BORROWFIELD LODGE CARDROSS
Situated directly opposite Cardross Golf Course, this magnificent and spacious modern detached bungalow is situated on the site of a former Victorian mansion house built for the Denny ship building family. The main house was bombed during the war but the stone built coach house still stands. The new house is deceptively spacious and comprises a 30ft open plan lounge and dining room with large conservatory off, TV room, large dining kitchen, laundry, four large double bedrooms, three refitted bathrooms (two of which are ensuite) and a large upstairs office measuring 32ft by 23ft. The extensive garden grounds are beautifully laid out with neat lawns, very well stocked colourful shrub beds and mature trees bounded on all sides by high stone walling with high mature hedging on the south most boundary. High wrought iron gates access the block paved parking bay adjacent to the coach house and there is a further gravelled parking bay. This area will accommodate eight or nine cars with ease. The stone built coach house contains two lock up garages and two workshops on the ground floor. Upstairs there is a small sitting room with an open fireplace and two small bedrooms, all in a neglected state. The local planners have informally stated they would allow the coach house to be converted into a single dwelling with up to four bedrooms. On the southerly gable of the coach house there is a lovely greenhouse with a riven paved patio in front. There is an extensive block paved sun patio on the east most gable and along the entire length of the south elevation. From the patio there is direct access to the sitting room, conservatory and rear entrance vestibule.
After the Victorian house was bombed, the Dowager Lady Denny built a bungalow on the site in 1952. This was bought by local builder James Ritchie in the 1960’s and rebuilt with various extensions. The current owner bought the house 18 years ago and subjected it to a comprehensive refurbishment program. Reference to the enclosed interior photographs, the house now features magnificent solid light oak finishings and doors throughout. Worthy of particular note is the fitted master bedroom furniture which extends over three walls and into the ensuite bathroom. Included in the sale subjects are all fitted carpets, window and roof blinds, all curtains, all light fittings, integrated dishwasher, fridge, microwave and Aga cooker. All windows throughout the property are double glazed and there is a full gas fired central heating system installed. All dÊcor, carpets and fittings are to the very highest standard and there are living flame gas fires in the lounge and television room. This perfect family home is just a few minutes walk from an excellent local primary school, five minutes walk from the local childrens nursery and five minutes walk from the local train station. The village shops will cater for daily needs and more extensive facilities are available in neighbouring Dumbarton or Helensburgh, both about 5 minutes drive. The village has its own library, tennis club, bowling, golf club and the local shops include a chemist and hairdressers. The clubhouse for Cardross Golf Club is literally across the road and the world renowned Loch Lomond Golf Course and Cameron House leisure complex are 8.5 miles distant.
