Shorelands was constructed approximately 60 years ago and is a distinctive, unique and extremely spacious cedar detached family home. Set amidst beautiful, mature gardens and commanding magnificent views across the waters of the Gareloch, the property is in a much sought after location, just outside the conservation village of Rhu and close to the larger town of Helensburgh.

On entering the grounds from Aros Road, a long driveway leads to a double garage and provides parking for numerous cars and there is access around to the rear of the house and also to the main entrance at the front. The gardens are laid mainly in lawn, perfect for children to play in safety, all being completely enclosed and lined by mature trees which provide privacy and screening. A small, sheltered and sunny terrace leads from the main reception hall with steps down to the gardens themselves. The interior of the property is exceptional and extends to almost 3000 square feet in total with a flexible and versatile layout over its two floors. The ground floor consists of an entrance vestibule which opens into the large and welcoming reception hall. The hall is certainly large enough to accommodate a table and chairs at one end and, as mentioned, there is access out to a terrace via french windows. The staircase from here ascends to the bright and spacious upper floor accommodation.

At the end of the ground floor hall there is a comfortable family room that takes in lovely views across the garden through picture windows and there are further windows on the adjoining wall providing more borrowed light. Adjacent to the family room is a well equipped, modern and spacious kitchen with AGA stove at its focal point with a separate fan oven. Off the kitchen is a large utility room, again with access outside, and with an adjoining wc off. Opposite the family room is a formal dining room, with double aspect windows enjoying the views across the gardens and loch.

On the ground floor, there are three very generous double bedrooms, two of which enjoy beautifully refitted ensuite facilities and one which is used currently as a spacious home office. Moving to the upper accommodation, the large landing gives access to a magnificent formal Drawing Room which has full height picture windows taking in views over the water and with access to substantial eaves storage space. There are french windows and a Juliet balcony. This is a magnificent space for entertaining. There are a further two large bedrooms on this floor as well as the large main family bathroom which again has been refitted with a modern suite. The property benefits from gas fired central heating and is fully double glazed throughout.

Aros Road has established itself as one of the most sought after addresses in the area adjacent to the delightful conservation village of Rhu which sits on the shores of the Gare Loch and is close to Helensburgh and its wide selection of amenities. Faslane Naval Base is only a short drive away and the village of Rhu itself has a lovely church, convenience store and a renowned primary school. In Helensburgh, a wide selection of shops and supermarkets can be found along with bars, restaurants and cafes as well as train stations with services to Glasgow and Edinburgh and even a sleeper service to London. Loch Lomond is nearby and Glasgow can be reached by car, bus or train in around thirty five to forty minutes. The international airport is also within easy reach via the A82 and the Erskine Bridge.
