We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
• Detached five bedroomed villa on attractive ‘double feu’ plot • A special home that has been significantly developed over the years • Located in one of Bearsden’s most desired residential pockets • Augmented via addition of self-contained apartment/annexe to lower ground floor • Nicely presented across accommodation • Fabulous, beautifully arranged garden space • Plenty off street parking, detached garage and car port • PVC double glazing and gas central heating Occupying a prime position in one of Bearsden’s most sought-after addresses, this substantial and impressive detached home offers the perfect living solution for growing and evolving families looking to make a long-term acquisition.
Originally constructed in the mid 1960’s, the property is set upon an atypically large, tree-lined ‘double feu’ site which affords plenty of outdoor space and privacy.
Having previously been extended prior to our clients acquisition at the turn of the Millenium, our clients have further added to the property via the creation of a self-contained annexe to the lower ground floor level – a space that could equally well augment the accommodation of the principal house, be let out or act as a ‘granny’ annexe.
The accommodation within the original house is plenty roomy, with eight principal apartments (four bedrooms, four public rooms, two bathrooms) offering a spacious and adaptable layout that would suit any family.
Summary of Accommodation - Reception hallway with staircase to first floor - Cloakroom w.c - Stunning lounge with off-set bay window, French doors out to front garden space - Spacious dining kitchen – range of contemporary units and appliances, breakfast bar area, French doors out to raised deck - Formal dining room - Sitting room - Four double bedrooms (spacious principal suite with ensuite shower room and dressing area) - Three-piece family bathroom - Spacious upper landing – cupboard with fixed ladder access to floored and lined attic room - Self contained annexe with lounge/dining/kitchen area, double bedroom, luxury tiled shower room Externally, the property features a variety of fantastic spaces, with expanses of lawn, stone paviours and a raised deck (with covered gazebo for hot tub and outdoor shower) providing great options for child’s play, keen gardeners, and outdoor entertaining in equal measure.
Plenty off street parking via a monobloc drive and detached garage.
