17 Jedburgh Avenue, Rutherglen, Glasgow, G73

A handsome blonde sandstone villa, occupying a generous garden plot in a sought-after and well-established pocket of Rutherglen. Significantly improved in 2021, the property benefits from a refitted kitchen, utility room, downstairs shower room and main bathroom, together with a Baxi boiler installed during the same programme of works. Arranged over two levels, the house combines attractive period proportions with a notably well-updated specification and excellent outdoor space.

The entrance vestibule opens into a substantial reception hall, with a staircase rising to the upper floor and access to the principal ground floor apartments. The lounge is a standout room, centred around a feature fireplace with multi-fuel burning stove and complemented by decorative ceiling cornicing, a central rose and a substantial south-facing bay window overlooking the front garden. Original timber flooring completes a room that has both presence and warmth.

An open archway connects the lounge with the impressive dining kitchen, creating an excellent arrangement for both everyday family life and entertaining. Extensively refitted, the kitchen features a generous selection of base and wall-mounted units, a central breakfasting island and integrated appliances including fridge freezer, microwave, electric oven and gas hob. A deep walk-in store cupboard provides excellent additional storage, while a door leads directly into the rear garden.

The former kitchen has been thoughtfully converted into a highly practical utility room, with space for both washing machine and tumble dryers, additional storage and a further door to the garden. A separate downstairs shower room adds further convenience and complements the main bathroom at first-floor level.

A half landing leads to the contemporary three-piece bathroom, which also incorporates a wet-room style shower area. The upper landing provides access to three spacious double bedrooms. The principal bedroom is particularly attractive, with period fireplace detail forming an attractive focal point, while the remaining bedrooms provide ample space for family, guests or home working. A hatch with pull-down ladder accesses the valuable attic space.

The gardens add considerably to the appeal. The front garden is landscaped for ease of maintenance, while the fully enclosed rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn and incorporates a broad Indian sandstone patio, additional seating area and garden shed at he far end.

The property is ideally placed for access to the wide range of shops, cafés and everyday amenities available on Stonelaw Road and Rutherglen Main Street, with Kingsgate Retail Park also within easy reach. The surrounding area offers an excellent choice of recreational facilities, including golf courses, tennis and bowling clubs, gyms and the extensive outdoor space of Cathkin Braes Country Park. Regular bus services provide convenient links to Glasgow City Centre, while both Rutherglen and Burnside railway stations are within walking distance. Excellent road connections are also close at hand, providing straightforward access to neighbouring districts and the wider Central Belt motorway network.
