Property Description

A fabulous two bedroom apartment occupying a preferred first floor position within a traditional townhouse conversion, set on Dowanside Road’s elegant sweeping lower crescent, just moments from Byres Road and the University of Glasgow.

The accommodation presents a superb opportunity to acquire a West End home of real character in a prominent setting. Notable highlights include impressive ceiling height, beautifully retained period cornicing, and a grand bay windowed lounge that enjoys a bright southerly aspect with an open outlook towards Byres Road and the nearby Dowanhill Tennis Club. The principal living space is both elegant and adaptable, comfortably accommodating a variety of configurations for relaxed day to day living, while also lending itself effortlessly to hosting and entertaining. The fitted kitchen is particularly fetching, with understated soft grey in-frame cabinetry finished with classic cup pulls, all complemented by butcher block worktops and warm timber flooring to create a lovely dual tone scheme.

The principal bedroom enjoys calm views from a broad three section window, and excellent integrated wardrobe storage and access to an invaluable “attic” storage space above the second bedroom. The second bedroom offers ideal flexibility as a guest room, home office or dedicated gym/hobby space. The shower room is instantaneously impressive, finished in crisp white tiling with a contemporary suite accented by traditional fittings, and a generous shower enclosure.

Dowanhill is renowned as one of the most coveted districts of Glasgow, adorned with an array of gorgeous architectural marvels, the area relishes its serene setting and astounds with its surprising convenience. The University of Glasgow is merely a “stone’s throw” from the foot of Dowanside Road, with leading independent schools including The Glasgow Academy and Kelvinside Academy a short commutable distance. Access to the Botanic Gardens and Kelvingrove Park is straightforward, with the tremendous excitement of Byres Road and Ashton Lane just around the corner. As such, this outstanding first floor home will prove a compelling proposition for professionals and those associated with the University, as well as discerning buyers seeking peaceful living at the very heart of Glasgow’s West End.
