The gardens really stand out when you arrive at 8 Cullernie Gardens. Trees, colourful plants and flowers, neatly kept lawns and several separate places to sit surround this detached bungalow in Balloch, with a detached garage and summer house adding even more outside. Inside, you have everything you could need including a separate dining room which can also become a third bedroom, giving you a home that would suit a couple wanting more space or a small family.
From the front, a wide gravel driveway runs alongside the house towards the detached garage, giving you plenty of space for private parking. To the side, an entrance porch also doubles as a utility area, which is a really useful way to come into the house. Soft green walls are matched with timber effect cabinets and a dark worktop, with space for the everyday appliances you would rather keep out of the main kitchen. A long timber shelf and coat hooks give you somewhere for bags, jackets and outdoor clothing too.
From here you move into the kitchen. This is a really good size, with cabinets running in a u-shape around three sides. The light timber effect doors have long brushed metal handles, with dark worktops and matching splashbacks behind. A black Bosch induction hob is set into the worktop with an oven built into the cabinet beneath. Under cabinet lighting runs along the main units while ceiling spotlights help to keep the room well lit.
From here you move into the hallway, where the same soft green colour continues around the walls. White internal doors and skirtings keep everything fresh, with a neutral carpet underfoot.
At the front of the home is a generously sized living room. Three walls are painted in a pale blue/green shade, while the chimney breast wall is painted a deeper teal colour.
The crisp white fireplace has a gas fire set within, giving the room a strong focal point. A large window stretches across much of the front wall and there’s plenty of floor space here for a sofa suite, chairs and additional furniture.
The first bedroom currently fits two single beds. Its bright appearance includes light pink coloured walls while a large window looks out on the front garden. Along the opposite side of the room is a wide built in wardrobe with pale timber effect sliding doors, giving you plenty of storage.
Bedroom two is another comfortable double with similar pink walls and a large window bringing plenty of daylight into the room. This room also has a built in wardrobe with timber effect sliding doors, leaving plenty of space around the bed for drawers and other bedroom furniture.
Along the hall is an additional room that can be a third bedroom or be used, as it is at the moment, as a comfortable separate dining space. It has light blue painted walls and enough room for a full dining table and chairs without squeezing everything together. If you need three bedrooms instead, it can comfortably accommodate a double bed and additional furniture.
The shower room has beige stone effect tiles around the walls, broken up by a narrow mosaic border running around the room while the floor has a grey finish with a looping white line pattern that gives it a bit more interest than a plain bathroom floor. A large curved shower enclosure sits in one corner, with chrome fittings inside and a white basin and toilet alongside.
The rear garden has clearly been developed over many years, with fully grown trees, shrubs and plants creating lots of smaller areas. There are green lawns running between the beds, gravelled sections and a mixture of colours and textures wherever you look. Beside the garage is a raised timber deck with room for a table, chairs and parasol, giving you a proper outdoor seating area. The timber summer house has glazed double doors opening onto a gravelled area surrounded by shrubs and flowers. It gives you somewhere separate to sit, read or spend time away from the main house, while the additional plastic shed takes care of garden tools and equipment.
This home has been very well cared for and the outside space is a big part of its appeal. You have a detached bungalow with everything on one level, two bedrooms plus the option of a third, a good sized kitchen, separate utility entrance, garage, summer house and a garden with plenty of character.
