5 bedroom detached house for sale

Set along one of Old Bearsden’s most prestigious crescents, 23 Ledcameroch Crescent is a magnificent stone-built residence of rare character, stature and historical significance. Commissioned originally for the family of Henry Burton, the home’s heritage is immediately evident in its remarkable entrance door, salvaged from a notable Glasgow commercial building in the 1960s when new regulations required the removal of ornate glass shopfronts. This exceptional piece of craftsmanship forms a memorable first impression and sets the tone for the exceptional period detailing that unfolds throughout.

The interior is a celebration of period artistry. Grand, beautifully proportioned rooms are enriched with traditional features, from elegant timber finishes to soaring ceilings, culminating in the lounge’s breathtaking Lincrusta ceiling, an intricate, hand-embossed masterpiece seldom found in private homes.

To the front of the home lie two formal lounges, each with its own distinct atmosphere: one centred around an extraordinary ornate open fireplace, the other warmed by a charming log-burning stove framed by a polished brass surround. These rooms exemplify the home’s blend of elegance, comfort and artistry. To the rear, a substantial formal dining room offers a superb setting for entertaining, while the fully fitted dining kitchen, complete with a range of wall and base units and an AGA as its centrepiece, serves as the functional heart of the home. From here, a large utility room and an ideally positioned W/C provide further convenience.

Ascending the staircase, you pass an impressive series of stained-glass windows that illuminate the generous upper landing. From here, four beautifully sized bedrooms are accessed. The principal suite enjoys its own luxurious four-piece en-suite bathroom, while bedrooms two and three share a Jack-and-Jill style en-suite shower room. A well-appointed family bathroom with shower-over-bath completes this level. A further fixed staircase leads to the expansive attic room, offering excellent versatility for use as a studio, den or additional living space.

Framed by mature, tranquil gardens, the property enjoys an exceptional sense of privacy while sitting just moments from Bearsden Cross, top-performing schools and the area’s finest amenities. Distinguished by its heritage, craftsmanship and scale, 23 Ledcameroch Crescent represents a rare opportunity to own one of Bearsden’s most remarkable and admired family homes.
