House For Sale £380,000
Enjoying one of the finest positions on the flat section of Buchanan Drive overlooking the lawns of Cambuslang Tennis Club, a spectacular six apartment Victorian stone-built villa set within established gardens in one of the most sought-after pockets of Cambuslang.
In excellent order, the house has been proudly owned by our clients for many years and in that period, it has been lovingly maintained and enhanced to a high standard throughout. The house is brimming with original character and charm, and benefits from many notable features such as quality floor coverings and tasteful décor throughout (all fabrics and wall coverings are by Laura Ashley). There is a well-equipped kitchen featuring a range of appliances, a smarty re-fitted, traditional styled bathroom with rolltop bath and a floor standing cast iron column radiator. The house was re-wired in 2018, and the double glazing has been replaced – the rear with pvc units in 2007 and in keeping with tradition, the front of the house has Victorian sash sliders that were installed in 2010. More recently, in 2021, the heating system was upgraded with the installation of a highly efficient Alpha combination boiler that comes with the remainder of a seven-year warranty. Early internal inspection is strongly advised to really appreciate the size, flexibility and standard of finish on offer within this very special home.
The property has a traditional layout with storm doors and an entrance vestibule opening into a warm and welcoming reception hallway with under stair storage and original staircase rising to the upper floor. There is an elegant formal lounge with a period fireplace and matching overmantel mirror to focal wall, along with a broad bay window over the gardens to front. The property further features a flexible side facing dining room/fourth bedroom, a comfortable rear sitting room and a sizeable kitchen featuring a range of base and wall mounted storage units with contrasting real wood work surface areas, inset Belfast sink, an integral fridge freezer, washing machine, and there is a freestanding range cooker. The kitchen also has ample space for a table and chairs and door giving direct access to the garden. The original sweeping staircase leads to the first floor through a split-level landing that gives access to a spacious rear facing double bedroom. The first-floor landing has two storage cupboards, hatch over to an invaluable attic storage area and provides access to the remaining two double bedrooms: The principal having a broad three section bay window overlooking the adjacent tennis courts. The main house bathroom comprising a white three-piece suite (freestanding bath) completes the accommodation overall.
The front garden is enclosed by perimeter hedging with and laid to lawn with planted borders. There is a driveway providing off-street parking for two cars that gives access to a substantial garage that runs the length of the property and has a further up and over door at the opposite side allowing access to the garden. The delightful rear gardens are fully enclosed and incorporate an expanse of lush lawn, along with mature apple, plum and cherry trees, and a paved patio ideal for entertaining/alfresco dining.
The property is quietly situated within arguably one of the most sought-after pockets in Cambuslang to the south of Glasgow and is conveniently placed for access to a host of amenities including nurseries, schools at both primary and secondary levels, a host of recreational facilities, Kirkhill golf course, Cambuslang tennis club and a variety of day-to-day shops. Kirkhill and Cambuslang train stations are a short walk away; the latter taking approximately 12 minutes to reach Glasgow Central station. In addition to this, there are excellent road links to the surrounding areas and the Central Belt motorway network.
