Property Description
Occupying an elevated position within one of Bearsden's most sought-after residential pockets, this charming detached bungalow enjoys commanding southerly views across Old Bearsden towards the Glasgow skyline. Set amidst generous and beautifully maintained garden grounds, the property offers exceptionally versatile family accommodation, complemented by a wonderfully private rear garden screened by mature trees.
Lovingly cared for and meticulously maintained throughout the current owner's long tenure, the home is presented in excellent condition and provides flexible living spaces perfectly suited to modern family life.
A welcoming entrance vestibule opens into a bright reception hall from which the principal accommodation flows. To the front, a spacious formal lounge enjoys a wonderful southerly aspect, flooding the room with natural light and providing attractive outlooks across the surrounding district. Opposite, a generously proportioned dining room offers an ideal setting for both family gatherings and entertaining.
Situated to the rear of the property, the principal bedroom enjoys peaceful garden views, while a further single bedroom on the ground floor offers flexibility for family living, guest accommodation or home working. The well-appointed kitchen is fitted with a range of base and wall-mounted cabinetry, complemented by ample worktop space and provision for appliances. A family bathroom, fitted with a three-piece suite and over-bath shower, completes the ground floor accommodation.
A staircase rises from the reception hall to the upper level, where two further bedrooms provide additional versatile accommodation, ideal for growing families or those seeking dedicated workspace.
The property benefits from double glazing throughout and is warmed by a gas-fired central heating system.
Externally, the gardens are a particular feature of the home. The front garden is attractively terraced, incorporating a colourful rockery and mature planting which create an appealing first impression. To the rear, the terraced garden enjoys areas of lawn and offers a wonderful sense of privacy. From the uppermost section of the garden, magnificent panoramic views can be enjoyed across the property, Old Bearsden and beyond towards the Glasgow skyline. A timber garage, located at the end of Thomson Drive on Kilmardinny, provides excellent additional storage.

Thomson Drive is superbly positioned to take advantage of the outstanding amenities that have long made Bearsden one of Glasgow's most desirable suburbs. The property falls within the catchment area for the highly regarded Bearsden Primary School and Bearsden Academy, both recognised amongst East Dunbartonshire's highest-performing schools.
Bearsden Cross and nearby Milngavie Village offer an excellent selection of shops, cafés, bars and restaurants, together with a range of everyday conveniences including Marks & Spencer Food Hall, Waitrose, Tesco and Asda. The area also boasts a wide variety of recreational opportunities, with several highly regarded golf, tennis and bowling clubs nearby, alongside the Allander Leisure Centre and Nuffield Health Fitness & Wellbeing Club.
