Describes how you own a property. There are different types of tenure - freehold, leasehold, and commonhold.Read more about tenure in our glossary page.

Freehold

Description

A Detached, ranch style, modern Bungalow in a sizeable garden of some 0.4 acres tucked away behind two Victorian villas that front Glasgow Road. Formerly part of the garden to no.48 the house was built more than 50 years ago and a small extension was then added to the northern gable to provide a utility/laundry room and a workroom accessed.

Whilst most windows have been replaced with modern uPVC framed, double-glazed, windows (bar the older uPVC window of the lounge and the extension which has the original timber framed double-glazed units) and the gas central heating system has a modern (2019) Glow-Worm ultimate 30c combination boiler it is fair to highlight, as clients can see from the photographs/video and the Home Report, that the subjects are still largely of the original spec.

There is fantastic scope, therefore, for a buyer to make the necessary upgrades and changes to make the house into a far more current home and in so doing add value.

The design of the original bungalow is such that all internal walls are partition walls and so there is even scope, subject to building warrants, to reconfigure the internal layout. Externally, again subject to planning consents, there is an opportunity to change the look of the house and also to further extend.

This really could be a very exciting opportunity for the party looking to stamp their own mark upon a house and to create something of their own style and taste.

Accommodation

Entrance vestibule, reception hall with hallway off, large lounge, large dining room, kitchen, 4 bedrooms, bathroom, WC, utility/laundry room, workshop.

Outside

The garden is generous with the whole plot extending to over 0.4 acres. It lies mainly to grass and is accessed via a driveway that is set between the Victorian villas of 48 and 50 Glasgow Road over which 50A has a right of access. To the back of the house is a detached double garage (one sliding garage door for access), plus additional pass door, in front of which is a carport. The garage too is dated and upon the garden are three old garden sheds and two old greenhouses. The garden is well screened from the neighbouring properties with an orchard garden providing privacy from No.50. A dense bank of laurels and some trees provides a suitable screen to the railway line that lies beyond the west boundary, and beyond which are the expenses of Milngavie’s Lennox Park.

Situation

The house is fantastically central for the village centre, the railway station, and Town Hall. Discretely set behind the two Victorian houses it enjoys near total privacy and yet is minutes’ walk to the varied amenities and shops that Milngavie offers. For families, school catchment is Milngavie Primary and the high performing Douglas Academy.
