**closing date Tuesday 7th November @ 12 noon** Clevedon Cottage is a unique
and hugely characterful detached country cottage. The original part of the
property is believed to date back 150 years and within the past ten years, a
significant, substantial, modern extension was added, to take full advantage
of the magnificent views across Loch Long. The cottage now extends to over
2100 square feet and sits in impressive, private and sheltered gardens. From
its elevated position above the loch, it enjoys magnificent aspects across the
water and the surrounding hills. The property is approached by a long private
driveway with electronic gates, which is tree lined and at the end of the
driveway there is a parking area for numerous cars leading to a sizeable
double car port in front the house. From here, a door leads in to a lovely
reception hall/entrance area and this provides good storage and leads to all
of the accommodation via an L shaped hallway. The property has been cleverly
designed, with the main public rooms and master bedroom taking advantage of
the best views and the centrepiece of the property is a spacious, bright and
contemporary living, dining kitchen area that enjoys full height windows
taking in views over the water and the gardens. There are distinct spaces
within this room, one of which is a comfortable sitting area with wood burning
stove, a separate dining space with access from here out to a large raised
balcony and on the other side of the room is a bespoke, modern well fitted and
fully equipped kitchen with feature central island unit. From this room, a
staircase descends down to the lower level of the property where there is a
sizeable utility area that gives access directly out to the gardens and has a
built - in cupboard and wc which is perfect for use when coming in from the
garden. Going back to the kitchen, living/dining area, off this room is a
second main public room which is a comfortable sitting room, again with access
out to the balcony and with beautiful views. At the far end of the reception
hall there is a large walk - in dressing room with built in cupboards and window
to the side of the house. Opposite the sitting room there is an additional
lounge which is a very cosy room and has a feature fireplace at its focal
point, with wood burning stove and with windows to the front. In total there
are four bedrooms in the property, with three being good sized double rooms to
the front of the house and one of these bedrooms having its own ensuite shower
room. The master bedroom suite takes in views over the water and features a
large double bedroom with French doors opening out on to its own private
balcony and it enjoys a luxurious ensuite shower room with walk in shower,
vanity wash hand basin and wc. The accommodation is completed by the main
family bathroom which has been refitted and has a separate bath, shower, wc
and wash hand basin. Having been extended and redeveloped, the property has
been fully modernised throughout and features gas fired central heating and
double glazing throughout.
The gardens are a striking feature of the house and as mentioned feature a
long driveway giving access to a parking area and carport. Beyond this there
are wooded areas that belong to the property and believed to extend to around
an acre. At at the rear of the house the main formal gardens feature a large
patio/terraced sitting area, colourful bedded areas and lawns that stretch
down away from the house. Mature trees provide privacy and screening and the
gardens enjoy some of the most magnificent views in the area over Loch Long.
The village of Cove is a delightful place to live, having a great community
feel and along with its neighbouring village of Kilcreggan provides local
convenience shops along with a highly regarded primary school and pedestrian
ferry serving Kilcreggan and Gourock. Across the water in Gourock there are
regular train service links to Glasgow. Cove is located on the Roseneath
peninsula and this is an area of outstanding natural beauty which is perfect
for those who enjoy the outdoors with great sailing available on the Firth of
Clyde and Loch Long, along with fantastic country walks locally, hill climbs
and an abundance of wildlife. Cove is well placed for access to the naval
bases at Faslane and Coulport which are major employers in the area and the
larger town of Helensburgh is around twenty five minutes’ drive away and
provides a wide selection of amenities including train services to Glasgow,
Edinburgh and even London. EPC Band - F.
