Nestled in the midst of a particularly quiet address in Bearsden’s Switchback district, this superb, detached property was constructed by the renowned building co. John Lawrence in the 1950’s and has been significantly augmented with the addition a full-width dormer to the rear of the first floor. This has, in effect, created a hugely adaptable family home of seven principal apartments (four full double bedrooms and three large public rooms) – a great property that can meet with the evolving needs of large/growing families.
The property has been very well maintained by the owner and there is plenty of room for the successful bidding party to implement their own themes and ideas. This is a rare opportunity to purchase a property with original features such as cast iron radiators and a beautiful fireplace, appealing to a discerning buyer.
The overall property perimeter is approximately 86m, area 405m2, with the south facing rear garden area of approximately 180m2 and the front garden area approximately 108m2. At the side of the property there is potential to install a garden shed or an extension, subject to necessary planning permission if applicable. The gardens are private and mature, containing a beautiful selection of tress, plants and flowers, together with two healthy lawns with all well maintained.

Situation
The house is within the Switchback district of Bearsden - highly desirable with school catchment at Westerton Primary and the new premises of Boclair Academy. At Westerton is a railway station with regular services into Glasgow's West End and to the City Centre. Switchback is to the south westerly fringe of Bearsden and therefore provides ready and easy road connections through Anniesland to the West End and city. Beyond the houses opposite is the protected woodland corridor of the Cairnhill Woods.
Bearsden Cross, the heart of the town, is a little over one mile to the north and here you will find an excellent selection of quality independent retailers along with the Marks and Spencers food hall, restaurants, and cafes. There are several GP and Dental surgeries. On Milngavie Road is a large Asda and a little further north at Milngavie a Waitrose and an Aldi. Recently opened is the superb new facilities of Bearsden's Allander Sport Centre.
