The rear garden has been designed for ease of maintenance, featuring an expansive paved terrace that is perfectly positioned to enjoy the property's elevated outlook across Bearsden.
Mature borders and an established apple tree add colour and interest throughout the seasons, creating a peaceful and private outdoor environment.
