MARCHDYKE is a home that will thrill those looking to strike an aesthetic balance between traditional and modern.
Occupying a prime site on Burnside Road, in the affluent Higher Whitecraigs suburb nine miles from Glasgow city centre, this distinctive detached bungalow’s facade displays traditional features typical of its Edwardian era, from the jaunty cone-shaped turret roof, tall chimney stack and stained/leaded windows, to the red brick detailing and mature garden grounds.
Inside, however, the interior design is strikingly contemporary, which serves to accentuate retained period features – sweeping archways, display niches, inglenook-style fireplace, porthole windows framing colourful stained glass, and most impressive of all, a visually striking reception hall with painted wood panelling, fireplace and wood flooring.
Comprehensively upgraded and re-designed by the present owners, the accommodation is deceptively spacious, spanning an internal area of more than 3,500 square feet over two levels. Off the entrance porch and hall are two reception rooms, sunroom with garden access, dining room leading into refitted/integrated 20ft bespoke kitchen with central island/breakfast bar, bi-fold doors to a decked terrace and garden beyond, and adjoining utility. Completing the ground floor layout is a cloakroom and two en suite double bedrooms (master with additional dressing room) - upstairs are three further bedrooms (one en suite) and luxuriously appointed 14ft family bathroom.
Outside, the enclosed garden grounds feature several lawns, well-stocked borders, strategically positions terraces (south-west facing at the rear) and a sizable monobloc driveway leading to a detached double garage. Marchdyke is a turnkey family home in a prestigious, high-amenity suburb with access to some of Scotland’s top performing schools. Coupled with the high-spec interior design and wow factor, it could prove irresistible.
