Property Description
A rarely available and substantial four-bedroom end-terrace sandstone fronted villa, set within a broad corner plot and located within the highly sought-after Scotstoun conservation area—offering beautifully extended family accommodation, private driveway, detached garage and enclosed, south-facing gardens.
119 Danes Drive enjoys a superb position within one of the West End’s most desirable residential pockets, recently recognised among the top ten places to live in Scotland by The Times. The property lies within the catchment for both Scotstoun Primary and Jordanhill Primary, as well as Jordanhill Secondary—an exceptional combination for families seeking access to some of the country’s most highly regarded schooling. Scotstoun Primary itself has recently been ranked among the top performing schools in Scotland (7th according to Sunday Times report), further enhancing the appeal of this already outstanding address. Victoria Park is just along the road, while the home of the Glasgow Warriors sits adjacent—adding to the vibrant yet community-focused feel of the area.
The home itself occupies an enviable corner position, affording generous, fully enclosed south-facing garden grounds which have been carefully landscaped to create a highly usable and attractive outdoor environment. A combination of sandstone paving, astro grass, decorative chips and cobbled pathways are complemented by neatly planted beds and potted arrangements—resulting in a space that is both low maintenance and ideal for family life and entertaining. In addition, the property benefits from a private driveway with space for two vehicles and a substantial detached garage.
Internally, this is a home of notable character and impressive scale. The accommodation begins with a charming entrance porch, complete with traditional twin timber storm doors and beautifully preserved Minton tiled flooring. A glazed inner door opens into a welcoming reception hallway, where a striking staircase leads to the upper levels and access is provided to all principal apartments.
The main living room is an elegant space, featuring a bay window to the front alongside a gable-end picture window, allowing for exceptional levels of natural light – especially in the earlier part of the day. Original features including stripped and stained timber floorboards, a pine fireplace with arched cast iron insert and living flame fire, column radiator and an attractive built-in dresser combine to create a room of real warmth and character—perfectly befitting a home of this calibre. A second public room, currently utilised as a sitting room and home office, offers excellent flexibility and also retains a shallow bay window and original in-built dresser with glazed upper cabinets—ideal for modern family living and offering a versatile space that could be a second tv room, play room or dedicated work from home environment.
Undoubtedly the heart of the home is the impressive dining kitchen, finished with elegant dove grey cabinetry, hammered pewter handles, a full complement of appliances and contrasting oak butcher block work surfaces. This space flows seamlessly into the side-positioned garden room/conservatory, with a trio of connecting doorways allowing for a wonderful sense of openness. When combined with direct access to the garden, this arrangement of living space creates an exceptional entertaining environment—perfect for family gatherings, celebrations and summer occasions. The garden room further benefits from a concealed utility/pantry area, enhancing everyday practicality. A convenient guest W.C., neatly positioned beneath the staircase, completes the ground floor accommodation.
The staircase rises to a half landing, where the fourth bedroom is located—a comfortable double room overlooking the rear garden with in-built storage. The main bathroom is also positioned at this level and features a well-appointed white four-piece suite. Continuing to the upper level, three further bedrooms are found. The principal bedroom is particularly impressive, mirroring the grandeur of the main lounge with a bay window and additional gable-end window offering open views along Danes Drive. Bedroom two is a bright, south-facing double, while the third bedroom is a generous single which can accommodate a double bed if required.
Combining substantial, beautifully presented accommodation with outstanding outdoor space, excellent school catchments and a position within one of Scotland’s most desirable conservation areas, this exceptional home represents a rare opportunity for growing families seeking both quality and longevity in their next purchase.
