Property Description

An utterly gorgeous and wonderfully individual one bedroom second floor apartment tucked away in a quiet situation within Garnethill. This charming home creates a unique atmosphere through a series of thoughtful improvements, lovely rustic details and serene outlooks in one of Glasgow’s most architecturally fascinating pockets.

The setting is genuinely special. Garnet Street sits within one of Garnethill’s most architecturally rich pockets, directly opposite The Scottish Jewish Heritage Centre, designed by John McLeod of Dumbarton and constructed around 1881. Elevated above the city, the street is known for its outstanding outlooks, with views reaching across the spires of the Park area and the University of Glasgow and the wider cityscape. This feeling of height, light and character continues inside the apartment, with the bedroom enjoying a lovely outlook over mature greenery towards the synagogue opposite.

The living room is a fabulous space, enhanced by a run of skylights, lower window projections and exposed timber beams, all of which create a relaxed, rustic and inviting aura. The lower window areas provide lovely spots for plants, books, ornaments or even a favoured canine or feline companion to sit and watch the world go by. The door to the living room is particularly characterful, a substantial timber ledge and brace style with traditional black ironmongery lending it a handsome medieval castle inspired quality.

The kitchen is open to the living space and has been fitted in a smart contemporary style complimenting a sleek metro tiling finish. A dedicated dining area sits naturally beside the kitchen, with a sensible flow making the main living space feel sociable and surprisingly versatile.

Steps lead down to the bedroom, which is one of the most captivating and imaginative parts of the apartment. The centrepiece being a bespoke hand crafted oak bunk bed, beautifully constructed to create a wonderfully cosy sleeping area below and an additional raised sleeping platform above. This clever arrangement gives the room a fantastic sense of depth and versatility, with the upper level offering further sleeping space or excellent storage potential, while the lower area feels warm and enclosed. Set beside the window, a beautifully arranged seating area creates one of the loveliest spots in the home, perfectly positioned to enjoy the leafy outlook across mature trees and admire the beautiful architecture of The Scottish Jewish Heritage Centre opposite. The bathroom has been refurbished and includes a deep plunge style bath, contemporary sanitary ware, a chrome towel radiator and attractive wall and floor finishes.

Garnethill is a quiet and predominantly residential district, increasingly recognised for its artistic, architectural and bohemian character. The area lies only a few minutes’ walk from Sauchiehall Street’s Avenue, which has undergone a significant transformation, and is exceptionally well placed for transport links via Charing Cross, St George’s Cross and Cowcaddens stations. The City Centre, Merchant City, International Financial Services District, Finnieston and the West End are all within easy reach, offering an outstanding selection of amenities including independent cafés, boutique shopping, wine bars and acclaimed restaurants. Garnet Street is also ideally positioned for access to several leading educational institutions, including The Glasgow School of Art, the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, the University of Glasgow, the University of Strathclyde and Glasgow Caledonian University, as well as St Aloysius’ College.

Altogether, this is a genuinely special one bedroom apartment which offers far more personality, character and visual interest than is typically found in a property of this nature. The combination of its elevated Garnethill setting, beautiful outlooks, imaginative interior, refurbished windows, and wonderfully distinctive features makes it a highly appealing home for young professionals, students, first time buyers and those seeking a creative city base within easy reach of both the City Centre and the West End.
