The former Gadburn Primary schoolhouse - a three-bedroom 1980s detached bungalow with front and rear gardens - will be under Wheatley Homes Glasgow Limited. Glasgow City Council say the building was declared "surplus, and its disposal is in line with the council’s housing policy objectives". It will generate a capital receipt for the local authority after negotiations are concluded.
It was subsequently absorbed into the land surrounding the property after the current owner purchased the home over 20 years ago. The council said there appeared to be "no defining boundary between the subject and adjoining garden of 8 Prospecthill Road, leading the owner to assume this land was part of the curtilage of their property."
