Rutherford Drive, Lenzie, Kirkintilloch, Glasgow, G66

A spectacular double aspect two bedroomed luxury first floor flat extending to approximately 96 square metres within the James Salmon Building.

Glasgow architect James Salmon (1805-1888) would be proud of the restoration works carried out by Charles Church, breathing new life into the handsome building he originally designed at Woodilee Village in Lenzie. Originally an administration building, the construction extends over three floors (including basement level) and is truly original throughout.

The accommodation extends to a large entrance hallway with in-built storage, outstanding open plan lounge/dining room with three large windows across two walls flooding the room with natural light and an extensively fitted kitchen with integrated appliances. The two double bedrooms have both been enhanced by the addition of stylish fitted wardrobes with the master benefitting from a large en-suite shower room. A three piece bathroom completes the accommodation on offer. The property features high quality Karndean flooring throughout the entrance hall, lounge diner and kitchen. Further benefits include security alarm, security entry and private residents parking as well as visitors parking. In addition there is private loft space for extra storage.

Charles Church have sensitively restored the B Listed building to ensure original features such as the external crests, carved intricately into sandstone, and ornate downpipe goblets are preserved. Internally, existing archways are being incorporated within the hallway. Rarely are such proportions and magnificence captured in restoration at this level, and the ceiling heights provide an air of spaciousness from bygone days. Replacement sash and case windows are vast and encourage light to dance throughout the apartments, casting shadows and creating interest.

The property is close to local amenities in Lenzie including, shops, schooling and transport links. Lenzie train station is within walking distance. Kirkintilloch town centre is only a short distance away and provides a wider range of facilities including supermarkets, high street shops, library and a range of bars and restaurants. In addition to this, there are excellent road links close by giving easy access to Glasgow City Centre and the Central Belt motorway network.
