This is a fine three bedroomed end of terraced home with a side entrance and an exceptionally large privately enclosed rear garden. The development of Greenhills on the South Douglas Road withing walking distance of the city centre was built in 1978 and was ahead of its time. It offered a range of house types from mid terraced to end of terraced as well as semi detached homes.

The property has been well minded by the current owner and its accommodation spread over two levels extends to approx. 910 sq. ft. (84.54 sq. mt).
