5 bedroom detached house

Built by Cala Homes, Chapelacre Grove is a small and exclusive cul-de-sac development that is made up of a number of modern flats and substantial detached family homes. The detached properties within the grove rarely come to the market and number two is only the second such property to be sold in the last ten years.

The gardens to the front are entered by a monoblock paved driveway that provides parking for numerous cars and gives access to an integral double garage. On either side of the driveway there are lawned areas with a slabbed path leading from the pavement up to the main door. There is a further lawn to the side of the pathway. Adjacent to the front door there is a covered entrance vestibule with gravelled areas on either side. A pathway leads from the driveway around the side of the property to the back gardens that feature a large monoblock paved sitting area/terrace and beyond this there are well stocked, colourful and mature flower and shrub beds with additional gravelled areas. The gardens are enclosed by mature hedging and timber fencing and enjoy a good deal of privacy along with afternoon and evening sunshine.

Stylish in its design, the property is laid out over two floors and extends to around 2,000 square feet in total. The entrance vestibule opens in to a large and welcoming reception hall where a staircase features and ascends to the upper landing. From here, there is access to each of the downstairs rooms. There is a deep built-in cupboard adjacent to the front door and to the front of the house a useful downstairs study/snug. The spacious and bright lounge has a large window to the front of the property, a fireplace at its focal point and there is access through sliding doors into a lovely conservatory/sun room that takes in views over the gardens and has double doors opening out on to the patio. Adjacent to the lounge is a formal dining room which can be accessed from the hall or from the kitchen and the modern kitchen is spacious and well laid out with numerous wall and base units and enough space for a table and chairs. The kitchen features a range cooker and inbuilt dishwasher. Off the kitchen is a useful utility room with a door out to the side of the property. Finally on the ground floor is a wc compartment with wash hand basin. Moving on to the upstairs accommodation, the large galleried landing has a built-in storage cupboard and it gives access to five bedrooms. The master bedroom has a large window to the rear of the house and there are two sets of built-in wardrobes along with its own ensuite shower room which is spacious and features a shower, bidet, wash hand basin and wc. The four remaining bedrooms are all good sized double rooms with two of them having built in wardrobes (one to the front and one to the rear) and with the further bedrooms having windows to the rear of the house. The main family shower room has been refitted and features a large shower, vanity wash hand basin and wc. The property is warmed by a system of gas fired central heating and is fully double glazed.

Chapelacre Grove is located just off East Abercromby Street and is within a short distance of the town centre where there are an extensive range of local shops and supermarkets. Helensburgh provides a selection of bars, restaurants, cafes and delicatessens along with banks and a post office. Helensburgh Central train station and Helensburgh Upper station provide services to Glasgow, Edinburgh, up the West Highland line and even a sleeper to London. Helensburgh has good schooling (both at primary and secondary level) with private education found at the nearby Lomond School which is within walking distance. Loch Lomond is just a short drive away and some of Scotland’s most spectacular scenery can be found close to the town. Glasgow city centre and the international airport are both within easy commuting distance. EPC Band - D
