Located towards the end of a small traffic free cul-de-sac within the ever popular Ardgare estate, number 4 is a large detached family home that enjoys beautiful garden grounds that wrap around the house and enjoy some fantastic views across the waters of the Gare Loch. The gardens provide driveway parking for several cars leading to an integral double garage and to the rear of the property there are lawns on both sides and with an even larger lawn that faces across the water. There are patio areas and the gardens are sheltered and screened by a variety of mature trees, plants, bushes and shrubs.
The property offers exceptional family accommodation laid out over two floors and extending to around 2500 square feet in total. Many of the rooms enjoy fantastic views over the water and the layout is most versatile. On entering the house, on the ground floor, a large and welcoming reception hall features a staircase to the upper landing and from the hall there is access in to the patio, gardens and garage. On the other side of the hall there is access to a refitted modern wc/cloakroom with vanity wash hand basin. There is a useful downstairs study/home office adjacent to this and this space enjoys views through a large window across the gardens and the water. At the end of a passageway from the main reception hall there is a sizeable and delightful open plan lounge and dining room. A huge picture window in the lounge takes in views over the gardens and the water. The large kitchen has a window to the front of the house and comes complete with a range of appliances, wall and base units and a breakfast bar arrangement.
Moving to the upstairs, the large galleried landing also has a passageway off it and gives access to each of the rooms on this level. To one side of the landing is a bright and spacious family room that has windows to the rear, a picture window to the side and patio doors opening out on to a large balcony that takes in views over the water. Moving along from the landing there is a smaller bedroom adjacent to the family room and also three further double bedrooms that are most generously proportioned and feature built-in wardrobes. All these rooms have windows to the rear of the house. To the front, and again with water views, the master bedroom has large picture windows and it enjoys its own ensuite bathroom that features a separate bath, shower, wc and vanity wash hand basin. The main family bathroom is adjacent to bedroom two and has a bath, wc and vanity wash hand basin. The house is fully double glazed and is warmed by a system of gas fired central heating.
The village of Shandon is situated just to the north of Helensburgh and Rhu and is a delightful place to live, particularly with its loch side location and close proximity to a wide selection of amenities found in the neighbouring town. Rhu provides a good local primary school, church and convenience shops with Helensburgh offering more extensive amenities that include shops and supermarkets, bars, restaurants and cafes, along with train stations with services to Glasgow, Edinburgh and even London. There is great sailing on the Gare Loch, with the Royal Northern Clyde Yacht Club just a few minutes drive away and some of Scotland’s most spectacular scenery is literally on the doorstep and yet with Glasgow being with easy commuting distance as is the international airport.
