50 Netherblane, Blanefield 50 Netherblane, Blanefield G63 9JP
Netherblane, also known as High Pines, is a very established development of two and three bedroomed flats from the early 1970s with a truly delightful situation amidst tended residents’ grounds that incorporates, as its centre-piece, its own private loch. It is only those apartments on the southerly side of the development that have a direct view over this loch and in this property (No. 50) you have an elevated ground floor, two bedroomed apartment that enjoys one of the best aspects.
The view is one that you would not grow tired of – a truly lovely outlook across lawns towards the trees that surround this wonderful water-feature on which ducks, geese and swans are regularly spotted and within the grounds wildlife, including deer. The apartment has its own sun-balcony and is south-facing ensuring that the rooms, on this side of the flat, (kitchen and the lounge / dining room) are flooded with light and in the balcony, during those warm and sunny Spring and Summer days, a rather pleasant outside space to relax and enjoy the view.
This apartment is one of the smartest we have seen in recent times and has been significantly upgraded over the years including replacement double glazed windows as well as replacement upvc double glazed patio doors from the lounge / dining room onto the balcony. The kitchen has a range of modern kitchen units in white high-gloss with a contrasting work-surface with appliances including a ceramic hob, an electric oven, a stainless steel / glass filter cooker hood, washer-dryer, dishwasher and a fridge freezer. The bathroom has been modernised with a three-piece white suite with w.c., wash-hand basin and a “shower bath” bath over which there is an electric shower by Triton. There are two bedrooms with the main bedroom being rather cleverly redesigned to incorporate a walk-in dressing room / closet fitted out with hanging space, drawers, storage shelves and a pull-out shoe rack. Bedroom two also has a fitted wardrobe with a set of modern sliding doors. It may be of interest to note that any / all items of furniture within this flat can be available as part of the sale by negotiation.
The property retains the electric under-floor heating system which has individual thermostats to rooms. Internal doors have been replaced with either white regency panel or glass panelled sets. Outside and set below the apartment is the property’s own double-sized (tandem style) garage with power and light installed and a roll-over-door – excellent storage space and can take two cars if needed. The aforementioned sun balcony, which is off the lounge / dining room, has iron railings and has been rather attractively dressed with astro-turf flooring – works really well.
The development is managed by the property management company Life Property Management of Glasgow, telephone 0844 822 6563 who look after the garden grounds, communal cleaning and common buildings’ insurance. The current charges are approximately £800 per annum. The block in which this flat is located has cavity wall insulation installed and its communal areas have been well maintained and carpeted. The development itself is particularly well looked after with the garden grounds being a real feature with expansive areas of lawn, lots of deciduous and specimen trees and of course the private loch which has a path around it and lovely little areas in which to sit. Parking provision is available for residents but of course this flat has its own double garage. In addition to the garage there is some hard standing in front of the garages that residents could park their cars upon. www.rettie.co.uk
