Property Description
Blairbeth Drive is an absolutely stunning four bedroom semi-detached home set within one of the most admired residential addresses in the ever popular Mount Florida area. Dating from around 1910, this impressive four-bedroom home is a wonderful example of the character and craftsmanship associated with the Arts and Crafts era. Rich in period detail and offering exceptionally versatile family accommodation, the property combines elegant traditional proportions with the practical requirements of modern living. The wonderful home, situated within a leafy enclave, is influenced by Arts and Crafts and Garden Suburb principles common in the south-side of Glasgow at the time.
The stunning features are immediately evident from the external porchway which leads through to internal vestibule. The welcoming broad wood panelled reception hallway with impressive stained glass windows sets the tone for the accommodation beyond, where a wealth of original features creates warmth and character throughout. The formal sitting room provides a magnificent principal reception space, ideal for both entertaining and everyday family life, while the separate formal dining room offers an elegant setting for dinner parties and special occasions (both rooms resplendent with period features, fireplaces, original solid wood doors and original ironmongery).
To the rear, the home opens into a bright and inviting sunroom, creating a seamless connection with the garden and offering a tranquil space to relax throughout the seasons. At the heart of the home is a generously proportioned dining kitchen, thoughtfully designed with a good range of floor and wall mounted cabinets. A separate utility room provides valuable ancillary space and additional access to the back garden, while a ground floor WC with shower enhances the flexibility of the accommodation.
Flowing up the traditional staircase, the upper upper-level hosts four well-proportioned bedrooms, all enjoying excellent natural light and generous proportions. A beautifully appointed family three-piece bathroom complete with bath serves the accommodation, complementing the practical layout that makes this such an outstanding family home. Of particular note is the main principal room on the first floor (currently being used as an additional sitting room and study) which features a fireplace with original inset artwork; a stunning example of a very rare period piece.
There is a large floored attic space which could be further developed if desired, subject to planning permission.
Externally, the property continues to impress. Mature gardens provide a wonderful setting with ample space for recreation, entertaining and gardening enthusiasts. A large detached garage offers excellent storage, workshop potential or secure parking and rear access further enhancing the appeal of this remarkable home.
Combining timeless architectural charm this substantial family accommodation and an enviable Mount Florida setting, Blairbeth Drive represents a rare opportunity to acquire a distinguished period home in one of Glasgow's most sought-after south-side neighbourhoods.
Blairbeth Drive is situated in close proximity to a number of local amenities and transport links. These include varied independent shops, and popular cafes and restaurants. It is a short distance from Mount Florida train station with numerous bus routes nearby.
Situated a short drive from Glasgow City Centre, Blairbeth Drive is in a great spot for an easy commute into the city centre/motorway. We expect this property to be popular and would advise early viewing to avoid disappointment.
