Summary - Cranley House, East Montrose Street, Helensburgh, G84 7ER G84 7ER
5 bed 3 bath Detached
Large five-bedroom detached Victorian villa, three storeys
Cranley House is a substantial Victorian detached villa positioned on a prominent corner in one of Helensburgh’s desirable residential pockets. The home combines generous period rooms, high ceilings and original cornicing with adaptable modern living spaces — a large lounge flowing into a bright conservatory with electric underfloor heating, a bay-windowed dining room and a modern kitchen with AGA and walk-in pantry. The property’s five bedrooms, three bathrooms and a unique top-floor sitting room deliver flexibility for family, multi-generational or home-working arrangements.
Externally the house is complemented by landscaped private gardens, a contemporary patio, detached garage and a self-contained studio/granny flat with kitchenette and WC — useful for extended family, guests or rental income. Panoramic windows on the upper level provide open views over the Firth of Clyde, adding a distinctive appeal to the upper living space.
Practical considerations are straightforward: the house is freehold, double glazed and gas central heated, but the Energy Performance Certificate is currently rated E. Broadband speeds in the area are reported as very slow, and council tax is described as quite expensive. The property sits within a local area classification of Comfortable neighbourhoods but the wider area classification notes delayed retirement and greater deprivation indicators; buyers should factor local demographics into long-term plans.
Cranley House will suit a buyer seeking substantial living space, strong period character and flexible accommodation close to Helensburgh’s waterfront and amenities. It’s an attractive option for families wanting room to grow, for multi-generational households needing separate living space, or for purchasers evaluating long-term rental potential from the studio annex.
