This impressive five-bedroom sandstone detached villa offers a unique opportunity for renovation and investment set within one of Helensburgh's most esteemed residential locales. Nestled in a sought-after conservation area, Lower Sutherland Crescent features an intimate collection of nine striking Victorian villas, providing an ideal backdrop for family life with expansive views across shared green spaces and immediate access to the scenic Duchess Woods.
Number 9 presents a substantial period home situated on generous grounds that ensure both privacy and ample outdoor space, including beautifully landscaped gardens with mature trees and inviting patio areas perfect for social gatherings. Although already spacious at approximately 2,700 square feet, this property includes full planning permission for a two-storey side extension (Planning Ref: 24/01171/PP), enabling prospective buyers to expand the living area significantly while maintaining its existing charm.
The residence features original Victorian detailing such as ornate cornicing and cast iron radiators, alongside contemporary elements that enhance comfort. The ground floor is designed around a grand reception hall leading into an elegant living room and a family room ideal for entertainment. A versatile study can function as a fifth bedroom or home office, complemented by a convenient WC/cloakroom. The dining room connects pleasantly to a spacious kitchen which supports modern family living and offers easy access to both front and rear gardens through the adjacent utility/boot room.
Upstairs accommodates four generous double bedrooms including a principal suite with a charming bay window, alongside two family bathrooms that serve the upper level effectively.
With excellent transportation links to Glasgow and Edinburgh via nearby railway stations, along with access to quality local education options like Hermitage Academy and Lomond School, this property not only promises comfort but also represents an exceptional investment potential in one of Scotland’s prime locations.
