Formed the ground floor of a handsome blonde sandstone Victorian villa which is believed to date back to around 1862, “Rossland” is a beautiful, stylish and characterful conversion. The main house is home to three separate properties with an upper flat above “Rossland” and with a housekeeper’s extension having been added to the property some years later and designed by the famous architect William Leiper.
The property is entered from East Montrose Street with a sweeping driveway leading up to the front of the house and providing private parking to the side of the property. The gardens to the front are private to “Rossland” and offer a large expanse of lawn with patio areas and bedded borders. The gardens enjoy all day long sunshine (being south facing) with views across Helensburgh to the Firth of Clyde. There is access around the side of the property to a private drying green at the rear and from here, a further pathway leads to a garage block where the property enjoys its own single car lock up garage which can be accessed from Havelock Street. Power and light is installed.
As with a home of its age, the property displays many beautiful and ornate period features that include decorative cornicing, ceiling roses, picture rails and attractive timber panelled interior doors. The two main rooms to the front of the property also display period fire surrounds with a wood burning stove in the lounge and a living flame gas fire in the main bedroom. The property is spacious, well laid out and is in true walk-in condition with tasteful décor complimented by good quality carpets and floor coverings and with some of the rooms featuring natural timber flooring. On entering from the front, a large and welcoming reception hall gives access to the main lounge which is a sizeable bay windowed room and as mentioned has a wood burning stove at its focal point and with lovely sunny views from here across to the Firth of Clyde. On the other side of the reception hall is the master bedroom which again is a large bay windowed room with south facing aspects and with a feature fire surround and living flame gas fire. Moving to the rear of the reception hall, a passageway (which has extensive built-in storage) leads to the main guest bedroom which also enjoys a front facing southerly aspect and is a well proportioned double room. The third bedroom has a window to the rear of the property and deep and spacious built-in wardrobes to one side. The lovely dining kitchen is large enough to accommodate a dining table and chairs and it comes with modern wall mounted and counted level units, a good run of worktops and with an inbuilt double oven, gas hob, extractor hood, washing machine and with a free standing fridge/ freezer. A large window to the rear provides good natural light and there is a small vestibule opening on to the back of the property with a pathway from here leading to the garage. The bathroom is modern and stylish, being fully tiled and it comes with a separate bath and walk-in shower with glazed screen, along with a wash hand basin and wc. The property is warmed by a system of gas fired central heating.
East Montrose Street is a popular and well established residential street within Helensburgh, home to substantial and attractive homes and within easy reach of the town centre.
