Glen Craig Cottage is a charming bungalow of non-traditional construction just over two miles from the popular village of Langbank and only 3 miles from the popular settlement of Kilmacolm which lies on the north side of the beautiful Gryffe Valley and is renowned as one of the most affluent villages in Scotland with a population of around 4,500.
Langbank is a delightful village with a well-respected primary school and public transport via the railway station. The neighbouring countryside caters for a wide range of agriculture and forestry along with sporting/leisure activities including fishing, golf, shooting, sailing and all equestrian pursuits.
Kilmacolm takes its name from the dedication of its ancient church to St Columba of Iona, and has an excellent local primary school and nursery with St Columba’s Independent School having an enviable academic record and offers education from nursery school to secondary level. In the village there are pick-up points for many of Glasgow’s highly reputable private schools which include Glasgow and Kelvinside Academies, The High School of Glasgow, Hutcheson Grammar, St Aloysius and Craigholme School for Girls. These schools are acknowledged for their academic excellence, with further education available at top UK Universities at Glasgow University, Strathclyde University and Glasgow Caledonian University as well as a number of colleges.

Kilmacolm caters for all ages and has a broad range of social activities, often centred around the local golf, tennis, squash and bowling clubs. Glasgow International Airport is around 10 miles from the property and the M8 offers swift commuting links to the commercial centres of Central Scotland.
Glasgow City Centre, 20 miles to the east, has earned its reputation as one of the UK’s leading cities for retail space, offering a range of shopping centres including Braehead, Buchanan Galleries, Silverburn and the St Enoch Centre, to name but a few. Previously European City of Culture and European City of Architecture and Design, Glasgow, dubbed the ‘New York of the North’, is also rich in centres of cultural excellence including the newly refurbished Kelvingrove Art Gallery & Museum, the Transport Museum, the Glasgow Science Centre, the Royal Concert Hall, various theatres, the Burrell Collection within Pollok Country Park and many other places of interest.

Enjoying a rural position with commanding views over the surrounding countryside, Glen Craig is a beautifully presented bungalow of non-standard construction with an extensive area of garden with an additional area of amenity ground also available by separate negotiation.. Externally the property benefits from ample parking including a double garage and beautifully kept garden which is a combination of lawn and gravel.

Glen Craig Cottage itself benefits from a well proportioned garden ground as well as the purchaser having the ability to purchase an additional area of area of amenity land that lies directly to the north west of the property extending to 0.91 Ha (2.25 Acres). The land is currently all down to pasture and has been utilised for grazing and growing a selection of crops in the past. The land has been classified as Grade 4.1 by The James Hutton Institute and provides an excellent area of amenity land that would be perfectly suited to those who have an equine interest. The land is currently unfenced, however the vendor will contribute to the construction of the boundary fence and thereafter maintenance will be solely up to the new owner.
