (which shares the Jack’n’Jill shower room) has a window to the rear and is also a good sized double bedroom. The master bedroom is at the end of a small corridor where there is a built- in airing cupboard and it is a very impressive and extremely large double room with built-in wardrobes along the length of one wall and again with its own ensuite bathroom. The house is warmed by an electric air source heat pump, there are solar panels (not tested) and there are double glazed windows throughout.

Queen Street is an established, popular and quiet part of Helensburgh and the house is within walking distance of the town centre where a wide selection of shops, supermarkets, bars, restaurants, banks and a post office can be found. Helensburgh Central train station is in the town centre providing services to Glasgow and Edinburgh and Helensburgh Upper station is just around the corner with services up the west coast and with a sleeper service to London. Helensburgh offers great leisure facilities, with numerous sports clubs in and around the town and with the new Helensburgh swimming pool and gym complex on the pier. The shore front in Helensburgh is very picturesque, with views across the Firth of Clyde and Loch Lomond is only a short drive away providing world class leisure and accommodation facilities. Glasgow is within easy commuting distance as is the international airport via the Erskine Bridge and M8. EPC Band - D.
