William Street, Helensburgh, G84

Ferhome Estate Agents are pleased to bring to market this impressive four-bedroom Victorian home, positioned within one of the town’s most sought-after areas and full of character throughout.

The house sits within a beautifully maintained, level garden, well screened from the road by a high stone wall and timber fencing, offering a good degree of privacy.

You enter via an attractive glazed porch, which leads into a spacious reception hall featuring a baronial archway leading to a feature staircase. This leads to the first floor, where there is a spacious dining kitchen complete with a range of integrated appliances. The space is bright and welcoming, benefitting from a large west-facing window along with a charming north-facing oriel window. Also on this level is an elegant dining room, rich in period features including an open fireplace and gothic revival style panelling. Both the kitchen and dining room have original stained glass in the Art Nouveau Glasgow Style. Completing this floor is a convenient shower room.

Continuing to the upper level, a generous landing gives access to a comfortable lounge with a bay window that allows for plenty of natural light, along with a cosy wood-burning stove. There is also built-in storage and a small study area off the lounge.

The property offers three well-proportioned double bedrooms and a fourth single bedroom. From this level, doors open out onto a large south-facing balcony, which enjoys lovely views over the Clyde Estuary. A beautifully presented traditional family bathroom, complete with a freestanding bathtub, completes the accommodation.

Additional features include a full-height basement providing excellent storage and laundry space, a double garage, and a separate summer house.
