Craignewsky, Main Street, Neilston

Enjoying an excellent, private setting within the desirable East Renfrewshire commuter village of Neilston is this exceptionally spacious, extended, detached villa. Owned by the same family for over fifty years, and now in need of refurbishment and reconfiguration, the property is of an exceptional scale, and provides wonderful scope to an incoming purchaser to create an impressive, sizeable family home to their own requirements and specification. The property may also offer a fabulous opportunity to those seeking a re-development opportunity in prestigious area, with great existing demand locally.

Offering circa 3,500 sq. ft. of living and ancillary space, the property is of a unique type, being formed around a charming, historic core building, with more recent additions to front and side. Imposing, handsome entrance gates and brick perimeter boundaries form the front elevation of the property, while it benefits from it's position within a sizeable, level plot.

Our accompanying photography and floorplan will provide a better overview of the composition and style of the property. However, in short, the accommodation offered extends to: a double height reception hallway with impressive vestibule space, two public rooms (with the principle public space being in excess of 34 feet in length), four bedrooms (one with en-suite WC) , dining kitchen, and family bathroom. Perhaps some of the most impressive areas of the property are those currently used as practical workshop, garaging and storage space. These could offer amazing potential as fabulous additional family living space, as further self-contained apartment spaces for guests or relatives, or as fantastic home-working spaces (subject to the relevant consents). The property is served by gas central heating, and in the main is double glazed. While the property would benefit from a significant programme of improvement, the potential offered is clear.
