RAIGLAMONT 44 Heather Avenue, Bearsden

LED low voltage lights are featured throughout most rooms/areas (except lounge) and the kitchen has under counter LED lights, adding to the modern mood of the house. A key asset of the property is its location in Mosshead, its proximity to the excellent Mosshead Primary and the super facilities of Bearsden Academy and its setting with the fantastic outlook to the front over the park a fantastic expanse to have, literally, on your doorstep for children and giving a real sense of being away from it all.
