Enjoying a lovely semi - rural location close to Helensburgh and within easy
reach of Cardross, Camis Eskan East Lodge was formally the lodge house to
Camis Eskan house. It is a delightful detached traditional cottage that
effectively has been completely rebuilt, modernised and updated by the current
owner. Being B listed the property is of architectural note and historic
interest and in light of its listing all of the work has been carried out
sympathetically and to an exceptionally high standard with a new natural slate
roof, re - rendered exterior and high performance double glazed windows fitted
throughout. In addition to the house the stone gate pillars and railings are
also listed. The property sits just off the main road between Cardross and
Helensburgh and is assessed by a traffic free lane which leads to the entrance
where a large red gravelled driveway to the front of the property provides
parking for numerous cars and enough space for boat/caravan storage. The
gardens extend to approximately 3⁄4 of an acre and wrap around the house on
all sides with large expanses of lawn with mature trees to the west of the
house and with a small burn meandering through the garden at the rear. The
gardens back on to open countryside and from the property there are lovely
open aspects towards the Firth of Clyde. There are two sizeable timber garden
sheds included in the sale, one of which has power laid on along with a wood
store and wrapping around the house to the front and side is a patio area
which is a lovely place to sit and enjoys all day long sunshine.
The interiors of the property is equally as impressive having been beautifully
remodelled, updated and modernised. It combines lovely period features along
with a high end modern specification and with versatile accommodation laid out
all on the level. On entering from the front an outer vestibule opens directly
in to a very large and comfortable open plan lounge with separate sitting
area. One feature of this room is the central wood burning stove and to the
side of the room is a large bay window with additional windows to the front of
the house providing great natural light. To one side of this room is a
beautifully styled dining room that features full height double glazed windows
and patio doors opening out on to the terrace. From the lounge a door leads
through to an inner hallway which has built in storage and this gives access
to the bedroom accommodation and the kitchen at the rear along with the main
family bathroom. There are two double bedrooms, one of which has a door out on
to the terrace and built in wardrobes along the length of one wall and with
the other bedroom enjoying its own ensuite shower room with a walk in shower
enclosure, wc and wash hand basin. The main family bathroom is beautifully
presented and is large with a separate shower, modern bath, wc and wash hand
basin. It is fully tiled. At the rear of the kitchen is a delightful country
style modern kitchen that features wall mounted and counter level units,
timber work surface areas and a tiled floor. There is a breakfast bar with
seating and three windows providing great natural light and overlook the
gardens at the rear. A door to the side leads out to the gardens. The kitchen
comes with a range of appliances that include an American style fridge
freezer, range cooker, washing machine and dishwasher. The house is fully
double glazed as mentioned and heating is by a gas fired system with under
floor heating throughout the property.
Whilst the address of the property is listed as Cardross, it is effectively
closer to Helensburgh than Cardross. Located on the main Cardross to
Helensburgh road, the centre of Helensburgh is just a few minutes drive away
and provides a wide selection of shops, supermarkets, bars, restaurants and
cafes. Closer still is the new Hermitage Academy and Morrisons store and just
beyond this Craigendoran railway station provides services to Dumbarton,
Glasgow and even Edinburgh. Aside from Hermitage Academy, Helensburgh provides
good primary and secondary schooling and Lomond School offers private
education facilities. There are further train stations in the centre of
Helensburgh, both Helensburgh Central and with the Helensburgh upper station
providing services up the West Highland line and also a sleeper service to
London. Helensburgh offers great leisure facilities and the picturesque
promenade and Colquhoun Square have recently had great investment and have
been modernised and landscaped. Glasgow is within easy commuting distance, as
is the international airport and Loch Lomond can be reached within about 15
minutes drive. EPC Band - C.
