Property Description
Occupying a particularly peaceful position within one of Dowanhill's most admired addresses, this attractive two-bedroom upper conversion offers bright, spacious accommodation within a handsome blonde sandstone townhouse. Enjoying lovely leafy outlooks to the front, access to beautifully maintained residents' pleasure gardens and a shared garden to the rear of the building, together with immediate proximity to Byres Road at the heart of Glasgow's West End, this is a superb home which will appeal to a broad spectrum of buyers.
Huntly Gardens is widely regarded as one of the more desirable addresses in the West End and occupies an enviable position within Dowanhill, often described as the village at the edge of Byres Road. Characterised by elegant sandstone architecture, mature trees and remarkably peaceful surroundings, the area continues to attract professionals, academics, mature students and downsizers who appreciate the balance of tranquillity and convenience. Residents enjoy privileged access to the wonderfully maintained central pleasure gardens, which provide a beautiful green retreat in the heart of the city and are considered amongst the finest residents' gardens in the West End.
Despite its peaceful setting, the property is just moments from the vibrant atmosphere of Byres Road, where an outstanding selection of cafés, restaurants, bars, boutiques and everyday amenities can be found. The Botanic Gardens, University of Glasgow and Hillhead Underground Station are all within easy walking distance, ensuring effortless access to both the West End and Glasgow City Centre.
The property is accessed via a well-kept communal entrance and opens into a welcoming L-shaped reception hallway which flows beautifully through the accommodation and provides access to two exceptionally useful storage cupboards. The principal living space is a particularly impressive front-facing lounge of generous proportions, with ample space for both living and dining furniture. Large windows frame attractive views over the mature trees and greenery which define this particularly leafy section of Dowanhill, creating a calm and appealing backdrop throughout the year.
To the rear, the dining-sized kitchen offers excellent functionality, incorporating extensive in-built cupboard space together with ample room for a table and chairs. The principal bedroom is of exceptional proportions and provides abundant space for a king-sized bed, freestanding wardrobes, dressers and even a home working area if required.
Positioned to the rear of the building, the room enjoys a quiet outlook towards the rear elevation of Belhaven Terrace. The second bedroom is a comfortable double room which benefits from excellent natural light thanks to its south-facing aspect.
The accommodation is completed by a well-appointed bathroom featuring attractive tiling, a white four-piece suite and a shower positioned over the bath. Combining generous room proportions, charming leafy outlooks and one of the finest addresses in the West End, this is an excellent opportunity to acquire a substantial conversion within a highly sought-after Dowanhill setting.
