Property for sale in Cairns Road, Cambuslang, Glasgow G72

Hemmings Homes are delighted to welcome to the market this beautiful and seldom available, double-fronted 7 apartment, detached sandstone villa. This substantial property offers three flexible reception rooms, a charming dining kitchen and four/five bedrooms offering a flexible layout. Set in the desirable Kirkhill area of Cambuslang, and across from historic Cambuslang Park, the property has extensive outdoor areas which are situated in a prime corner plot on Cairns Road.

Over the last twenty years the property has benefited from various enhancements and maintenance such as composite gating to the front, replacement of soffits to low maintenance uPVC, sash and case style uPVC windows at the upper front bay windows, as well as improvements to insulation, and remodelling of the upstairs accommodation including a new contemporary family bathroom.

This characterful one and a half storey property also provides a multitude of storage options with the current owners having invested in lining and lighting multiple eaves storage areas, enlarging the hatch to access attic storage as well as the traditional pantry and cloak cupboards, outhouses, utility room and sizeable rear porch.

The accommodation on offer is set over two levels with the ground floor comprising an appealing panelled entrance vestibule leading into a welcoming and characterful hallway. From this central hallway you can access all three ground floor reception rooms, dining kitchen and family bathroom.
The bright formal lounge with large bay window floods the room with natural light, enjoys views to the front garden and showcases the age of the property with its deep cornice and grand ceiling rose. Across the hall, a generous dining room provides ample space for hospitality.

Also accessible from the hallway is a 3 piece family bathroom with electric shower, coat cupboard and useful under stair storage space. The third reception room is currently utilised as a double office but has previously been flexibly used as a family room and downstairs 5th bedroom. From this room are peaceful views to the rear lawned garden. An enticing dining kitchen, also to the rear of the property, has been tastefully refitted and comes with integral appliances, ample wall and base units and free standing range cooker. From here, access is gained to the utility room which incorporates space for a washing machine and dryer. A good sized rear porch, once used as an office, leads to the rear garden and completes the significant accommodation comprising the ground floor.

Ascending the sweeping original staircase from the hall, leads to a half landing and continues to the substantial upper landing from which all first floor rooms can be accessed. The spacious primary bedroom incorporates fitted wardrobes and drawers, window seat, accessible eaves storage, a generous dormer bay window and private access to the upstairs family bathroom. The second generously sized double bedroom similarly has a bright large bay window, newly installed Sharps fitted wardrobe and accessible eaves storage.

The recently installed family bathroom cleverly allows jack and jill entry both from the upper landing and the primary bedroom, and comprises wc, sink, bath with shower over and Bluetooth heated lighted cabinet.

Bedrooms three and four are of ample size, both including blackout rollerblinds while the smaller of the two includes two utp network points for gamers not wanting to be restricted to wifi speeds and has full length lighted eaves storage.

Outside, the front of the property includes a lawned area and is framed with long established lime trees and hedging and low sandstone walling. Surrounding views take in neighbouring sandstone villas and the delightful treeline of Cambuslang Park.
Gated paths to both sides of the property lead to the rear gardens which include a private area of lawn, two patio seating locations, young fruit trees and garage. To the side bordering Huntly Drive, is a sizeable block paving driveway, sufficient for a caravan and car to be parked and a kitchen garden plot. At the rear of the porch two small outhouse storage areas area accessible.

Features of the property include double glazing throughout, traditional high ceilings, flexible layout, extensive storage and an abundance of charm and character which makes this period property the perfect family home. The selling agent highly recommends early internal inspection to fully appreciate the size and standard of accommodation on offer and to avoid disappointment.
