The Rectory is a striking Victorian semi-detached villa formed over three floors and sitting in Dumbarton’s premier address in the Kirktonhill conservation area. With views to the front and side towards the Firth of Clyde and over Levengrove Park, this magnificent home provides extensive accommodation that extends to over 3100 square feet in total, all of which displays beautiful period features and combines these with a high end specification, conducive with modern family life. The house also enjoys impressive garden grounds to the front, side and rear, where there are large expanses of lawn, patio sitting areas and at the rear, there is a large timber built summer house (with covered decked sitting area) and a Japanese inspired garden that has been created to include slabbed and pebbled areas, plunge pool and further sheltered spaces for sitting. To the rear of the house there are numerous stone built outhouses providing good storage and there is also a separate driveway access at the rear leading in to a monoblocked paved driveway and parking area that leads down the side of the house to the front gate.

On entering the property from the side, a covered portico (with seating on either side) gives access to the main reception hall which is a grand space and features a staircase to the upper accommodation. To one side of the hall is a spectacular bay windowed lounge with timber flooring, beautiful cornice work and a centre rose, along with a wood burning stove at its focal point. The lounge features an additional window to the side providing great natural light and views over the park. On the other side of the hall is a large downstairs double bedroom and behind the lounge is a separate formal dining room again with window to the front enjoying south facing aspects. Again this room features a wood burning stove at its focal point, lovely timber flooring and panelled walls. There is a newly fitted cloakroom/wc at the rear of the reception hall and beyond this, a door leads through in to the kitchen which has been beautifully refitted with contemporary wall mounted and counter level units and a large central island unit, with a range of appliances included and built-in. A door from here leads through to a rear hallway where a door gives access out to the gardens and beyond this there is a sizeable utility room. From the reception hall the staircase ascends to a first floor landing where the master bedroom can be found. This is a breathtaking bay windowed double bedroom, again with a side window providing even more natural light and from here there are fantastic views to the Firth of Clyde and over the park. Cleverly redesigned, the bedroom has an integrated and enclosed walk-in dressing room/wardrobe area and it enjoys its own ensuite facilities with a large ultra modern and stylish ensuite bathroom which has a bath, wc and wash hand basin. There are two further spacious double bedrooms on this floor, along with the main family bathroom which is extremely large and features a spa bath, hi-tech shower enclosure (with additional body jets) wc, wash hand basin and bidet. A further staircase from this level leads up to an additional two double bedrooms on the upper floor, both of which enjoy fantastic views and are great for teenagers. The property is warmed by a system of gas fired central heating and as mentioned the owners have considerably upgraded the property and modernised the windows.

Dumbarton is a vibrant town, sitting on the banks of the River Clyde. It has extensive local services and facilities and an excellent selection of shops including the St James Retail Park. It provides a good base in which to commute to Glasgow City and indeed further a field from the A82.

Levengrove Park which is adjacent to the property is a fantastic outdoor space and a truly beautiful spot leading down to the waters of the River Clyde and the River Leven and within it is the excellent Pavilion Cafe.
