Truly one of the best traditional homes in Bearsden, this late Victorian stone villa has a prime location in the conservation district of Old Bearsden.   Set on a lovely corner garden with Thorn Road and Whitehill Road, it is a substantial home of nearly 4,000 sq. ft., with a fantastic original billiards room with vaulted ceiling.   With a number of fine features, both period and modern as well as many quality fixtures / fitments, this is a grand family home in excellent decorative order.

Its accommodation comprises entrance vestibule leading through a glass panelled door to a wonderful reception hall with original staircase and an oak herringbone floor.   There is a bay windowed lounge with oak floor and fireplace, dining room with fireplace and a family room with fireplace and French doors into a custom designed Cairns conservatory.   The billiards room has a full 17’ high vaulted ceiling and is a fantastic space, utilised as a family games room with mezzanine crash pad or library, an en-suite shower room and separate toilet compartment.   The kitchen is modern in design and a great space with central island, granite worktops and a range of appliances including a blue Aga.   The ground floor accommodation continues with a utility/laundry, study, gym with sauna and shower enclosure, and, off the reception hall, a guest toilet with two piece contemporary suite.   Upstairs there are five bedrooms, including a large master bedroom with custom fitted wardrobes and a fabulous en-suite bathroom with Travertine floor and wall tiles, and a four piece family bathroom.   The property’s attic has been floored and lined and provides a very useful ancillary space.   Outside, the gardens are mature and very nicely stocked and offer a high degree of privacy at the rear.   There is a mono-block drive and parking area at the front of the property winding around the westerly side of the house to a large carport and a very large 27’ x 17’ garage.   The house has gas central heating.  

A large and hugely impressive period family home.
