Description

A truly impressive and substantial, semi-detached stone-built villa, dating from the turn of the century, with open views and a south-facing garden at the rear, sitting in one of the area’s most cherished addresses.

Sure to appeal to the Rutherglen family market due to its generous room dimensions and versatile six apartment layout, this striking family home showcases beautifully restored period features, including its original floorboards in all main apartments, intricate cornicing, and elegant woodwork and architraves, complemented by the reinstatement of stunning stained leaded glass on the transom window above the main door in the vestibule. In 2019, the current owners undertook a full and sympathetic restoration at considerable expense, elevating the property to the highest of modern standards while preserving its character. Notable highlights include a professionally designed and installed kitchen and bathroom, a full rewire, extensive re plastering, and fresh, tasteful décor throughout. The property benefits from under floor insulation on the ground level, double-glazed windows, some of which have been recently replaced, and an efficient gas-fired central heating system powered by a Potterton combination boiler.

The traditional layout begins with twin storm doors and an entrance vestibule, opening into an expansive reception hallway with under-stair storage, a cloakroom/W.C, and an original staircase ascending to the upper level. The formal lounge is a true standout, featuring a log-burning stove as a focal point and a large bay window overlooking the front garden. At the rear, a flexible dining/sitting room provides access to the breathtaking kitchen, which can also be entered via the reception hallway. Framed by a picturesque window with views of the garden and open outlook, the kitchen is extensively fitted with a range of base and wall-mounted storage units, a central breakfasting island, and high-quality appliances, including a freestanding range cooker and an American-style fridge freezer. The adjacent utility porch provides access to the rear garden and accommodates plumbing and space for a washing machine and tumble dryer.

The original sweeping staircase leads to the first floor through a split-level landing, where the fourth bedroom and a spectacular four-piece family bathroom with under floor heating are located. The first-floor landing gives access to three further double bedrooms, with the principal bedroom enjoying a broad bay window to the front.

Externally, the property has an easily managed front garden and a driveway leading to an attached garage with power, lighting, and separate rear door access. The fully enclosed rear garden is a delightful space featuring a level lawn, vegetable planters, and a raised patio, ideal for entertaining and alfresco dining. Two large basement storage rooms with power and lighting provide additional space and offer potential for future development, subject to the necessary permissions and consents.

Clincarthill Road is considered one of the districts most coveted addresses and although quietly positioned is conveniently placed for access to all local amenities including schools at both primary and secondary levels, shops, supermarkets, and excellent public transport services including Burnside/Rutherglen train stations which are only a short distance away. In addition to this, there are excellent road links close by giving easy access to Glasgow City Centre and the Central Belt motorway network system.
