* NEW PRICE * This traditional cottage has been extended to provide over 2700sqft of flexible living space. Benefitting from a private gated entrance, and large garden grounds off a quiet lane, this is a tranquil pocket yet just 16 miles from Glasgow City Centre. Perfectly tailored for those seeking a peaceful lifestyle with seamless access to local amenities and transport routes, this is an ideal haven for a growing family looking to put a personal touch on their perfect family abode.

As you step through the grand entrance hall, be greeted by a timber staircase leading up to a galleried landing, setting the tone for the abundance of space that awaits within. To the right, a spacious lounge beckons, boasting a stone open fire and vast dual-aspect windows that bathe the room in natural light, offering picturesque views of the lush garden surroundings.

Flowing seamlessly from the lounge, discover the heart of the home - the kitchen, with its light-filled ambience and open plan to an area adorned with skylights, previously utilised as a dining room but adaptable to various configurations such as an additional family room or home office. Bright, inviting, and connected to the outdoors through French doors, the kitchen exudes a warm atmosphere perfect for family gatherings and daily living.

Exploring further, find convenient laundry facilities discreetly tucked away in the separate utility room, adding a touch of practicality to the home's appeal, while three well-proportioned bedrooms, two with ample storage await down the hallway, along with a generous family bathroom to cater to every-day needs.

Fancy more flexible living spaces? Retreat through the kitchen to an upper landing, where a versatile dining room can easily become a home gym, playroom, or snug, offering endless possibilities to suit your lifestyle.

Venturing to the split level, discover more surprises with an generous additional bedroom featuring double glazed doors with Juliette balcony and upstairs, a potential luxurious principle suite, complete with dressing room, an added lounge, and a bedroom with en-suite that promises a serene retreat away from the hustle and bustle of daily life.

Outside, the fully enclosed garden beckons with its mix of mature trees, shrubs, and colourful borders, providing a peaceful sanctuary for children and pets to roam freely. With a spacious lawn for play and a chipped drive offering parking for multiple vehicles, this home offers both tranquillity and convenience in one delightful package, while an adjacent thicket of land presents further possibilities, available by separate negotiation.
