5 Golf Road, Burnside, Glasgow, G73 4JW

Details Set within one of Burnside’s most prestigious and enduringly sought-after residential addresses, 5 Golf Road is a handsome double-fronted detached bungalow dating from the mid-1930s.

Occupying a generous plot on the preferred side of the street, its broad frontage, traditional proportions and substantial gardens give the property an immediate presence, while a series of well-considered extensions has significantly enhanced the original layout.

The south-facing rear garden is a particular highlight, enjoying excellent privacy and providing a beautiful backdrop to the rear of the house.

For twenty-four years, the property has been lovingly maintained and sympathetically improved, with the result being a home that retains the character of its era while having evolved considerably to meet the demands of modern living.

The accommodation unfolds across two levels, offering six principal apartments, a heated conservatory and an exceptionally flexible layout, with the majority of the accommodation conveniently arranged on the ground floor.

This makes the property particularly well suited to families while also offering excellent flexibility for those seeking the convenience of predominantly all-on-the-level living.

A welcoming entrance vestibule opens into a broad reception hallway, from which the principal ground-floor apartments are accessed, together with the staircase to the upper level.

The front-facing lounge is an elegant reception room, centred around a handsome marble fireplace and featuring a broad bay window that fills the room with natural light.

The principal bedroom is similarly impressive in scale, with its own broad bay window and a beautifully appointed en-suite wet room, refitted earlier this year.

To the rear, a generous dining room provides an adaptable additional reception space or bedroom, enjoying a broad bay window overlooking the garden and a charming fireplace that adds a further touch of character.

A further single bedroom, equally suited to use as a home office or study, overlooks the rear.

The kitchen has been smartly refitted with a comprehensive range of contemporary units and integrated appliances, including a dishwasher, microwave, fridge freezer and induction range cooker.

An open archway leads naturally into the heated conservatory, creating a particularly pleasant everyday living space with direct views across the rear garden.

A useful adjacent utility room adds further practicality, while a well-appointed main bathroom completes the ground-floor accommodation.

Upstairs, there are two generous double bedrooms, both benefiting from fitted wardrobes and excellent eaves storage. A separate shower room completes the upper level.

Outside, the gardens are equally impressive.

The front garden has been designed for ease of maintenance, with stone-chip landscaping enclosed by attractive low-level walling and wrought-iron fencing, while a substantial driveway extends to the side and rear, providing parking for multiple vehicles.

The driveway is secured by powered gates and leads to a single garage with power and a remote-controlled up-and-over door.

To the rear, the south-facing garden is fully enclosed and beautifully landscaped, with two areas of lawn and an expansive sandstone patio creating an attractive setting for outdoor dining, entertaining or simply enjoying the garden throughout the day.

The property sits within walking distance of shops and amenities on Stonelaw Road.

There are more extensive facilities located nearby on Rutherglen Main Street and further afield at Kings Gate Retail Park which is only a short drive to the southeast.

Recreational pursuits within the general area include well maintained parks, golf courses, gyms and excellent schooling at primary and secondary levels.

There is excellent bus links to the City Centre and Burnside railway station is only a short distance from the property.

There are also excellent road links close by including the M74 link allowing swift access to the surrounding areas and the Central belt motorway network system.
