The property itself was built in 1880 and provides exceptional accommodation over two stories and also includes a further staircase leading to a sizable games room on the top floor. The house is one of the rare ones in Helensburgh which has full height rooms on the entire first floor level and therefore creates a much greater feeling of space and also enhances what are already fantastic views over the gardens and beyond to the Clyde Estuary.
Internally the accommodation extends to around 3200 sq ft which makes this one of the areas largest properties and therefore provides ample opportunities for versatile use of the apartments depending on family requirements.
The property is in a fantastic private setting and indeed when you look out most of the windows all you can see are mature trees and a few of the original properties of Helensburgh which will take you back to period when these prominent houses were the only ones in the area which is why they are located in such sought after locations.
The garden grounds themselves extend around 0.6 of an acre, are mainly level and screened by selection of mature shrubs and original boundary wall.
Gowanlea is accessed off Charlotte Street and the driveway leads to a large chipstone parking area at the front and side. Adjacent to the house is a double car garage with separate up and over doors and beside this is a separate brick built outbuilding with pitched slate roof and access door to the side.
Internally the accommodation comprises large reception hallway with original staircase leading to the upper level. There is a bay window drawing room, separate dining room with front facing windows, further family room at the rear and downstairs double bedroom and bathroom. At the rear hallway, behind the stairs, are a couple of large store areas and a further door opening to the back garden.
Also on this level is a further sitting room/breakfast room which leads to the large dining sized kitchen which has an abundance of modern storage units, space for table and two windows offering a great outlook over the garden. Behind this is a large utility room with door to the rear.
On the first floor level there are four large double bedrooms, main family shower room which has a newly installed large walk-in shower, wash hand basin and w.c.
