Flat for sale in Henry Bell Street, Helensburgh, Argyll And Bute G84

Formed over the first and second floors of a substantial blonde sandstone building, located on the corner of Henry Bell Street and East Clyde Street, this completely unique conversion offers exceptional accommodation. Extending to over 3,700 square feet in total, the property was formerly run as a bed and breakfast establishment and as such would be perfect for similar use in the future. Although the property requires complete upgrading, modernisation and redevelopment (please refer to the Home Report), this is one of the most unique properties to come to the market of late in Helensburgh and retains some period features. It offers a versatile layout over its two floors and also comes with its own private garden area which is quite substantial and located to the rear of the building.

There is a main door entrance to the property with a staircase leading from the entrance hall on the ground floor up to the reception hall on the first floor. The spacious reception hall has a further staircase to the accommodation on the second floor. To the front of the property there are two large public rooms and the kitchen. Also on the level are four of the bedrooms, a utility room, wetroom and wc. Moving on to the upper floor there are a further five bedrooms, along with a bathroom. The bedrooms to the front take in great views over the Firth of Clyde and the bedrooms to the side have views of the surrounding hills. The property is warmed by a system of gas fired central heating (not tested).

Moving from the main entrance of the property around the side of the building there is access here to a private garage which is attached to the adjacent coach house. This area is unable to be used for vehicular means but provides great storage. It does have power and plumbing so could potentially be used as an office, workshop or craft room. Moving around to the rear, a path which is bounded by hedging and timber fencing leads to a private garden area which is enclosed by stone walls and hedging and features a large expanse of lawn, a patio/sitting area and BBQ set up.

The location of the property is fantastic, only a short walk from the town centre where a wide selection of amenities can be found. The property enjoys lovely views from some of the rooms over the Firth of Clyde and surrounding hills and as such the promenade is perfect for a stroll. Helensburgh provides good shops and supermarkets, bars, restaurants, cafes and delicatessens along with banks and a post office. There are a number of good schools in the area and a great selection of leisure facilities in and around the town. Some of Scotland’s most spectacular scenery is just a short drive away and this includes Loch Lomond and the Trossachs. Glasgow is within easy commuting distance and Helensburgh has three train stations serving Glasgow, Edinburgh, Oban, Fort William and even a sleeper service to London. EPC Band - E.
