187 Maxwell Avenue, Bearsden, Glasgow, East Dunbartonshire, G61 1HS
3 Description
Of a style rarely available to the open market, this is a sizeable, stone-fronted, detached villa that dates from the Art Deco period (1926) with three good-sized double bedrooms, and two public rooms (plus conservatory), in the Westerton district of Bearsden. Situated on Maxwell Avenue, there are no properties opposite, and the house affords, therefore, a fine open, southwards, panorama across Glasgow. A simply charming home deserving of prompt first hand inspection.
Set in a good-sized plot on an incline from front to rear, its lovely rear garden is a very private space that backs onto the established greenery of the Cairnhill Woods. A perfect area for child’s play (with an expanse of lawn), with sections for outdoor seating. The property features double glazing with PVCu surround and gas central heating provided by a Worcester Bosch Greenstar 30i ERP boiler. Initial first-hand inspection will showcase the beautiful stone frontage of the building, which is complimented by white dressings to the gable end and window surrounds. The property is set under a pitched slate roof.
Internally, the room sizes are generous throughout, with high ceilings really accentuating the feeling of space and light to be found across the accommodation. Our suite of HDR photographs, video, 360° matterport tour and floorplan provide ample material for desktop review, with a summary of the accommodation to be found as follows:-
Summary of Accommodation
Entrance vestibule through to welcoming reception hallway, large bay windowed lounge with feature fireplace (currently electric – open fireplace still intact and potential for log burner), formal dining room (great size – could be utilised as additional sitting room), nicely finished kitchen with shaker style units, breakfasting area, and ‘range’ style cooker, utility area off, conservatory/sun room (double door access out to area of decking) with beautiful outlook to the rear garden, toilet with inset sink. Upstairs, there is a generous hall with large storage cupboard (boiler housed here), with Ramsay ladder access to a fully floored attic space (also with central heating and an electric supply) which offers great development potential. The three double bedrooms are all of a very good proportion (the principal bedroom provides exceptional views), with a three-piece family bathroom completing the accommodation.
The property features a beautifully kept rear garden – laid mainly to lawn and with a lovely selection of small trees and colourful deciduous plants. There is an area of timber decking (perfect for al fresco dining) accessible directly from the conservatory.
Situation
Westerton is set to the southerly fringe of Bearsden, just to the north of Anniesland, and is highly popular due in no small part to the railway station and the primary school. There are several enjoyable woodland walks on your doorstep. Also at Westerton is a library and a very handy general store. Major shopping facilities can either be found in Bearsden (Asda, Sainsbury’s, Marks & Spencer’s Simply Food) or at Anniesland (Morrisons, Aldi or Marks & Spencer’s Simply Food). Westerton train station provides excellent rail links to Glasgow (West End/City) and beyond. School catchments are Westerton Primary and Boclair Academy, with the latter featuring a recently completed, state of the art campus.
