From its elevated position overlooking the shore road and commanding fantastic views across the Gareloch across to the Rosneath peninsula, Garden Cottage is a delightful and characterful detached family home. The property dates back to the early 20th century and offers over 1400 square feet of accommodation over its two floors. The property is beautifully presented, well laid out and enjoys bright and spacious rooms.

The house sits in stunning garden grounds, with the extensive front gardens being mainly lawned for ease of maintenance with play areas for children, gravelled and slabbed patio and sitting areas and the fantastic views over the water. There is a lovely timber children's playhouse included. There is extensive parking at the bottom of the garden with a large parking bay for two cars. A gate from the driveway opens into the gardens, with a path leading around the side to the gardens at the rear. The back garden is very sheltered and private and gently terraced with two lawned areas. Timber fencing and stone walls enclose the gardens and there is a timber shed.

On entering the house, an outer entrance vestibule opens in to a welcoming reception hall with a staircase to the upper landing. Off the hall there is access through to a sizeable lounge with large picture bay window to the front and with a wood burning stove at its focal point. Adjacent to the lounge is a fantastic dining room, again taking in the lovely water views through large windows and with a door opening out to the gardens. The modern, well fitted kitchen comes with a range of wall mounted and counter level Shaker style units and with a number of appliances. Two large windows overlook the gardens. Finally on the ground floor there is a good sized double bedroom that enjoys its own modern ensuite bathroom which is fully tiled and has a free-standing bath, wc and wash hand basin. Moving on to the upstairs accommodation the landing gives access to two very impressive double bedrooms, both of which enjoy the best views in the house over the Gare Loch and have extensive built-in wardrobes/storage. There is also a stylish modern refitted shower room on this floor with shower enclosure (rainfall shower), wc and vanity wash hand basin. The house is warmed by a system of mains gas fired central heating and all the windows are replacement double glazed uPVC units.

The location of the property is fantastic, within the picturesque village of Shandon which is located adjacent to Rhu and only a short distance from the larger town of Helensburgh. There are a good range of local amenities found in Rhu with a convenience store, highly regarded primary school and church and with Helensburgh providing a wider selection of shops and supermarkets, leisure facilities, bars, restaurants and cafes. There are great transport links in Helensburgh with train stations providing services to Glasgow, Edinburgh, up the West Highland Line and even a sleeper service to London. The iconic shores of Loch Lomond are nearby and provide stunning scenery and world class leisure and accommodation. The nearby naval base at Faslane is a major employer in the area and is just a couple of minutes’ drive to the north. Glasgow is also within easy commuting distance as is the international airport via the A82 and the Erskine bridge. EPC Band - E.
