• Edwardian stone built semi-detached house

• Within Conservation Area of Old Bearsden
• Beautifully retained period detail
• Expertly landscaped south facing garden
• Four bedrooms, three public rooms, kitchen, two bathrooms

Forming part of Old Bearsden’s prestigious Conservation District, this particularly handsome stone semi-villa is set upon a mature garden plot and features a superb south facing garden to the rear. A fabulous traditional home with a position of high convenience in the midst of a premier Bearsden address.

The property offers immediate aesthetic allure with its bay windowed frontage and charming features such as the mock Tudor cladding formed around the dormer window to first floor. Internally, great care has been afforded in retaining the beautiful period detailing that these homes are coveted for, with the layout out of seven principal apartments providing particularly well-balanced accommodation over the two principal levels. The property has been well cared for over the years (as evidenced in the surveyors’ home report) and is very much ‘ready to go’ for the incoming purchaser. Of course, the successful bidding party would have fantastic scope to implement their own themes and ideas over time.

A very exciting opportunity, with early first-hand inspection encouraged.

Outside

As mentioned, the property sits on fantastic plot that is notable for its generous size and south garden space to the rear. Indeed, the successful bidding party would have ample opportunity to extend/develop the property whilst being left with still very generous garden space (subject to necessary warrants/permissions for the local authority). The rear garden has been professionally landscaped and enjoys various points of interest with its selection of mature trees, shrubs, bushes and perennial specimens. The orientation of the property allows for sun across the course of the day, with sections of hard landscaping providing areas for outdoor seating/entertaining. Ample off-street parking via driveway and detached garage.

Situation

The traditional period homes in this area tend to come to market once in a generation and as such, this is an opportunity for the purchaser to acquire one of these constantly sought-after traditional homes, and part of the fabric of the town’s historical past. The town really grew with the arrival of the railway in the 1860s, but its history goes back more than two millennia to Roman times with one of its two British frontier walls, the Antonine Wall (55 BC), running through it (the remains of a bathhouse evident, and a World Heritage Site, off Roman Road).

The house is essentially at the heart of The Cross, just a few hundred metres from the shops (including the Marks & Spencer’s Food Hall), cafés, and restaurants. State schooling is Bearsden Primary (at The Cross) and Bearsden Academy (at Courthill), beside which is St Nicholas’ Primary. The High School of Glasgow Junior School is on Ledcameroch Road, its secondary just south of Bearsden at Anniesland. As well as regular bus services, Bearsden railway station provides four trains per hour (peak time) to the West End and city centre and two trains at off-peak times.
