Property Description
Duplex Penthouse - 4 Bed / 3 Bath, 1500 sq ft
Rarely available within this highly regarded modern development, this exceptional four-bedroom upper duplex apartment combines substantial family-sized accommodation, striking contemporary architecture and an outstanding position at the edge of Finnieston. Enjoying a private south-facing balcony with spectacular views towards some of Glasgow's most recognisable landmarks, together with the significant advantage of a private allocated parking space within a secure residents' courtyard and recently installed German double glazing throughout, this is a particularly impressive home which is certain to attract a broad spectrum of buyers.
The development occupies an enviable position on the edge of Finnieston, one of Glasgow's most vibrant and desirable neighbourhoods. Renowned for its outstanding collection of independent restaurants, cafés, bars and boutiques, the area has become one of the city's foremost lifestyle destinations. The SEC campus, OVO Hydro, Armadillo and Exhibition Centre train station are all within a short walk, placing world-class entertainment, concerts, exhibitions and events quite literally on the doorstep. Kelvingrove Park, Glasgow University and the City Centre are equally accessible, making this an exceptionally convenient base for both work and leisure.
The property itself is formed over two levels and offers generous, thoughtfully designed accommodation extending to a substantial overall footprint. Upon entering, it is immediately apparent that this is no ordinary apartment. The principal living space is particularly impressive, centred around a magnificent double-height lounge with a vaulted ceiling and dramatic full-height windows which flood the room with natural light. The elevated outlook towards the Hydro, SEC and Glasgow skyline creates a wonderful focal point, while the scale and volume of the room provide a genuine sense of occasion and arrival. At night, the skyline becomes completely distracting – as the Hydro, Squinty Bridge, Finnieston Crane, Armadillo and the BBC studios burst into colourful lighting features of the landscape. Arguably one of the best panoramic outlooks in the development, the apartment offers its own front-row seat to the city skyline and live events at the Hydro.
The lounge flows naturally into the dining area, creating an ideal environment for modern living, entertaining and family life. The south-facing balcony extends directly from the living accommodation and provides a superb outdoor seating area from which to enjoy the panoramic outlook and sunshine throughout much of the day. The separate kitchen is of good proportions and features full compliment of integrated appliances & breakfast bar seating area for informal dining, breakfasting, coffees etc.
The bedroom accommodation is particularly impressive, comprising four well-proportioned bedrooms arranged over the two levels of the apartment, providing excellent flexibility for a variety of buyer requirements. Three of the bedrooms benefit from fitted wardrobes, ensuring excellent storage whilst maintaining clean, uncluttered living spaces. The principal bedroom enjoys the added luxury of an en-suite shower room, whilst the remaining bedrooms are served by a beautifully appointed main bathroom on the entrance level, and a further shower room which is off the upper landing. The generous scale and versatility of the accommodation make the property equally well suited to growing families, professional purchasers seeking additional home working space, or those simply looking for a substantial modern home in one of Glasgow's most desirable locations.
Given its location, the property is expected to prove particularly attractive to young professionals wishing to enjoy all that Finnieston and the West End have to offer, whilst the generous accommodation and proximity to excellent educational facilities, including the nearby Gaelic School and the University of Glasgow, will undoubtedly appeal to families and students alike.
Properties of this size and specification, with private outdoor space, secure parking and such impressive views, are seldom available within this sought-after pocket of Glasgow.
