6 bed detached house for sale

Southernwood, 68 Main Street, Drymen, Glasgow G63

A charming Arts and Crafts residence set within beautifully landscaped gardens

Description
Southernwood is a graceful example of Arts and Crafts architecture, its white-rendered façade and steeply pitched rooflines blending seamlessly with the surrounding landscape.

Through the vestibule and into the entrance hall, the home begins to unfold. To the left, the sitting room welcomes with generous proportions and garden-facing windows. A fireplace anchors the room, and the carved mantel reflects the craftsmanship that defines the property.

Off the sitting room, the study offers a quiet retreat. With a timber-clad ceiling, built-in shelving and a large window, it’s a space designed for work, reading, or reflection.

At the rear, the kitchen/dining/family room forms the heart of daily life. Red herringbone tiles, a bold range cooker, and a large window above the sink create a space that’s both practical and full of charm. The adjoining family area is warmed by a fireplace and a substantial bay window overlooking the garden, ideal for relaxed gatherings.

A rear hallway leads to a guest bedroom/snug and a utility room with pantry, plus a vestibule to the garden. A shower room completes the downstairs layout and adds flexibility for visitors or multi-generational living.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom is well proportioned. Light pours in through three large windows, illuminating hardwood floors and a fireplace. The room is spacious with garden views that shift with the seasons.

Bedroom two, with its own en suite, is equally inviting. An arched doorway leads to the bathroom, while the room itself is bright and welcoming. Three further bedrooms complete the upper floor, each with individual character and outlook.

The family bathroom, with pedestal sink, blue-trimmed window, panelled bathtub and tiled surround, completes the internal accommodation.

Outside, the gardens are a delight. To the rear, lawns stretch toward the tree line, dotted with planted beds, a swing set, and a greenhouse tucked to one side. Raised beds are planted with vegetables and herbs. The grounds extend to approx. Half an acre – a generous plot for a house at the centre of village life.

Location
Southernwood enjoys a prime position in the sought-after village of Drymen, nestled on the eastern edge of Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park. This picturesque conservation village offers a rare blend of rural tranquillity and excellent connectivity, making it a highly desirable location for families and professionals alike.

The property is ideally situated on Main Street, within easy walking distance of the village’s charming amenities, including independent shops, cafés, and traditional pubs. Drymen is well known for its welcoming community atmosphere and scenic surroundings, with rolling countryside, woodland walks, and lochside trails all on the doorstep.

Despite its peaceful setting, Drymen offers convenient access to Glasgow city centre (approximately 18 miles), with regular transport links and road connections via the A809 and A81. The nearby towns of Milngavie and Bearsden provide further amenities, schooling options, and rail services.

For outdoor enthusiasts, the area is a gateway to some of Scotland’s most celebrated landscapes, including Conic Hill, the West Highland Way, and the shores of Loch Lomond. Golf, cycling, and equestrian pursuits are all well catered for locally.
