Situated within convenient reach of the centre of Helensburgh, this generously proportioned three-bedroom upper apartment offers excellent potential for buyers seeking a property they can modernise and personalise to their own taste and specification. The accommodation is entered from the front into a welcoming entrance porch with stair access leading to a mezzanine level, where useful storage cupboards are provided. An electric stair lift is currently installed and may be included within the sale price of buyers so desire, offering additional accessibility and convenience.
Ascending further, the upper landing features fitted carpeting and access to the principal apartments. The bright front-facing lounge is of an impressive size and comfortably accommodates a three-piece suite together with substantial lounge furnishings, creating an ideal family living and entertaining space. The kitchen/dining room offers ample room for a breakfasting table and chairs and is fitted with a range of floor and wall-mounted units together with a wall-mounted Potterton boiler serving the gas central heating system. There is plumbing for a dishwasher and washing machine, space for a cooker, and a stainless-steel sink with side drainer and mixer tap is fitted below the rear facing window. While functional, the kitchen would benefit from upgrading and presents an excellent opportunity to add value. Three bedrooms are provided, two enjoying front-facing aspects, while the rear-facing bedroom benefits from an attractive window seat overlooking the gardens. The bathroom is fitted with a three-piece coloured suite, Velux window formation, and Triton electric shower. Further features include double glazing throughout, gas central heating, and notably generous room proportions. Externally, the property enjoys landscaped borders to the side of the access pathway leading to the enclosed private rear gardens, which are well proportioned, mainly laid to lawn and bordered by mature trees, shrubs, and hedging, creating a peaceful outdoor setting.
There is no denying the property requires a degree of modernisation internally; however, its attractive asking price reflects the upgrading required and presents an exciting opportunity for buyers looking to create a superb family home in a highly desirable location close to the town centre. Early viewing is therefore strongly recommended.
