Property Description
What the sellers say
“12 Broom Gardens has been a happy family home for over 50 years. The large, secluded, back garden and the wonderful views of the Campsie Fells make this a very special place to live. We have particularly enjoyed having direct access to the many lovely walks along the Kirkintilloch Canal, through Boghead Wood and up over Lenzie Moss. We couldn’t have asked for better neighbours and there is a real sense of community and looking out for one another. It is however time for us to sell this much-loved home to new owners who we are sure will be as happy living here as we have been.”
Description
Fabulous 3 bedroom home with an extensive amount of living space in a great location.
A large driveway with off-street parking for three cars leads to the main entrance. Inside, a wide, welcoming hall opens into the lounge which has dual aspect windows over the mature front and back gardens. This well-proportioned L-shaped open plan layout with the dining area overlooking the back garden and a lovely front view to the nearby countryside has plenty of natural light, making this living space the very heart of the home.
The kitchen, accessible from both the dining area and the hall, is generously sized with both base and wall mounted units. Included in the sale are the double oven, hob, extractor fan, dishwasher, fridge, freezer and washing machine. In particular, the view from the kitchen is most attractive as it overlooks the tranquil back garden and there is a back door leading to the patio area.
Returning to the lounge, a door opens to a cosy seating area with a relaxing view through patio windows to the back garden – a perfect sun lit corner for a quiet morning coffee. A door leads into the double garage.
Completing the downstairs accommodation is the front-facing double bedroom with handy WC next to it.
Passing back through the lounge, above the double garage, viewers will find the sizeable family room which has a wonderful cathedral ceiling with decorative beams offering a superb sense of spaciousness and calm. This would be the perfect gathering place for family celebrations or entertaining friends all year round.
From the main entrance hall, stairs lead to the upper level where there are two well-proportioned double bedrooms with substantial built in wardrobes as well as access to the floored eaves, an ideal solution for storage of items used only occasionally. Peaceful views over the Campsie Fells add to the attractiveness of these rooms. The modern family bathroom is fully tiled in neutral tones and benefits from a separate shower cubicle. There is access from the upper landing to the fully floored and lit attic which provides more storage space.
Outside, the beautifully landscaped back garden is fully enclosed by established hedging and bushes along the boundaries, and this creates a relaxing haven to enjoy the carefully tended garden from the comfort of the patio area or the pretty seating area nestled in the top corner of the garden. The lawn, reached via a small number of steps, is the perfect place for children to play. The southeast facing back garden enjoys sunshine from morning till early evening – ideal for alfresco dining during the summer months. The front garden is mainly laid to lawn and has an attractive seating area to enjoy the views.
