The Gartconnell district, situated just to the north of Bearsden Cross, remains one of the area’s most sought after. Built, predominately post-war, by John Russell Builders, it is home to a wonderful array of very appealingly designed family homes. North Grange Road is at its northerly fringe and is a cul-de-sac, at the end of which is direct access to the delightful Kilmardinny Loch and its surrounding woodland walks and Gruffalo trail.
55 North Grange Road is one of the largest models that Russell built, circa 1960, and is a full six apartment Detached House of fine proportions, as our accompanying floor plan will confirm. Its configuration allows for use as a three- or four-bedroom home as family needs require, the fourth bedroom, on the ground floor, used by our clients as the increasingly required Home Office. In addition to this the Work/Storeroom off the Utility Room could well be used as a handy Home Study.
The house benefits from an elevated setting that provides a dramatic view southward, not only over Bearsden but Glasgow City. The garden rises from front to rear, where the property’s garage is located, accessed via a private service lane for the residents of No’s 39 to 61.
The house features UPVC double glazed windows, and external doors, of mixed age with the roof line soffits replaced in low maintenance white UPVC in 2021. Central heating is mains gas with a Scottish Gas 330 system boiler, the lounge having the warmth and luxury of a wood burning stove. Sanitaryware is white, the Shower Room renewed and re-tiled only in 2019. The Kitchen has the Shaker style wood units painted in a modern dark grey tone. There is a security alarm system by Ring installed.
The accommodation comprises:
Ground floor
Hall – This is a great sized reception area. The staircase, retaining the original timber panelled balustrade, has a hall cupboard below.
Lounge – A generously proportioned room with space, as featured, for a dining table and chairs. It has a broad two frame window to the rear and has the woodburning stove at the focal point.
Family Room (Dining Room) – In the original design of the house this would have been the dining room, having a serving hatch to the kitchen. For our clients it is used as a cosy family TV Room.
Home Office/Bedroom 4 – With window to the front this can either be a third public room or a fourth bedroom as required.
Kitchen – Ample kitchen units at counter height and at eye level with worktops in a grey granite style. Appliances include cooker, dishwasher and fridge.
Utility Room – Part of the side extension this has a double-glazed door and window to the front. Quarry tiled floor. Laundry pulley. Plumbing here for washing machine. Boiler located in this room.

Bathroom – Off the three-quarter landing. Three-piece white suite. Above the bath is a Mira Sport Max electric shower.
Bedroom 1 – A large main room with a broad dormer window to the front providing the best view from the house. There are two deep fitted double width wardrobes.
Bedroom 2 – Another double with again a dormer window to the front providing that excellent view. Deep single wardrobe.
Bedroom 3 – Double room. Gable window to the easterly side of the house. Linen cupboard.
Gardens
The garden falls on a gradient from front to rear. The front features well planted beds through which a winding path leads up to the front of the house, a sun terrace, and the front door. A wooden picket fence, and matching gate, protects the front garden from the pavement. A pathway leads down the west side of the house, with gate, to the rear garden. Here there is a slabbed patio across the back of the house from which stone steps and a winding monobloc path leads through a private terraced garden where there are initially two sections of grass and chunky stone retaining walls with planted beds above. To the top of the garden there is a level area of grass for children to play upon. Here you will find a glazed potting shed and the property’s single Garage which has power and light installed.
Situation
The Gartconnell district of Bearsden is the area immediately to the north of Bearsden Cross and therefore is within easy reach of the superb facilities, Shops, Cafes, and Restaurants to be found there. This includes a Bank of Scotland, a well-stocked Post Office and a Marks and Spencer Foodhall. At The Cross there are Churches of various denominations, ‘the Community Hub, ’ which includes the town’s Library, gp and Dental Practices and The Bearsden Early Years Learning Centre. Just south of The Cross is Bearsden Railway Station which provides regular links into Glasgow’s West End and City Centre including a service to Edinburgh Waverley. Bearsden Primary is at The Cross with Bearsden Academy nearer still at Courthill, recently ranked No. 2 State Secondary in Scotland.
