View and comment on planning applications | Stirling Council
The garden is quite generous for this type of house and in addition to having a parking bay/drive created, at the front, has a newly built, and sizeable, garden shed with woodstore and sun veranda upon the rear garden. Good feeling of space here.

The property is located but a few hundred metres from the village centre where you will find an excellent range of amenities including a large Co-op, a Pharmacy, Opticians, Butchers, Bakers, Ironmongers, Village Pub, Post Office and the excellent Doyles Café. Balfron has a first-class Health Centre including a Dentist. The village is well known for its School Campus on which is the Primary School and a superb Secondary with swimming pool – available for the use of the village out with school hours. A bus service, with terminus, connects the village to surrounding districts and to Glasgow city. Balfron has its own Golf Course and Bowling Club. It is approximately 20 miles from Glasgow City Centre and 19 miles from Stirling. Milngavie suburb, and the nearest railway station, is some 12 miles away.
