January can be a tough time for many as the cold takes hold, pay day seems forever away and people generally suffer from a bout of the festive blues.
It can be a long month, devoid of any vibrancy, and one that already, some can’t wait to put behind them and move on to February.
So, if that’s you, how about a bit of colour?
This week’s feature property is this one-of-a-kind, quirky home on Janetta Street, a highly sought area of Clydebank and one that rarely appears on the local housing market.
A semi-detached bungalow with space for four bedrooms, the home was substantially upgraded in 2023 and includes highlights such as the contemporary anthracite double-glazed windows and doors, an upgraded central heating system, a new bathroom as well as a fresh, integrated kitchen.
And all this wrapped up with elegant décor and flooring throughout. The cherry on top, shall we say.
The entrance door opens to the immediately impressive central hallway where herringbone-style flooring leads throughout the ground-floor apartments.
A generous lounge is a naturally bright room located at the front, with a pleasant outlook over playing fields from the bay window.
Off the lounge, the newly installed kitchen has an integrated oven, hob and hood, fridge/freezer and a stylish breakfast bar. A door from here leads to the attractive rear garden.
Also on the ground floor, are two elegantly finished double bedrooms, with bedroom four currently used as a dining room.
The superb three-piece bathroom has Victorian-style floor tiling and features a painted vanity sink unit and a mains pressure thermostatic shower.
A turning staircase in the hall accesses the upper level, where there are two more double rooms.
Bedroom one is exceptionally spacious and benefits from wardrobe storage, elevated outlooks and subtle recessed downlighting.
The second bedroom up here has a study recess at the front window and a Velux window at the rear.
Outside, the front garden is mainly established shrubbery with hedging on the borders and a paved path leading from the driveway to the front door. At the rear, there is a level patio area which leads to the terraced lawn garden which has mature foliage on the borders.
The gas central heating system is powered by a Worcester combination boiler and benefits from new piping and radiators throughout alongside newly installed anthracite uPVC double glazing and external doors. Plenty to keep you toasty next January.
As mentioned, the property enjoys an extremely convenient location, just a short walk from schooling and all amenities on offer in Clydebank.
A frequent bus service operates in the area and both Singer and Dalmuir train stations are nearby.
The bungalow is also just a short drive from Great Western Road which provides easy access to Glasgow, the Erskine Bridge and M8 motorway network.
The home is on the market for offers over £239,000 and is being sold by the team at McHugh Estate Agents at Hardgate Cross.
