Property Description
A beautifully presented one-bedroom second floor flat enjoying a peaceful position within a traditional red sandstone tenement in the heart of Cathcart.
Combining a wealth of original character with tasteful modern upgrades, this home enjoys bright and airy accommodation together with attractive open outlooks towards the old Holmlea School gardens and the White Cart Water.
Accessed via secure door entry into a well-maintained communal close with original tiled detailing, the accommodation begins with a welcoming entrance vestibule. This charming space retains original mosaic floor tiles, storm doors and a beautiful original stained-glass door, reflecting the property's period character. A reception hallway provides access to all apartments and benefits from a useful laundry cupboard and additional storage.
The impressive bay-windowed lounge, kitchen and dining space forms the heart of the home, creating a bright and sociable living environment with open views and an abundance of natural light. The room offers ample space for both relaxing and dining, while the modern fitted kitchen is thoughtfully integrated into the layout.

The property retains a number of attractive period features including original cornicing, coving and skirtings, while modern comforts include double glazed windows installed in 2020 and a gas central heating system with boiler replaced in 2021. The building itself has also benefited from a replacement roof in recent years, providing additional peace of mind for prospective purchasers. Residents also enjoy access to a communal rear garden.
