Ingleside, 21 Monreith Road

Occupying a prominent position in the heart of Newlands, Ingleside is a substantial semi-detached property, according to research designed by John Thomson, the eldest son of the famous Glasgow architect Alexander “Greek” Thomson. Our clients have maintained and upgraded their home since taking ownership some 47 years ago and it will appeal to astute buyers keen to source something big and special.

The accommodation in brief; tiled vestibule via twin storm doors, an impressive wood panelled hallway with cloak room / WC adjacent, a dual aspect, bay windowed lounge with coal fire and a designated dining room with side facing bay window formation. The hallway then leads past two understairs cupboards to a sizeable, rear facing dining kitchen and a separate reading room/study. The kitchen has a door leading to the back garden and the reading room/study also has French doors providing level access to the rear garden.

The original staircase with a beautiful timber balustrade leads from the ground floor through half landing to first floor level revealing four double bedrooms and a contemporary four piece bathroom. The principal bedroom is of particular note featuring dual aspect windows and a cleverly installed ensuite shower and small porcelain sink. A further concealed staircase leads to second floor level and into a sizeable attic room, potentially another bedroom with four Velux rooflights and excellent eaves storage.

Numerous period features are still in situ including leaded glass, fire surrounds, moulded woodwork, detailed ceiling plasterwork and ornate features above the doorways in the hall. The property has fantastic fitted storage, a combination of single and double glazed windows as well as gas central heating controlled using the Hive app.

Ingleside is set in private grounds bound by perimeter walls with gated driveway parking via twin gate piers. A double detached garage under a pitched roof provides power and light and terrific storage provision. The secluded rear garden is generally laid as lawn with beddings and hard landscaped areas for seating/al fresco entertainment.
