Large family home with south-facing garden and garage in Bearsden’s Switchback district.
Four double bedrooms and three large reception rooms
Quietly set in Bearsden’s sought-after Switchback district, this substantial 1950s detached home offers flexible family living across two levels. The full-width dormer rear extension has created four double bedrooms and three large public rooms — useful for growing families who need separate reception and play or study spaces. A south-facing, private rear garden and mature front lawn provide excellent outdoor space for children and entertaining, with driveway parking and a single garage.
The house has been well loved and retains original character touches such as cast-iron radiators and a feature fireplace. Practical modern conveniences include excellent mobile signal and fast broadband speeds, and the property is in a convenient position for Westerton station, local shops and good school catchments. The overall footprint (about 1,932 sq ft) and room count (around ten rooms) make this a roomy family home with scope to adapt further.
There are clear renovation opportunities: the interior would benefit from redecoration and updating to current tastes and standards, and any side extension would require planning permission. The property is offered freehold with an EPC band C. Buyers should note council tax is Band G (quite expensive) and local area deprivation data is flagged as very deprived — prospective purchasers may wish to investigate local services and statistics. Flood risk is nil.
This house will suit families wanting space, garden privacy and good transport links, and buyers prepared to invest in modernising finishes will unlock the strongest long-term value.
