This prime location places the property within walking distance of all the amenities on Byres Road and the Botanics area along Great Western Road. Within minutes of leaving the property, you can access everything from supermarkets, shops, and boutiques to public transport links, cafes, and bars. The West End offers a variety of leisure facilities, including cinema, racquet clubs, the Western Baths, and The Gym Group (on Vinicombe Street). Hillhead is also ideally positioned for easy access to inner-city green spaces, including the Botanical Gardens and Kelvingrove Park, both offering extensive parkland to be enjoyed year-round. This property is in a permit parking zone (W3), with permits available from the local council, allowing two permits per residence.
The home for sale is held within a striking blonde sandstone townhouse, accessed via a secure entrance with intercom system. Entry is gained into a particularly impressive communal hall and stairway, finished in bold indigo tones and complemented by high-quality carpeting, creating a memorable first impression. A beautiful staircase rises to the top floor, where a large roof-level skylight floods the landing with natural light—providing a bright and welcoming arrival to the property. From the rear of the ground floor hall, a staircase leads down to basement level, where residents can access the shared rear garden. The garden is laid to lawn, enjoys a desirable west-facing orientation, and benefits from excellent afternoon and evening sunshine.
Internally, this is a bright and generously proportioned apartment, extending to approximately 108 square metres—slightly larger than the properties on the levels below. The interior is presented in excellent condition throughout, offering a comfortable and highly functional living environment with a natural flow between apartments.
In brief, the accommodation comprises: a welcoming entrance hall which provides access to all principal apartments and features a particularly useful open section near the rear bedrooms—ideal for use as a home working area or additional storage for coats and furnishings. The main living space is an impressive open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area, perfectly suited to modern lifestyles and entertaining.
The principal bedroom is of excellent proportions and benefits from a well-appointed en-suite shower room, complete with a white suite and double-sized shower enclosure.
