Description

Ralston Road is home to some of the finest homes in Bearsden. No.24 was built by the highly admired builder, John Russell, and is a pre-war villa of handsome lines. Brick built and finished in fresh painted render it has an impressive mansard roof in lovely Rosemary tile along with modern dry-ridge tiles. Apart from a retained stained leaded French door and side window in the lounge, all windows, and French doors, have been replaced with high-quality hardwood framed, double glazed, units. Central heating is mains gas and here the boiler was renewed only in March 2025.

The house has been owned by the vendor for well over three decades and throughout that period has been maintained and significantly improved.

As clients will clearly see from our photographs, and video, the subjects are exceedingly well appointed. Assets include the handmade kitchen and the vanity units in both the bathroom and the ensuite shower room, and the also handmade wardrobe cabinets in bedrooms one and two. Internal doors were replaced with quality, flush, sets that beautifully marry the original Douglas Fir skirtings, facings and architraves. Throughout, most of the house has oak flooring with LVT (possibly Amtico) in the bathroom and shower room.

The primary bedroom is a suite and here not only is there a generous bedroom with bay window but the assets of a large ensuite shower room and a dressing room (laterally used as a library/office).

The house is on the southerly side of Ralston Road, arguably the preferred side given the extent of the rear gardens there and the due south orientation they afford.

Summary of Accommodation

Ground Floor

Entrance vestibule with storm doors, reception hall, WC, generous lounge with windows front and rear including a bay (plus the feature side window and French door), bay windowed dining room, garden room (breakfast or morning room) with French doors to rear garden, the hand painted bespoke kitchen which has integrated appliances and a mix of granite and beech worktops.

First Floor

A return flight stair ascends past a two-frame landing window to a spacious upper hall, the bay windowed primary bedroom with dressing room and impressive ensuite shower room featuring a large Makti shower enclosure with thermostatic shower, three further double bedrooms (bedroom 2 also with a bay window), bathroom with spa bath.

Garden

The garden is entirely level and, as detailed, a sizable plot of some 0.386 acre. To the front it is very well screened from the road with a white painted gate opening to a large gravel drive flanked by a lawn, hedges and planting. Paths to either side of the house lead to the sizeable south facing rear garden. This is bordered by well-trimmed hedges, predominantly beech, and an extensive area of grass (ideal for the kids to play upon). A slabbed sun terrace runs across the full width of the house and adjacent is another patio. By the kitchen back door is an attached store and amid shrubbery and some trees are two timber garden sheds.

Location

Ralston Road is one of the most admired locations in Bearsden and one of Glasgow's prime addresses. Lined with ancient 300-year-old beech trees it lies literally ½ mile to the north of Bearsden Cross and therefore within minutes’ walk of the excellent shops and amenities there, particularly by using the shortcut through Gartconnell Lane (The Loan). The road features some of the area's finest homes, largely all individual design, with the even numbered homes being on the southerly side.

Calling Ralston Road home would undoubtedly be a proud claim.

This is a house where so much has been invested over the years and one that will surely impress those who view.
