Flat 2 (1st & 2nd Floor), 188 West Regent Street, Blythswood Hill, Glasgow City, G2 4RU
Property Description
Located in the historic Blythswood Hill district of Glasgow City Centre, this unique, four-bedroom, upper duplex conversion, extends to a very generous 1895 sq ft. Situated over the first and second floor of a beautiful blonde sandstone townhouse, the property has dual aspects facing south and west over West Regent Street and Blythswood Street and commands exceptional views over Blythswood Square and the attractive gardens. The B listed townhouse was converted in 2007 forming two separate duplex apartments and is exceptionally well placed for a variety of local amenities including excellent transport links, café’s, bars, shops, and restaurants.
Currently holding a ‘Short Term Let Licence’ through GCC, the apartment has had excellent occupancy rates during the times it has been available for guests, and lends itself well to a similar endeavour, however, would equally suit full time residency as a bespoke and unique city dwelling. Please ask for details on the lower duplex if you may be interested in the opportunity to purchase the full townhouse.
