Summary - 68, DOUGLAS MUIR DRIVE, GLASGOW, MILNGAVIE G62 7RJ
Five double bedrooms plus flexible ground-floor office/bedroom five
Set on a private plot within Milngavie's sought-after Mains Estate, this five-bedroom detached villa offers spacious family living across two levels. The house measures approximately 1,615 sq ft and combines a bay-windowed principal reception, separate dining room, and a large fitted kitchen with a useful utility and integral double garage. The rear garden is level, private and described as rewilded — a low-maintenance, wildlife-friendly outdoor space.
The accommodation is presented in good order and benefits from gas central heating, double glazing and fast broadband with excellent mobile signal — handy for home working and family connectivity. Upstairs provides four double bedrooms plus a flexible fifth room/office and a modern four-piece family bathroom; the principal bedroom includes an en-suite and fitted wardrobes. Driveway parking supplements the large integral garage for multiple vehicles.
Practical points to note: the property is freehold and lies in the Douglas Academy catchment, making it particularly suitable for families seeking good schooling and easy rail links to Glasgow. Council tax is described as quite expensive, and local data flags the wider area as relatively deprived despite the immediate neighbourhood being comfortable suburbia. Buyers should factor these costs and local context into their decision.
Overall this is a substantial, well-maintained family home offering space, privacy and strong connectivity. It will suit buyers prioritising school catchment, commuting convenience and flexible living space, while those sensitive to ongoing tax/area indicators should investigate further.
