***Closing Date Wed 7th Oct 12pm*** Are you looking for a rarely available detached bungalow with four bedrooms, two public rooms and fantastic potential on one of the most desirable streets in Newton Mearns?
Then this could be the perfect one for you.
Coming to the market for the first time in over 85 years, this substantial detached bungalow on Windsor Avenue represents an increasingly rare opportunity to acquire a traditional home within one of Newton Mearns’ most established and sought-after residential addresses.
Offering a fantastic amount of potential at an attractive asking price, the property now requires internal modernisation but provides an excellent foundation for its next owners to create an outstanding family home to their own taste and specification.
Importantly, considerable investment has already been made externally, with the property having been recently re-roofed and externally painted.
The generous plot, flexible existing accommodation and substantial proportions also offer exciting scope to further develop, reconfigure or extend the property, subject of course to obtaining any necessary planning permissions and consents.
Windsor Avenue is particularly well positioned within Newton Mearns, providing convenient access to the area's excellent selection of local amenities, shops and leisure facilities.
The Broom Shops and The Avenue Shopping Centre are both within easy reach, while excellent road links provide convenient access towards Glasgow and throughout the surrounding area.
Families are particularly well catered for, with Newton Mearns renowned for its excellent schooling, including highly regarded primary and secondary options such as Mearns Castle High School and St Ninian's High School.
The welcoming entrance hallway immediately demonstrates the generous proportions of the home and provides access to the principal ground-floor accommodation.
There are two particularly impressive public rooms positioned towards the front of the property.
The spacious living room enjoys an attractive bay window which floods the room with natural light, while the separate sitting room provides another excellent reception space and offers tremendous flexibility for family living.
The kitchen is positioned towards the rear of the home and offers a generous footprint with a range of fitted units, worktop space and room for casual dining. A door provides direct access outside.
Two well-proportioned bedrooms are located on the main level, allowing the property to offer particularly versatile accommodation for families, downsizers or those requiring bedrooms and living accommodation on the same floor.
Completing the main level is the shower room, fitted with a three-piece suite including a large shower enclosure.
Stairs from the hallway lead to the upper level, where a further generous double bedroom is complemented by an additional room offering flexibility as a fourth bedroom, home office, dressing room or potential additional accommodation.
The upper level, together with the property's overall footprint, highlights the exciting possibilities available to a purchaser looking to maximise the accommodation and create a substantial long-term family home.
Externally, the property occupies a well-sized and mature plot, with established gardens providing a wonderful sense of privacy and seclusion.
The front garden is screened by mature hedging, while a lengthy private driveway extends along the side of the house towards the detached garage, providing excellent off-street parking.
To the rear, the secluded garden is predominantly laid to lawn and surrounded by mature trees, shrubs and established planting, creating a particularly private outdoor space with excellent potential for landscaping.
Rarely does a home with this combination of location, plot size, flexible accommodation and future potential become available in the area.
With the major external improvements of a recently renewed roof and exterior painting already completed, this is a superb opportunity for a purchaser to focus on transforming the interior and creating an exceptional home in one of Newton Mearns’ most desirable residential settings.
Early viewing is strongly recommended to fully appreciate the proportions, position and outstanding potential on offer.
