5 Rubislaw Drive, Bearsden, G61 1PR

Property Description
Occupying a highly desirable position within one of Bearsden's most sought-after residential pockets, this beautifully extended, double-fronted, red sandstone bungalow dates from the 1930s and offers exceptionally flexible family accommodation extending across three levels. Thoughtfully developed, the property combines traditional character with generous, modern living space, all set within immaculately maintained private gardens to the front and rear.

The accommodation is entered via an entrance porch, leading to a broad reception hallway, from which the principal apartments are accessed. To the front, a substantial bay-windowed principal bedroom, traditionally the lounge, enjoys excellent proportions and an Ingleneuk style fireplace, whilst a second double bedroom sits opposite, again, benefiting from generous floor space and an attractive outlook. A third bedroom is positioned to the side of the property and would equally lend itself to use as a nursery, study or home office.

To the rear of the ground floor, the house opens into a magnificent open-plan dining kitchen, undoubtedly the heart of the home. Extending over thirty feet in length, this impressive space offers ample room for cooking, dining and everyday family living, with an extensive range of storage, excellent natural light and views over the rear gardens. Adjacent lies a formal dining room, providing a wonderful setting for entertaining and family gatherings. A well-appointed family bathroom completes the ground floor accommodation.

A staircase rises from the central hallway to the upper level, where a particularly impressive bedroom suite occupies the entire floor. This bright and spacious room enjoys excellent proportions, fitted wardrobe storage and is served by its own shower room, creating an ideal principal suite or private guest accommodation.

The lower garden level further enhances the versatility of the home and provides a substantial additional living area. A large family lounge spans almost the full width of the property and offers an outstanding secondary reception space, ideal for relaxation, entertaining or teenage family members seeking their own area. A generous sitting room sits adjacent and could be utilised as a further family room, games room or home cinema. There is also a sizeable double bedroom on this level, together with a shower room, utility room, extensive storage areas and further flexible basement accommodation that could be adapted to suit a variety of requirements.

Externally, the gardens are a particular feature of the property. The rear garden has been beautifully landscaped and is predominantly laid to lawn, complemented by a large decked terrace, raised planting beds and mature shrubs and trees which provide excellent privacy and year-round colour. To the front, the gardens are equally well maintained, whilst a private driveway provides convenient off-street parking.

The specification includes gas central heating and double glazing throughout.

Properties of this scale and flexibility are rarely available within such a sought-after Bearsden location. Offering a superb balance of traditional character, adaptable family accommodation and beautifully tended gardens, this is a highly appealing home that will suit a wide range of buyers.
