Description
Ingleby Green is approached via a long cypress tree - lined driveway that
meanders round to an external courtyard with plenty of parking and a double
garage. This stunning home was constructed in the early 1970s of brick under a
tile roof in a sympathetic Georgian style. The generous family home extends to
approximately 4857 square feet of accommodation and includes an impressive
swimming pool complex. The property is surrounded by beautiful gardens and
woodland totalling around an acre. Ingleby Green has an elevated position,
designed to take advantage of the south facing aspect over the Firth of Clyde
but with total privacy.
The ground floor accommodation begins with an imposing long hallway with a
beautiful staircase to the first floor accommodation. The reception rooms
include an elegant drawing room with focal fireplace and twin sliding doors
leading into the dining room which has a door opening into the kitchen. The
sitting room has dual aspect views over the garden. The well - appointed kitchen
is of a bespoke design and includes a wide range of cabinets, plenty of
worktop space, high quality built - in appliances including an aga and space for
dining. Off the kitchen is a utility room, larder and separate store room. The
leisure wing is off the kitchen.
The first floor has five well - proportioned bedrooms with the principal bedroom
benefiting from excellent built in storage and a superb en suite bathroom
complete with twin wash basins, bath and shower. A roof terrace that looks
over the garden is accessed from bedroom three, while bedroom two has its own
access to the Jack and Jill family bathroom. There is a walk in linen cupboard
and extra built in storage in the bedrooms.
The leisure wing is impressive and has a 27 foot swimming pool under an atrium
roof, sauna, changing rooms, shower room and sitting area. French doors open
out onto the south facing terrace and garden.
Externally there are various outbuildings including a double garage, carport,
coal store, boiler room, greenhouse and garden store.
The gardens are breathtaking and are surrounded by lush green lawns, mature
shrubs and large trees offering privacy and an ever - changing outlook. The
lower garden has a natural pond with bridge and a fish pond with surrounding
deck.
Location
Rhu is a pleasant conservation village on the east side of the Gare Loch where
many lovely homes and gardens are found along a belt of low shore. Its
friendly community is centred around the church, primary school and yachting
life, as Rhu is the home of the famous Royal Northern and Clyde Yacht Club and
Rhu Marina houses many fine craft. There is testing sailing on offer on the
Firth of Clyde with quick access to the waters of the west coast of Scotland,
acclaimed as some of the finest racing and cruising grounds in the world.
The neighbouring town of Helensburgh (3. 1 miles) has been regarded as one of
the west of Scotland’s most desirable towns for well over a century since
wealthy Glasgow merchants first began to build houses here. It offers
excellent amenities including golf, bowling, specialist shopping,
supermarkets, and local secondary schooling. Lomond School provides private
schooling for day pupils and boarders. Further private schooling is easily
accessible in Glasgow which can be reached by rail with a journey time of
around 45 minutes.
Ingleby Green has good access to Glasgow with the A814, A82 and M8 allowing a
daily commute by car of under an hour in normal driving conditions. Glasgow
Airport is within 23 miles and offers a variety of regular domestic and
international flights.
Some of Britain’s most spectacular scenery is around the Loch Lomond area. The
loch is crossed by the Highland boundary fault and the physical
characteristics of lowland and highland Scotland can be seen within a few
miles of each other. Fronting the loch is the Cameron House Hotel and the
Carrick Golf Club which have excellent health club facilities, and the Loch
Lomond Golf Club which boasts an international membership and is a former host
to the Scottish Open Championship.
