Freehold

Description

Occupying a substantial and beautifully established south-facing plot, within one of Bearsden's most popular residential areas, this particularly handsome detached bungalow offers generous and versatile accommodation, excellent outside space and an abundance of useful ancillary storage. Carefully maintained over the years, the house sits comfortably within extensive, mature garden grounds, with an attractive front garden, broad areas of established planting and a monoblock driveway providing excellent off-street parking. To the rear, the large south-facing garden is exceptionally private and enjoys a substantial level patio, extensive lawn and mature borders, providing an excellent space for outdoor dining, entertaining and family use.

The accommodation begins with an entrance vestibule leading into a generous reception hallway, where useful storage is provided. The principal lounge is a particularly attractive room, featuring a large bay window overlooking the front garden and a focal-point fireplace, with living-flame gas fire inset.

The front-facing principal bedroom is another generously proportioned room and benefits from excellent fitted storage, together with a four-piece en-suite bathroom, incorporating a separate shower enclosure and bath, with over bath shower. To the rear, the dining room provides a lovely additional reception space and, given its size and position, could readily be utilised as a further bedroom, if required.

There is a further bedroom on the ground floor, which is a smaller double, and a well-appointed family shower room. The fitted kitchen is positioned to the rear of the property and provides a good range of wall and base-mounted units, with a door leading through to a rear porch and directly onto the garden.

A staircase leads to the upper floor, where there are two further well-proportioned double bedrooms. Both rooms benefit from useful eaves storage, providing excellent additional space that is particularly valuable within a home of this type and adds considerably to the property's overall versatility.

One of the less immediately obvious attractions of the property is the substantial sub-floor space. There are two large cellar/storage rooms beneath the house, providing an exceptional amount of additional storage and practical space. One of these areas incorporates an up-and-over garage door, providing particularly useful access for larger items, equipment or hobby use.

The property further benefits from gas central heating and double glazing, while externally there is a detached garage, with remote-controlled door and power and lighting. Combined with the substantial monoblock driveway, the property offers excellent provision for both everyday family parking and additional vehicle or storage requirements.

The property is particularly well placed for families, falling within the catchment for the highly regarded Killermont Primary School and Boclair Academy. Bearsden itself remains one of Glasgow's most sought-after suburbs, renowned for its excellent schooling, extensive leisure facilities and strong sense of community. Bearsden Cross provides a wide variety of shops, cafés, restaurants and everyday services, while nearby Hillfoot, Westerton and Bearsden railway stations offer regular services into Glasgow's West End and City Centre, together with connections to Edinburgh.

The surrounding area also offers an excellent choice of recreational opportunities, with numerous parks, golf courses, sports clubs and walking routes close at hand. Glasgow Airport is readily accessible, while the spectacular scenery of Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park lies within easy reach to the north.

A substantial and particularly attractive detached bungalow, combining generous and flexible accommodation with exceptional gardens, excellent parking, a detached garage and unusually extensive ancillary storage. This is a home with genuine versatility and considerable appeal.
