Property Description
Occupying a prominent first-floor position within a handsome blonde sandstone tenement at the corner of Fergus Drive and Oban Drive, this particularly spacious two-bedroom apartment enjoys impressive open aspects and a wonderful sense of light from twin bay windows. Extending to over 1,000 sq ft, the property offers substantial accommodation and presents an excellent opportunity to acquire a characterful West End home in the heart of North Kelvinside.
Fergus Drive is regarded as one of North Kelvinside's most attractive addresses, known for its handsome tenement architecture, peaceful atmosphere and mature, leafy surroundings. Properties within this section of the street are especially sought-after due to their privacy and tranquillity. The location could hardly be more convenient. Queen Margaret Drive, with its excellent collection of independent cafés, restaurants, delicatessens and local businesses, is just a short walk away, while Glasgow Botanic Gardens and Byres Road can both be reached on foot in a matter of minutes. The University of Glasgow is also within easy walking and cycling distance, making this an ideal base for students, academics and professionals alike.
The building is entered via a secure door that gives access into a well-maintained communal hall and stairway. The apartment itself opens into a broad reception hall which provides access to all principal apartments and immediately highlights the generous proportions found throughout.
The magnificent main lounge is positioned on the corner of the building and features a large corner bow window with attractive open views. Measuring in excess of 23 feet in length, this is an impressive public room with ample space which is flooded with natural light from the grand window and has a beautiful fireplace which creates a lovely focal point. The dining kitchen is similarly bright and spacious, featuring fitted units, appliances and a broad dining recess providing plenty of space for dining and entertaining.
There are two well-proportioned double bedrooms, including an outstanding principal bedroom with bay window and excellent floor space for freestanding furniture. Bedroom two is another generous double room. A well-appointed bathroom with white suite and shower over bath completes the accommodation.
The property further benefits from gas central heating, double glazing and a highly desirable position within one of Glasgow's most sought-after residential districts.
To the rear of the building there is a well-maintained resident’s garden with neat lawn, purpose-built refuse stores and bike racks – all kept prim and proper by the appointed factor.
