Details

A truly magnificent stone-fronted main door lower quarter villa, strategically positioned at the corner of Fishescoates Avenue/Blairbeth Road. This exceptional property boasts a larger-than-normal plot, featuring fully enclosed, generously sized gardens both to the front and rear, along with off-street driveway parking and a garage situated at the far end of the rear garden.

Recently undergoing extensive upgrades, this outstanding quarter villa offers all on the level accommodation, making it an ideal choice for a mature downsizer or any buyer seeking a turnkey property. The impressive list of improvements includes replacement floor coverings and internal doors, the installation of a stunning Wren kitchen in the former second public room, a re-fitted utility room (formerly the kitchen), and a contemporary shower room. Upgraded electrical wiring, fully bonded to meet current safety standards, and a new main board consumer unit add to the modern amenities. The property is equipped with an efficient Baxi combination boiler and Hive controller for gas-fired central heating. Recently upgraded double glazed window units, fitted window shutters in the lounge and bedroom, and a replacement composite front entrance door enhance the property's exterior. On the outside, the building has been professionally painted, and significant investment has been made in landscaping the front and rear gardens, resulting in attractive, low-maintenance outdoor spaces with seasonal colour and multiple options for outdoor dining, including a south-facing patio. Secure off-street parking is ensured with the addition of gates to the driveway.

Internally, the property comprises a private vestibule leading to a warm and welcoming reception hallway with excellent in-built storage. Access is provided to all rooms, including a wonderful lounge featuring a fireplace detail and a living flame gas fire on the focal wall, complemented by a broad bay window overlooking the front gardens. The dining-sized kitchen is immediately impressive, rear-facing with a large picture window offering views across the City towards Ben Lomond and the Campsie Hills. The kitchen includes a valuable pantry cupboard and high-end integral appliances such as a dishwasher, wine cooler, double oven, and gas hob. The adjacent utility room has an integral fridge, freezer, ample space for freestanding appliances, and provides access to a rear porch and the private garden. A fabulous double-sized bedroom and a luxury, fully tiled shower room with underfloor hearing complete the accommodation.

The large garage at the rear offers an excellent opportunity for conversion into an outside office, gym, or studio, equipped with existing lighting and electrical sockets.

The property is positioned within walking distance of shops and amenities upon Stonelaw Road where extensive facilities can be found in Rutherglen Main Street and further afield at Kingsgate Retail Park which is only a short drive away. Recreational pursuits within the general area include well-maintained parks, bowling/golf clubs, gyms and excellent schooling is available locally at primary and secondary levels.
