Ilay Court was built by Ambion Homes and is a small courtyard style development of only 22 properties, discreetly tucked away off Ilay Road beside the, some, 80 acres expanse of Dawsholm Park with its woodland walks, and cycle paths, that to the east borders The River Kelvin.
No. 12 is an End Terrace Villa that was designed originally as a three bedroomed house – two doubles and a third, small, single bedroom. Our client, who has owned the house for some 30 years, integrated Bedroom 1 and Bedroom 3 into a larger main bedroom with the removal of the partition party wall. This makes for a far more impressive principal bedroom but for those requiring three bedrooms again it could be reverted to the original configuration. A previous owner extended the house to the rear to add another public room (used as a Dining Room). This is a good addition and is a room with windows on three sides including the main rear facing window (south) that overlooks the Meadow of Dawsholm Park. It also features a ‘back door’ as one can see from the floor plans to the side of the house.
The property is double glazed (mostly from 2007), the exception being the front and back doors and the hall windows, from 2004. Central heating is mains gas and here a Worcester Greenstar 28 Junior Combi MkIV Boiler was installed in August 2012. The property has its own single garage, located in the central garage courtyard – it is the first garage on the right as you enter.
Decoratively, it is fair to accept that the subjects are dated, but they are well kept. Any buyer would, most likely, stamp their own mark upon the house which is typical of most purchases in any event.
Ilay Court is on the southernmost edge of Bearsden but actually falls within Glasgow City to whom Council Tax is payable. It is hidden away on a leafy corner yet is brilliantly handy, via the A879 Bearsden/Switchback Road, for accessing the centres of Bearsden and nearby Anniesland and the really excellent amenities to be found there.
It is a lovely spot and the southerly aspect this house has to the Park is a real plus point. The garden is very compact, and this could well suit many of those to whom this size of property might appeal.
Ground floor
• Hall – With UPVC double glazed front door and two full height window screens, one of which features an attractive stained leaded panel design.
• Lounge/Dining Room – Before the house was extended this was the lounge with open plan dining room.
• Dining Room – The extension. Used as a formal dining room but could make a cosy living room, set on an open plan basis to the adjacent lounge/dining room. There are windows on three sides plus a UPVC double glazed ‘back door’ to the side of the house.
• Kitchen – Galley style and compact. Maple style kitchen units with a marble effect worksurfaces into which is set a composite sink. Appliances include four burner gas hob, filter cooker hood, double oven, slimline fridge (old) and washing machine.
First floor
• Hallway – With cupboard. Hatch with loft ladder to a deep insulated attic that is centrally floored. The boiler is located in the attic. Light installed.
• Bedroom 1 – Due to the integration of what had been Bedroom 1 and Bedroom 3 originally, this is now a particularly good sized room. Two windows to the front provide plenty of light.
• Bedroom 2 – A smaller double room with window to the rear with the best view over the Park.
• Shower Room – Refitted from what was previously a bathroom, it is fully tiled and modern with white suite. The corner shower enclosure features a thermostatic shower. White coloured towel radiator.
Garden
The garden has a small front garden with two areas of grass divided by a slabbed path. There is a shrub bed with holly tree. A steppingstone and gravel path, via a gate, leads around the side of the property to the rear garden. This is compact but does offer space in which to sit. It is enclosed by fencing and lies to gravel and has some shrubs planted. It backs on to the Park and the hedge beyond the rear fence is the responsibility of the owner to cut. The rear garden is south facing.
The Ilay Court development is factored by Hacking & Paterson of Glasgow who look after the maintenance of the communal garden grounds.
