Atholl Gardens, Bearsden

This is the larger style of three bedroom Semi Detached House that WS Gordon built, in the 1960s, within the ever sought-after Mosshead estate. The house has been enlarged by a rear extension ,circa 1990, with the roof retiled in 2016 including replacing the soffits and facias in low maintenance uPVC (the extension was reroofed in 2008). Lovely situation within the small cul-de-sac that is Atholl Gardens.

Mosshead is one of the most admired areas of Bearsden due to its excellent primary school, proximity to Bearsden Academy, its accessibility to Bearsden Cross, and for being home to Bearsden Ski Club. WS Gordon, a renowned local builder, built Mosshead primarily post-war their houses being some of Bearsden's most popular for families and couples.

This is a brick built Semi Detached House located in the cul-de-sac address of Atholl Gardens. The house was extended about 35 years ago to add a TV room and a morning(dining) room to provide, then, a full 6/7 apartment home with kitchen and bathroom both of which have been fitted with modern units and suite respectively. Windows are all double glazed and there is gas central heating with a Baxi Platinum combi 28 HE boiler, the bathroom having the added luxury of underfloor heating (electric). The attic, accessed via a loft ladder, is floored and lined and has a Velux window - provides a very useful and accessible space.

Outside, the house sits upon a level garden which is noticeably broad at the front with a central drive flanked by two large areas of grass. The drive leads to a carport to the side of the house and to the rear of this is an attached garden storeshed in which the boiler is located (power and light installed). The rear garden is gated and is enclosed by fences and a hedge. It has a large slabbed patio and a small area of artificial grass. Beneath the extension is a low door providing subfloor access to not only the extension but the whole house.
