Woodside Tower, Shore Road, Cove, Helensburgh, Argyll And Bute G84

The West Coast of Scotland is known for its spectacular scenery with Argyll and Bute offering some of the most staggering vistas. Woodside Tower is positioned on the shore front within the picturesque village of Cove and enjoys uninterrupted views over Loch Long and the Firth of Clyde.

Originally dating back to the early 1850’s the B listed building known as Woodside was successfully converted into three dwellings in the 1960’s with this particular property now known as Woodside Tower being one of the largest created at over 2,200 square feet of accommodation which also retains the amazing tower which has triple aspects and magical internal spiral staircase accessed from the lounge.

Woodside Tower has a main door entrance to the rear of the building with the property being set over three levels. The clever configuration of the property has allowed the current owners to utilise an area as a successful Airbnb.

On entering the ground level consist of a welcoming hallway which has a useful store cupboard. The first floor has two spectacular living areas one of which is on an open plan basis with the kitchen and both having wood-burning stoves ideal for using all year round. The kitchen/dining/family room is vast in size and has an oversized bay-window which is an ever-changing picture with the Scottish seasons. The kitchen itself has been fitted with natural wood cabinets, solid wooden worktops and there is ample space for a large dining table and chairs. The formal lounge has a door accessing an internal turret staircase which elevates to a phenomenal room within the tower and as mentioned has far reaching triple aspect views over the water and surrounding countryside.

Woodside Tower has four well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom is particularly spacious and has the luxury of a magnificent En-suite bathroom which includes an original refurbished Art Deco suite and wall tiling. A family bathroom is also available which services the three other bedrooms and there is an additional staircase leading to a handy store area.

Particular note should mention Woodside Tower retains a wealth of period features thorough including detailed wood work and wonderful cornicing. The property offers the perfect balance of traditional living with modern comforts and has had many of the windows replaced with sash and case double glazing. The attention to detail throughout is flawless and a real credit to the current owners who have lovingly refurbished the property.

Externally Woodside Tower sits within glorious grounds with large private gardens solely belonging to Woodside Tower. Again, the attention to detail within the private gardens is evident and have been carefully designed to create a high level of privacy from neighbouring properties. Woodside Tower also has a private parking area with space for multiple vehicles.

The pretty village of Cove is situated on the Rosneath Peninsula and is around a twenty-five-minute drive from the larger town of Helensburgh. Cove is ideally located a short distance from both Faslane Naval base and Coulport and a passenger ferry is available from Kilcreggan to Gourock, ideal for commuting to Glasgow.
