We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
Located on a fabulous south facing plot on the lower west side of Helensburgh, 141 West Princes Street is a deceptively spacious five bedroom detached villa offering over 1,700 square feet of living space.
Internally and externally the property does require a degree of modernisation however properties of this size and location are extremely rare within the Helensburgh market.
On entering there is a beautiful entrance hallway which has a useful store cupboard. The lounge is a superb size and has a large picture window overlooking the private south facing garden.
The kitchen/dining room is again vast in size and is fitted with a selection of units and worktops and has a range style stove which is included in the sale.
Adjoining the kitchen is a side porch and large conservatory which has a patio door accessing the garden.
The ground floor has two good-sized double bedrooms, an additional study and modern shower room. Upstairs the property has three further bedrooms.
The main bedroom is a superb size at over twenty feet in length with the upper level enjoying partial views towards the river.
The upper level also has a large shower room with two additional store cupboards available on the gallery landing.
Externally the property sits within lovely mature south facing gardens which offer a high degree of privacy from neighbouring properties. To the side is a private driveway and detached garage.
The location of the property is ideal with the town centre being accessible by a level walk or a short car journey.
