About
Set on a desirable corner plot in a quiet street in Milton of Campsie, this extended three bedroom detached home has clearly been loved for many years, and it's easy to see why.
While it would benefit from a little internal modernisation, it offers a rare chance for a family to shape a home around the way they actually live.
Coming in from the monoblock driveway, there's a real sense of everyday practicality from the start.
The panoramic porch is the kind of space you'll actually use, somewhere to sit and pull off muddy boots after a walk, while a handy shower room and generous storage just off the hallway keep daily life running smoothly without the clutter.
Family life really comes into its own as you move through the heart of the house.
The lounge feels both spacious and full of character, with floor to ceiling windows and a warm wood panelled feature wall that gives the room a real sense of identity.
From here, the space keeps unfolding rather than stopping, with sliding glass doors opening onto a second reception room that's currently a relaxed mix of seating and workspace, easily adaptable to whatever a new family needs it to be.
Follow the flow through an open arch and you reach an extended family area that you will probably spend the majority of your time in, with floor to ceiling glazing framing lovely views over the garden and French doors opening onto a private decked area, a spot that's begging for morning coffee in the sunshine.
The layout wraps naturally into a kitchen that's all about function over fuss, with back door access straight into the garden for those in-and-out summer days, and a dining area that's cosy enough for family meals yet roomy enough for a proper family table.
A separate utility space and internal garage access add the kind of everyday practicality that busy family life relies on.
Upstairs offers a quieter rhythm, with three generously sized bedrooms, a tiled bathroom fitted with a three piece white suite, and a handy linen cupboard tucked at the top of the stairs.
And then there's the garden, saved for last because it truly deserves its own moment.
It feels like stepping into a secret world, with apple and pear trees, a quaint summer house at the end of a winding path, and mature shrubs shielding a greenhouse tucked quietly out of sight.
To the side of the house, a hidden decked area offers a peaceful, calming spot away from it all, the kind of place you'll find yourself drawn to again and again.
Power is also connected to the summerhouse and two sheds, one of which has been set up as a workshop, complete with heating and lighting — perfect for hobbies, projects, or simply a space of your own.
