Benefiting from the extremely convenient location of Kessington this pretty Detached House has four principal apartments and can be a two or three-bedroom layout as required. A quality home it was built, pre-war, by the highly admired Southern Building Co and is brick built, finished in painted render, set beneath a Rosemary tiled pitched roof.
Whilst modernised it retains some lovely features including plasterwork, picture rails, fireplaces, doors, handsome staircase. A sizeable conservatory extension, off the kitchen, makes a significant contribution to the accommodation and is a very usable room having a radiator (for autumn and winter months) and a lined roof to provide all year use. The kitchen has Shaker units in an oak finish complemented by chunky solid oak work surfaces, with Belfast sink. The bathroom was refitted with an extremely smart luxury shower room that includes a large “wet zone” shower enclosure with floor drain and a powerful thermostatic shower with both deluge and hand shower heads. All windows, bar the original leaded window in the hall cloaks cupboard, are double glazed with three of the rooms featuring traditionally styled sash and case units. The central heating is mains gas with a Worcester Greenstar 25 Si compact condensing combination boiler. The house is alarmed.

Entry to the property is to the side of the house via an entrance vestibule, with storm doors, to an attractive reception hall with under stairs cloaks cupboard and a lovely staircase. The lounge is a fine sized room with bay window, with window seat, to the west and at the focal point an original fireplace with modern marble inlay and hearth and a living flame coal effect gas fire. The second public room, also with bay window (east), is used as a living room but could readily be bedroom three if preferred. Another original fireplace with modern marble inlay and hearth, again with a living flame gas fire. Retained shelved alcove with cabinet.
The kitchen comes with four burner gas hob, oven, filter cooker hood, built-in fridge, freezer, dishwasher, and with a concealed washing machine. The conservatory with its lined roof makes it more akin to a garden room. Glazed on three sides it also has a door to the garden. Bedroom 1 is on the ground floor and across the hall from it is the high-quality shower room.

Upstairs is accessed by a handsome original staircase which, at a ¾ landing, has a four-frame window to throw lots of light to the stairwell and upper landing. On the first floor is bedroom 2, a large room with three-frame dormer to the west and retaining an original (painted) cast iron fireplace. Pine floorboards add a nice touch. Off this room, via a low door, is a rather handy box room with storage - has Velux window, coombe ceilings. Makes for a good dressing room, office, or simply for storage.

Outside, the houses is on a corner plot, lying mainly to grass with the rear garden enclosed by fencing, and gates, to make safe for children and pets. Here there are three patios to enjoy the sun at different times of the day. The detached single garage is timber built and has a wide block-paved driveway for a car.

The house is so very handily placed for the shops at Kensington and is only some ½ mile to Hillfoot railway station. Bearsden cross is about one mile away.

A lovely home.
