Located just off Back Road in the picturesque village of Clynder, Mount Pleasant Cottage is perfectly placed for those who enjoy the outdoor life, with sailing on the Gareloch and some beautiful countryside to be found nearby.

The cottage dates back around 150 years and is a deceptively spacious traditional building that enjoys a very private setting, surrounded by mature trees and extensive gardens that incorporate a timber stable block for two horses.

With a decked terrace to the front enjoying views across the Gare Loch and the surrounding hills, this property is laid out over two floors and offers fantastic accommodation.

You enter via the front into the conservatory - a large, bright space which is a perfect additional public room and is situated just off the beautifully fitted and well equipped kitchen that features a Raeburn stove, extensive built-in units and granite worktops.

From here there is a door through to the main hallway which has a door out to the rear of the property.

Off the hall, at one end, is the feature lounge, which has a wood burning stove at the focal point, windows to the front and access to one of the downstairs bedrooms which has a useful mezzanine storage level above, accessed from the lounge.

This bedroom is a good sized room with a window to the front.

Moving back along the hall from the lounge, there are two bedrooms off the hall to the rear of the property, and at the far end of the hall a spiral staircase ascends to the main bedroom on the upper floor.

Finally on the ground floor is a beautifully fitted modern bathroom with a white three piece suite and a shower above the bath.

The large double bedroom upstairs has built-in wardrobes and enjoys a great deal of natural light with Velux windows to both front and rear and with lovely views across the Gareloch.

The house is approached from Back Road up a gently sloping driveway which has lawned gardens on either side and is lined by mature trees, bushes and shrubs.

To the rear, the gardens are mainly wooded with pathways, and at the side there's a gravelled area with a shed.

The timber stable block is located to the rear and is accessed by a few steps from the back of the property.

The amenities of Clynder, Rosneath, Kilcreggan and Cove are all close by, including the primary schools in Rosneath and Kilcreggan, while Helensburgh is no more than 25 minutes' drive away.
