16 Hillside Road, Cardross, G82 5LX

Located in one of the village’s most sought after addresses, this spacious and well laid out detached villa enjoys fantastic mature gardens and stunning views south across the River Clyde.

The house would be a perfect family home laid out over one-and-a-half floors and extending to almost 1500 square feet in total. It provides a versatile layout, with spacious rooms, some of which enjoy fantastic views over the gardens at the rear. On entering the grounds, a monoblock paved driveway provides parking down the side of the house and to the front and can accommodate numerous cars. It leads to a sizeable single car garage at the rear (electrically operated door). The front garden features a central lawn with bedded borders and with hedging and retaining walls on either side. To the rear, the gardens are a beautiful feature of the property and have a large central lawn, beautifully planted, colourful bedded areas all around and with hedging providing privacy and screening on either side. The gardens enjoy all day long sunshine and also include a raised decked terrace/sitting area taking in the views, along with a further sheltered patio behind the garage and with a small ramp leading down to a contemporary and futuristic garden pod. There is also a timber potting shed in the garden.

On entering the house from the front, twin outer storm doors lead into an entrance vestibule which in turn opens through in to the reception hall that gives access to each of the main rooms downstairs. The hall features a solid wood floor and there is a staircase at the far end ascending to the upper floor accommodation. To the front of the house is a comfortable, well proportioned lounge and also on the ground floor to the front is a good sized double bedroom. There is a spacious modern and well fitted family bathroom with separate shower and bath, along with a bright and spacious open plan breakfasting kitchen that comes with wall mounted and counter level units and a range of appliances. Adjacent to the kitchen is a comfortable family room/dining room that has modern sliding patio doors opening out to the decked terrace.

Moving on to the upstairs accommodation, there is a large master bedroom on this floor with a run of wardrobes along the length of one wall and it enjoys its own ensuite shower room which again is modern and fitted with a shower enclosure, wc and wash hand basin. Also on this floor is a further double bedroom (built-in wardrobes). The house is warmed by a system of gas fired central heating and is fully double glazed throughout.
