MANY of the most handsome homes in Helensburgh have undergone significant internal works since they were built, as the requirements of the wealthy merchants and business owners who built them in the 19th and early 20th centuries gave way to the needs of more recent owners.
Few, though, are more eye-catching than the conversion at 20B Queen Street – new to the local property market for offers over £215,000.
Located in one of Helensburgh’s most sought after west end locations, the property is part of a magnificent B listed mansion house which has been split into three residential dwellings.
The flat itself is vast and is split over two levels. On the ground floor there is a large entrance area which makes a lovely study/snug, and a beautiful hallway which is just under 30 feet long.
The ground floor also boasts two large double bedrooms – the master has plentiful built-in storage, as well as access to the bathroom, which is on a ‘Jack and Jill’ arrangement with the hallway.
The original house’s magnificent staircase also forms part of the converted property, and leads to the formal lounge – a fabulous entertaining space which is full of period features, including wood panelling.
There’s also access from the lounge to a small south-facing balcony with beautiful views towards the River Clyde, as well as a useful store cupboard.
A new kitchen has recently been installed in the property and features modern units and a range of integrated appliances.
The flat has gas central heating and more beautiful period features, and outside there’s a garage and parking area.
The property is being marketed by the Colquhoun Square office of estate agents Allen and Harris. For more information, including additional photos and a video tour, go to bit.ly/queenstreetconversion, and to arrange an appointment to view the property in person call 01436 672134.
