Property Description

Occupying a particularly interesting corner position at the junction of Lowther Terrace and Kirklee Road, this highly individual, main door entry, three-bedroom duplex home offers an exceptional combination of beautifully finished accommodation, leafy outlooks and private outdoor space in one of the West End's most desirable residential locations.

The property enjoys an enviable setting in Kelvinside, close to the rear entrance of the Botanic Gardens and within comfortable walking distance of Byres Road, Glasgow University and the excellent selection of shops, cafés, restaurants and amenities for which the West End is renowned. Its elevated corner position is particularly appealing, providing attractive open aspects across the surrounding mature trees and handsome architecture towards Kirklee Terrace, Belhaven Terrace and Dowanhill.

Internally, the property has been comprehensively upgraded and thoughtfully designed, with an impressive standard of specification evident throughout. Modern sound suppressing, aluminium framed double-glazed windows and external doors have been installed, contributing considerably to the peaceful atmosphere within, whilst the carefully considered interior combines contemporary styling with excellent practicality.

The accommodation is arranged over two levels and extends to approximately 1,200 sq. ft. On the entrance level are three particularly well-proportioned bedrooms together with two shower rooms, including an en-suite to the principal bedroom.

The principal bedroom is an outstanding apartment, extending to over 20 ft in length and benefiting considerably from the property's corner position and extensive windows. Beautifully presented in a calm, muted palette, the room incorporates a striking floral mural and extensive bespoke carpenter-built wardrobes. The adjoining en-suite shower room has been cleverly extended and finished to an excellent standard, creating a particularly comfortable principal suite.

Bedroom two is another generous double room with plenty of space for additional furniture or a home-working arrangement if required. With brand new fitted wardrobes from Sharps and a charming aspect toward Kirklee Terrace – it is as luxurious as it is comfortable. Bedroom three, presently arranged as a dressing room, is also comfortably proportioned as a double bedroom, providing useful flexibility for purchasers whose requirements may change over time.

Storage has been particularly well considered throughout the property, including beautifully integrated bespoke cabinetry and drawers beneath the staircase, making effective use of an area which might otherwise have been lost.

The upper floor provides the property's superb principal living accommodation. Here, a bright lounge sits alongside a substantial dining kitchen, together creating a highly sociable and flexible space which is equally well suited to day-to-day living and entertaining.

Accessed via a hatch above the landing leading into the open-plan living accommodation is a useful loft space, measuring approximately 1.1m x 3m. A retractable stepped ladder provides access, while the loft offers full standing height, providing valuable additional storage.

The kitchen itself is a particular highlight. Designed by Kitchen Boutique and fitted with Caesarstone work surfaces, it features an excellent range of contemporary cabinetry together with a central island and carefully considered lighting. Lightened oak flooring extends through the living space, introducing warmth and complementing the clean, contemporary finish.

Perhaps the most memorable aspect of the upper floor is its connection with the private outdoor terrace. Modern patio doors open directly from the living space onto a substantial terrace of approximately 170 sq. ft., creating an excellent relationship between the internal and external accommodation. Particularly unusual for a West End home of this nature, the terrace provides valuable private outdoor space and becomes an extension of the living accommodation during suitable weather.

The result is a tremendously distinctive home which has clearly been improved with considerable attention to detail. The combination of three bedrooms, outstanding upper-level living accommodation, private terrace, high-quality specification and superb Kelvinside position makes this a particularly rare proposition.

For buyers searching for something individual in Glasgow's West End, while avoiding the need to undertake further modernisation or refurbishment, 1 Lowther Terrace offers an exceptionally complete and immediately enjoyable home.
