Property Description
A beautiful and exceptionally spacious four-bedroom second-floor tenement apartment, offering magnificent proportions, an abundance of traditional character and a highly desirable position in Hyndland, at the entrance to Dowanhill.
With its superb floor area, beautiful period features and remarkably versatile accommodation, this is a particularly impressive West End home. Given its proximity to highly regarded local primary and secondary schools, the property is certain to appeal to growing families seeking more space, whilst its generous proportions and flexible layout will be equally attractive to professional couples who simply want larger, more comfortable accommodation.
The property immediately makes an impression upon entering. Beyond the porch, a beautifully proportioned reception hall provides a particularly elegant welcome and instantly alludes to the grandeur and scale of this magnificent traditional tenement.
The corner-positioned living room is one of the outstanding features of the accommodation. A substantial five-section bow window provides charming open aspects along Hyndland Road and fills the room with natural light. Traditional sash and casement windows retain the character and appearance of the room, whilst a modern wood-burning stove is set within a stunning fire surround with slate hearth. Despite its impressive proportions, the room feels extremely comfortable and inviting, making it a wonderful place to spend an evening watching television or simply sitting and chatting. Push the chairs back, however, and there is also a brilliant space for a party.
The original dining room is equally impressive and is an apartment of real character and majesty. A beautiful four-section bay window with coloured glass is complemented by attractive ceiling plasterwork and a further central fireplace. Currently providing a superb formal dining room, its proportions and position make it highly versatile, and some buyers may instead choose to use this as a particularly luxurious bedroom.
The dining kitchen is presented in superb condition and provides another excellent everyday living space. Modern Shaker-style cabinetry in dove grey is paired with contrasting polished granite work surfaces and an eye-catching brick-effect splashback, whilst fitted appliances include a stainless-steel range with seven-ring hob. There is plenty of space for a substantial dining table and chairs, making this a natural gathering point for family life or entertaining.
Importantly, the kitchen retains much of the character expected of a traditional property of this calibre. The original recessed area remains and is currently used to house the fridge-freezer, whilst the original range remains intact and has been cleverly incorporated into the room, providing the perfect spot for an air fryer and coffee station.
The current principal bedroom is again of comfortable proportions, measuring just over 4.6m x 4.2m, and has the additional advantage of an en-suite WC positioned discreetly within one corner.
Bedrooms two and three overlook Crown Road North and are both comfortable double rooms, with ample space for free-standing wardrobes, drawer units and other bedroom furniture. Together with the original dining room, the arrangement provides four-bedroom accommodation whilst retaining considerable flexibility for buyers who may prefer a formal dining room, second sitting room or dedicated home office.
Completing the accommodation is the main bathroom, which is finished with elegant grey stone-effect tiling and a white suite including a shower over the bath. An oversized chrome towel rail provides additional heat and completes the clean, contemporary finish.
The location is, of course, another major attraction. Positioned in Hyndland at the entrance to Dowanhill, the property is exceptionally well placed for the cafés, restaurants, independent shops and everyday amenities for which this part of Glasgow's West End is so highly regarded. The surrounding area is also particularly popular with families, thanks to its proximity to highly regarded primary and secondary schooling.
Ultimately, it is the combination of scale, character and flexibility that makes this such an appealing home. Magnificent traditional rooms, beautiful windows, fireplaces and plasterwork sit comfortably alongside the modernised kitchen and bathroom, creating a substantial West End property that retains the atmosphere and grandeur expected of a fine traditional tenement.
For a growing family looking for a long-term home, or a professional couple simply wanting considerably more space, this is a particularly attractive proposition.
