Property Description

Situated within one of the West End’s most desirable addresses, this exceptional two-bedroom lower ground floor conversion offers beautifully appointed, spacious accommodation with the significant advantages of main door access and a substantial private rear garden — features which are seldom available in Dowanhill.

Athole Gardens is a superb address in the extremely sought-after West End district of Dowanhill. For those not familiar with the area, it is home to some of the finest traditional homes in Glasgow and is known by residents as “the leafy village,” just off Byres Road. Private and extremely pretty, the streets of Dowanhill are lined with mature trees, and some addresses are fortunate enough to enjoy access to beautiful central gardens. This is an incredibly tranquil neighbourhood, yet all the amenities of Byres Road are within immediate reach. As such, this location appeals to everyone from students and academics seeking proximity to the University, to professional couples and downsizers. Athole Gardens is particularly special, as you will quickly appreciate during a viewing.

The property for sale enjoys a particularly private lower ground floor position at the foot of Athole Gardens and benefits from its own main door entrance, providing a heightened sense of independence and convenience that is seldom found within traditional West End conversions. To the rear, the generous private garden is a standout feature: a true sanctuary that invites morning coffee outdoors, summer dining with friends, or quiet evenings surrounded by greenery.. In addition the property has access to Athole Gardens, a immense pleasure gardens directly across from the flat.

Internally, this is a highly attractive and versatile home with generous proportions throughout. As you will see from the attached photographs and HD video, the property combines charming traditional features with a stylish, modern specification.

In brief, the accommodation extends to a very broad and welcoming reception hall which is of such comfortable scale that it can easily accommodate a dedicated home office area with shelving, or alternatively be utilised as a dining hall if desired. The beautiful bay-window living room is of superb proportions and features a wood-burning stove — a particularly desirable feature that creates a wonderful focal point and cosy atmosphere.

The living space flows through into a stunning semi open-plan kitchen, complete with a substantial central island and a full complement of integrated appliances including a range-style cooker and dishwasher — perfectly suited to modern living and entertaining. Just off the kitchen is a stylish, modern wet room, offering added convenience for guests and enhancing the home’s practical, flexible layout.
From the kitchen, a door leads directly to the private garden, creating superb indoor outdoor connectivity and further enhancing the sense of space and freedom.
There are two comfortable double bedrooms, each with a peaceful ambience. The principal bedroom is notably spacious, offering excellent fitted or freestanding furniture options and benefiting from its own en suite shower room. The second bedroom is equally flexible — currently used as a home office with a fold down futon, it effortlessly adapts to guest accommodation or creative workspace.
Overall, this is a remarkable home that combines the best of West End living: style, space, tranquillity, character, and exceptional outdoor access. Properties offering this level of privacy and lifestyle appeal in such a prime location are incredibly rare — making this a truly special opportunity.
