DUNARBUCK East Lodge is another well-concealed dual lifestyle property, situated just off the A82 at Bowling in an elevated, tree-lined setting with scenic views towards the River Clyde.
Built in 1926, this detached one-off cottage spans an internal area of 1,872 square feet over two levels in a re-configured layout comprising two reception rooms, dining kitchen, main bathroom and two ground floor bedrooms.
More surprising, the third bedroom occupies the whole of the upper floor – a huge 28ft L-shaped bed-sitting room with four Velux windows and an en suite shower room. This room’s size and shape offers myriad alternative uses/combinations and could easily incorporate a gym, art studio, study or fourth bedroom.
This home has fine original features, including hardwood floors, – most notably the herringbonepatterned parquet floor in the dining room -– original doors and timber-framed astragal windows. At the end of the hall, the living room has an open fire and striking bay window overlooking the gardens, while the fitted dining kitchen has a slate-tiled floor and Rayburn range cooker.
This would be a very easy house to fall in love with, owing to its unique blend of interior features, character, layout, and the most wonderful setting surrounded by open countryside, yet close to Bowling and Old Kilpatrick railway stations, Erskine Bridge, Glasgow Airport and the A82/ Great Western Road leading east to the city centre and north-west to Loch Lomond.
Dunarbuck East Lodge is an appealing home for all ages and stages – for sale with Clyde Property in Bearsden at offers over £299,000.
