Property Description

Situated on an extremely prominent site on the corner of Ford Road and Kirklee Road, this stunning upper conversion is in an incredibly sought after location and has the rare advantage of a totally private entrance.

Forming the first-floor section of a grand blonde sandstone villa, 1B Ford Road has private access to the side with double storm doors leading to a private lower hall. The broad and impressive stairway leads initially to the half landing where there is a quite magnificent, original stained/leaded window depicting a music and dancing scene. The stairway then continues to the main upper landing/reception hall and the bright spacious accommodation extends to lounge/dining room, fitted kitchen, three double bedrooms and a family bathroom.

The property has westerly aspects to the front and is south facing to the side. It is incredibly handy for the beautiful Botanic Gardens and is within easy reach of countless West End amenities, Byres Road, Glasgow University and public transport facilities. There are excellent local schools including the nearby Kelvinside Academy and local hospitals include Gartnavel General and Queen Elizabeth Hospital which is accessed via the Clyde Tunnel.
