A brick built pre-war Semi-Detached House, by John Lawrence, located within the ever popular Western Garden Suburb district of Bearsden. It enjoys a fine corner garden (the corner of Maxwell Ave and North View) with a driveway and detached garage off North View. The house has been extended with the addition of a sizeable (some near 16 square metres) conservatory that makes for a very usable additional living room, off the dining kitchen.
As clients we'll see from our photographs the property is beautifully presented, the result of much effort and investment by the vendor over recent years. Since 2021 it has been redecorated throughout including tasteful panelled walls to dado level in the hall, staircase, upper hall, and shower room, along with quality floor coverings including gorgeous oak herringbone (hall, lounge, dining kitchen, conservatory), carpets (stair runner, upper hall, bedrooms), and tile(shower room).
Most significantly has been both the creation of the dining kitchen, in 2022(very much the heart of this lovely home), and the refitting of the bathroom into a luxurious shower room (December 2021). All windows are double glazed with white frames in uPVC. The gas central heating system has a Vokera combination boiler with new, traditionally styled, column radiators in all areas except the conservatory. As a touch of cosy luxury, for Autumn and Winter, the lounge fireplace features a real fire.
It really is a most comfortable home and one that will appeal to both families and couples.
Ground Floor
- An open entrance porch/vestibule provides an attractive entrée to the house.
- Hall - entered through a lovely original door with stained leaded glass panel. The hall has the gorgeous oak floor (which continues through the rest of the ground floor) and the very tasteful, painted, wall panelling.
- Lounge - with a wide box bay window to the front. At the focal point is a painted fire surround with slate inlay/hearth, and painted tiles, featuring the real open fire. To the side is a shelved alcove with cabinet. Picture real coving.
- Dining Kitchen - a most successful alteration. Window to side, open doorway to the conservatory. Double glazed rear door accessing back garden via steps (currently due for completion/sign-off). The kitchen, by Howdens, is of a classic design with pale grey coloured Shaker units with chrome cup handles. Work surfaces are laminate marble design including the centrepiece island with breakfast bar and a five-burner gas hob. Additional fitted appliances include - oven microwave, concealed dishwasher and fridgefreezer.Cool ‘metro’ wall tiling adds to the really classy design of the kitchen.

Garden
The corner garden is a real asset and is very private. Well screened by hedges and fences it makes for a lovely Spring/Summer retreat with its rear and side patios. It has areas of grass to rear, side, and to the front where there is a front pathway with garden gate. Below the conservatory extension is a useful storage cellar space. Trained over the garage roof is an established climber that is a lovely rust colour in the Autumn.
