2 bed flat for sale

1/2, 46 West Princes Street, Helensburgh G84

Occupying a preferred first-floor position within an attractive sandstone building in the very heart of Helensburgh, overlooking Colquhoun Square, this compact yet well-proportioned two-bedroom flat presents an exciting opportunity for purchasers seeking a centrally located home with excellent potential.

Although the property would benefit from a degree of modernisation throughout, this has been thoughtfully reflected within the highly attractive asking price, making it an ideal proposition for first-time buyers, investors, or those looking to create a stylish home tailored to their own taste and specification.

The property is entered via a secure communal entrance hallway, with access gained through the well-maintained communal stairway leading to the first-floor landing. Internally, the accommodation extends to a welcoming reception hallway providing access to all principal apartments. The bright front-facing lounge enjoys twin double-glazed windows overlooking the square, allowing an abundance of natural light to flood the room while complementing the traditional proportions, decorative cornicing, fitted carpeting, and current period character. The kitchen has been cleverly formed from the original bed recess area and offers a practical arrangement of floor and wall-mounted units, generous work surface space, vinyl floor covering, inset oven, electric hob, extractor hood, and a Bosch washing machine which is included within the sale price. Two good sized double bedrooms are provided, one positioned to the front and the other quietly situated to the rear. The rear-facing bedroom further benefits from additional storage area within a high-level cupboard housing the water tank. The internal bathroom is compact yet functional and comprises a four-piece suite including low-level WC, wash hand basin, panelled bath, bidet, and tiled splashback finishes surrounding the bath area.

Further features include double glazing throughout, enhancing both insulation and soundproofing, while to the rear of the building lie mature communal gardens featuring a pleasant selection of plants, trees, and shrubs. In addition, a private cellar/storage area is allocated for the personal use of this particular property. The building is factored and maintained by 91BC, and given the competitive asking price, early viewing is strongly advised. The selling agents anticipate significant interest during their marketing campaign.

Helensburgh itself remains one of the west coast’s most desirable towns, offering an excellent range of local amenities including independent shops, cafés, restaurants, supermarkets, leisure facilities, and highly regarded schooling. The property is ideally positioned within walking distance of the picturesque waterfront and promenade, while excellent public transport links include regular rail services providing direct access to Glasgow City Centre, Dumbarton, and beyond. Road networks are equally impressive, connecting swiftly to some of Scotland’s most scenic driving routes through Argyll & Bute, the spectacular countryside surrounding Loch Lomond, and the wider Highlands, making this an outstanding base for both commuters and lifestyle buyers alike.
