A handsome blonde sandstone Detached House, circa 1900, set amidst a truly beautiful garden awash with specimen planting, colour, lawn, terraces, interest, and privacy.
The house is a classic Bearsden villa of seven principal apartments (3 reception rooms and 4 bedrooms) in addition to which is a conservatory, kitchen, large laundry/utility, 3 bathrooms, cloakroom/WC, and a very useful attic room (access via stair from first floor hall).
Whilst the decor and specification is of a certain vintage it has been a generally well maintained house and importantly has had some key improvements including a re-slated roof, double glazed windows, and a gas central heating system with a, 2013, Scottish Gas 532/i combination boiler. Outside, at the end of a long block-paved driveway is a large, detached garage with a remote-controlled door. To the other side of the back garden is a quality greenhouse.
The location of the house is superb, just minutes’ walk from Bearsden Cross and the excellent shops and amenities there. School catchment is Bearsden Primary and Bearsden Academy. In Bearsden, on Ledcameroch Road, is the Junior School for The High School of Glasgow with its senior school just south of Bearsden at Anniesland. On Duntocher Road is St Nicholas’ Primary and on Drymen Road is the Bearsden Early Years Centre. South of The Cross is Bearsden railway station with regular services to the West End and City Centre.
