Freehold

Description

A rare and genuinely exclusive opportunity to acquire a spectacular penthouse apartment, which spans circa 2400 square feet and occupies the entire top floor of this modern building within the prestigious Thorn Heights development by Lorimer Homes. Enjoying private lift access via a private code for the lift directly to its own lobby, the home is set in a superb location, just over half a mile from Bearsden Cross, surrounded by mature, beautifully landscaped residents' gardens. A full wraparound balcony, which can be accessed from all rooms, provides wonderful outdoor space and delivers delightful outlooks from every principal room. The property further benefits from two private parking spaces and generous visitor parking.

Constructed circa 2005/2006, within the leafy former grounds of Scotus College, Thorn Heights exemplifies Lorimer Homes' renowned quality of design and high specification. The two principal blocks, finished in reconstituted stone, sit peacefully off Chesters Road, within the highly regarded Thorn district.

One of only two penthouses within the development, this particular apartment is an outstanding example, having been meticulously maintained over the years. The result is an immaculately presented home, ideally suited to professionals or those downsizing from larger family houses in search of secure, refined and low-maintenance living.

The accommodation is exceptionally generous and beautifully balanced. From secure entry at ground level, a private lift access leads to the top-floor lobby, exclusive to this apartment. From the lobby, there is direct access to the roof terrace and two separate entrances into the apartment itself. Internally, the layout comprises an extremely bright and expansive lounge, with formal dining area, a substantial second family room or sitting room, and a well-equipped contemporary dining kitchen, fitted with quality cabinetry and a full complement of integrated appliances, with a separate utility room positioned off. There are three impressive double bedrooms, each benefitting from fitted storage and en-suite shower rooms. The principal bedroom is of extremely generous proportion and boasts a large and well-appointed four-piece ensuite.

The specification includes gas central heating, underfloor heating, double glazing, secure entry, lift access, two allocated parking spaces and ample visitor parking. The communal areas and grounds are professionally maintained by Redpath Bruce, in conjunction with the residents, ensuring the development remains impeccably presented throughout the year.

Thorn Heights enjoys an established and peaceful setting, close to Thorn Park, Thorn Tennis Club and Bearsden Golf Course. Bearsden Cross, the vibrant heart of the town, lies approximately half a mile to the east and offers an excellent selection of independent retailers, cafés, restaurants and a Marks & Spencer Food Hall. Bearsden railway station provides regular services to Glasgow's West End and City Centre.

Altogether, this is a truly exceptional luxury penthouse, within one of Bearsden's most admired modern developments.
