A charming and particularly versatile detached bungalow, 18 Benview Road offers an excellent opportunity to acquire a generously proportioned home within the ever-popular Clarkston area. With accommodation arranged over two levels, the property provides an adaptable layout that can be configured to suit a variety of lifestyles, whether for family living, downsizing without compromising on space, working from home or creating additional guest accommodation.
The property is entered through a welcoming entrance porch which opens into a central reception hall, immediately giving access to the principal ground-floor apartments.
To the front of the property is a generously proportioned lounge, a comfortable and inviting main reception room with ample space for a variety of furniture arrangements. Also positioned to the front is a separate dining room. Given the flexibility of the layout, this room could equally work well as an additional bedroom, family room or home office, depending on individual requirements.
Continuing through the hall, there are two bedrooms on the ground floor. Bedroom One is a particularly well-proportioned double bedroom, while Bedroom Two provides further comfortable accommodation and benefits from fitted wardrobe space. Again, the adaptable nature of the property means that the bedrooms and reception rooms could be used in a number of different ways, allowing the layout to evolve with the needs of the next owner.
The ground floor accommodation is completed by a family bathroom and kitchen. The kitchen is positioned to the rear of the property and provides direct access outside, making it particularly convenient for enjoying the garden and outdoor space.
A staircase from the hall leads to the first floor, where the accommodation continues with Bedroom Three, an impressive and unusually spacious room which benefits from a Velux window. Adjacent is a walk-in wardrobe, providing useful additional storage. There is also a substantial separate storage room on this level which further enhances the practicality of the home.
Externally, the property benefits from a detached garage, providing useful additional parking and storage space.
One of the real strengths of 18 Benview Road is the versatility of the accommodation. With bedrooms available across both levels and two separate reception rooms on the ground floor, the house offers considerable scope for purchasers to tailor the space to their own requirements. A formal dining room could readily become another bedroom or home office, while the upper level could provide an ideal principal or guest bedroom arrangement, making this a home capable of adapting to different stages of life.
