At the top of Glenburn Road, and only a couple minutes’ walk to The Cross, is this handsome double-bay fronted stone detached house.

 

A late Victorian home, it has been owned by our clients for the last forty-one years and has been the happiest of family homes. The original layout has been enhanced by them, significantly, by extending the rear, both ground and first floors, to add an enlarged kitchen, utility room, home office, bedroom 5 (and its ensuite), and bathroom. About five years ago, a custom designed garden room (conservatory) was commissioned and built and is a delightful, west facing, asset from which to enjoy the lovely rear garden.

 

Original features of plasterwork, doors, and fireplaces are augmented by more modern appointments such as kitchen fitments, sanitaryware, central heating (gas - Worcester Greenstar conventional boiler) and windows - all double-glazed including, superb quality, sash and case units (by Blairs timber window specialists) to front facing windows plus the side bay of the living room. Fireplaces are featured in the three principal public rooms (two with living flame, coal effect, gas fires, one an open fire) and the primary bedroom.

 

Decoratively, the subjects are presented in a calm, traditional, style and include flooring of bleached herringbone engineered oak (hall), original oak herringbone carpet border (lounge), Amtico (dining-kitchen, utility room and ground floor shower room), engineered wood effect laminate (office) and carpet elsewhere.


Outside

The property's garden is a delight and very private, bordered by privet, beech, laurel, and mixed hedges. Shaped lawns are to front and rear, and the planting is thoughtful and includes many a fine specimen, including a gorgeous Acer and over the front door, a magnificent Wisteria. A monobloc driveway, including a parking space to the front of the house and a car-charging point to the side, leads to a good-sized garage (reroofed with metal roof, and insulated, post Covid, and with power and light installed). The garden room (power, light, and electric heater) has been very well designed and is a great asset.

Location

The house is in prime Old Bearsden and in its sought-after Conservation Area and sits on the very line of what makes Bearsden world famous – the Roman Antonine Wall (AD 142 and a UNESCO World Heritage Site). The house is not listed.

It is minutes from the heart of the town, The Cross, and from the excellent shops, restaurants, and amenities to be found there. Buses run regularly to the West End and City Centtre and just south of The Cross and about a 10-minute walk, from the house, is Bearsden railway station. Bearsden Primary is at The Cross but also in Bearsden is the Junior School for The High School of Glasgow (Ledcameroch Road) and St Nicholas Primary (Duntocher Road). Secondary school is the high-performing Bearsden Academy (at Courthill). The High School's senior school is just south of Bearsden at Anniesland with The Glasgow Academy and Kelvinside Academy in Glasgow's West End, having Preparatory and Nursery Schools, respectively, in Milngavie.

Bearsden remains one of Scotland's top performing residential districts with its established road links to the West End and City Centre, in turn the M8 and M9 networks, and being some 20 minutes (off peak) to Glasgow Airport it is very convenient yet is but minutes from glorious countryside and only a 25-minute drive to the southeast corner of The Trossachs and Loch Lomond National Park.

Westfield is a home for a generation.
