Property Description
Offering extremely spacious, luxurious accommodation within a popular and peaceful residential pocket in the West End of Glasgow, this professionally upgraded four-bedroom traditional tenement apartment benefits from an enviable corner position. It provides substantial, versatile accommodation that will appeal to professional couples and growing West End families who wish to take full advantage of highly regarded local schools.
Wilton Street is an extremely sought-after address in the West End district of North Kelvinside. Known for its attractive collection of particularly large tenements, this address is conveniently located for access to all West End amenities. The property's front door is just a short walk from the Kelvinbridge section of Great Western Road, placing the Underground station and bus routes within minutes of walking distance. Glasgow University lies within 0.6 miles of the property, making it especially appealing to academics working at this renowned institution. Other West End landmarks—including the Botanic Gardens, Byres Road, Ashton Lane, and Finnieston—are also within walking distance, making this a superb base for anyone wishing to enjoy all the West End has to offer, while enjoying a highly spacious and tranquil traditional residence.
The home is located within a handsome red sandstone tenement that is maintained to an excellent standard by the appointed factor. As such, the building is in superb condition, with a neat entrance area, secure main door with buzzer system, and clean, well-lit communal spaces (lighting remains on 24/7 throughout the winter for ease of access and egress). The rear of the building features beautiful residents' gardens that must be seen during a viewing to be fully appreciated. In essence, the gardens of several adjoining tenements have been combined to form a charming open courtyard space, featuring lawns, paved patios, mature planting, and even a children’s play area with a treehouse and chute. The apartment benefits from a delightful second-floor corner position and is accessed via the right-hand doorway on the first landing.
As seen in the attached photographs, video, and Matterport tour, this stunning traditional home has been sympathetically upgraded and refined to offer luxurious, substantial family living quarters. The interiors boast a tasteful blend of traditional features and contemporary fixtures and fittings, creating an extremely comfortable living environment. Over the past ten years, the current owners have carefully enhanced every element of the property—reconfiguring the layout and improving fundamental elements, including the installation of high-quality UPVC sash and casement windows that enhance comfort while preserving period charm. A comprehensive rewiring and replumbing project were also completed, and the smoke and heat detector systems have been modernised.
Upon entering the impressively broad reception hall which has a handy cloaks cupboard, one immediately appreciates the generous proportions of the property, which extends to approximately 1,700 square feet of internal living space. The living room is particularly spacious, featuring an original fireplace with a living flame gas insert and a broad oriel window that offers scenic views toward the leafiest section of Wilton Street.
The kitchen has been relocated from the rear elevation into the original bay-windowed dining room, where it fits seamlessly—as though it were always intended to be there. Shaker-style cabinetry with integrated Siemens appliances has been tastefully installed, and a stunning peninsula island with a marble work surface and induction hob serves as a centrepiece. The island faces a spacious dining area with another original fireplace (also with a gas living flame insert), while the bay window provides an inviting seating area—perfect for unwinding with a book and a refreshment in the evening. The substantial nature of this beautiful central room is absolutely perfect for hosting guests or dining together as a family.
The principal bedroom is beautifully proportioned, comfortably accommodating a king-sized bed and built-in wardrobe, and features a charming original fireplace with striking green tiling. This room benefits from a high-specification en-suite shower room, finished with Porcelanosa tiling and an elegant contemporary white suite. (There is also access to a loft space above the en-suite door.)
Bedrooms two and three are both generous king-sized rooms—ideal for a growing family. (Bedroom three is currently used as a home office.) The fourth bedroom is a highly versatile space that has been cleverly formed by the current owners as a studio bedroom/utility space, offering extremely practical additional accommodation. This unique room features shaker-style storage units and a full utility area, neatly integrated into the original bed recess.
The main bathroom is of excellent proportions and has been refitted to a very high standard, complete with a contemporary white suite, shower over bath, and Porcelanosa tiling.
