Property Description
Famous for the vibrant fusion of culture, dining, and recreation, Finnieston has become synonymous with a lively mixture of “independently owned gems” and this lovely one bedroom apartment presents a brilliant opportunity to take advantage of one of the City’s most sought after neighbourhoods.
This stylish apartment enjoys a superb outlook from a second floor position across Argyle Street towards Kent Road and Brechin Street, with Kelvingrove Park and The University of Glasgow situated just a short walk away.
The highlight of the property is the cosy front lounge, brightened by two front facing windows and proportioned to accommodate both living and dining, with the kitchen positioned close by to create a simple and sensical flow to suit day to day living. The remainder of the property consists of a double bedroom, a decent distance from the social spaces, and a three piece shower room. The communal areas are well presented and benefit from freshly maintained hallways, with a clean and welcoming close on arrival that reflects a reassuring sense of pride in ownership and thoughtful ongoing upkeep.
The apartment forms part of the distinctive curved “gushet” tenement on the corner of Argyle Street and Minerva Street; a handsome landmark within Finnieston’s historic streetscape. Dating from around 1856 and thought to have been formerly known as Napier Place, the building is immediately striking thanks to its imposing classical facade, arched openings at street level and grand Corinthian pilasters that emphasise the buildings presence and complement the gentle sweep of Minerva Street.
Finnieston is exceptionally well placed for swift access into the City Centre, while the M8 and Clydeside Expressway are close at hand for commuters and those travelling further afield. The SEC and Exhibition Centre sit within easy reach, with Exhibition Centre train station providing convenient rail links across the city, while Kelvingrove Park is also nearby for green space. An immense selection of cafés, bars, restaurants and artisanal food spots are on hand along Argyle Street and throughout the surrounding West End, ensuring everything from everyday essentials to weekend favourites are right on your doorstep.
