Description
Offered to the market for the first time in thirty-six years and without a doubt one of the most charming, landmark buildings on Brownside Road, ‘Firs Lodge’ is a detached stone fronted bungalow dating from 1910, on a magnificent garden plot within a prime location close to Burnside and the many and varied amenities on Stonelaw Road.
The house offers an incredibly spacious and versatile four apartment layout that would be ideal for a couple or individual – perhaps particularly suiting those seeking an all-on-the-level home for retirement. The specification includes original timber windows with secondary glazing, a contemporary wet room that was added in early 2021, gas fired central heating by way of a highly efficient Worcester combination boiler installed in late 2021 and the property has been fitted with a burglar alarm for added peace of mind. Early internal inspection is strongly advised to appreciate the extent and flexibility of accommodation on offer within this very special home.
In terms of accommodation the property comprises a particularly large reception hallway with walk-in store cupboard off. There is a comfortable double aspect formal lounge with inset living flame gas fire to focal wall. The kitchen has been extensively fitted and offers ample space for freestanding appliances and a dining table and chairs. The kitchen gives direct access to the rear garden and has doors leading off to a comfortable sitting room with an adjacent walk-in store cupboard and a full height bay style window/French door giving further access to the rear garden. There are two spacious double sized bedrooms; the principal having wall length fitted wardrobes providing good shelve and hanging space, and the accommodation is completed by a well-appointed wet room.
The house sits on a well-established, level garden plot that is well screened by mature trees aiding in a good degree of privacy/seclusion, particularly at the rear. The gardens are predominantly laid to lawn with a variety of planted shrubs borders along with a decked seating area within the rear garden that is ideal for entertaining/alfresco dining, and there is a driveway to front providing ample off-street parking.
The property sits in a much sought after and convenient pocket of Cambuslang, an established suburb to the southeast of Glasgow. The property is conveniently placed for access to a host of amenities including schools at both primary and secondary levels, recreational facilities, golf course, rugby club and a variety of day-to-day shops. Burnside, Kirkhill and Cambuslang railway stations are all close by, the latter being on the main Glasgow to Edinburgh line taking approximately 15 minutes to reach Central Station. In addition to this, there are excellent road links to the surrounding areas and the Central Belt motorway network system. The Energy Performance rating on this property is Band D.
