Description

DJ Alexander is delighted to bring to market this well-proportioned second-floor flat, forming part of a handsome traditional tenement block. Situated just off Byres Road, one of the city’s most iconic and desirable streets, this property is in the bustling heart of Glasgow’s West End.

Occupying a commanding position within a distinguished 1930s tenement building, this exquisite second-floor apartment seamlessly blends timeless elegance with modern comfort, offering a rare opportunity to own a spacious and versatile home in the heart of Glasgow’s desirable West End.

The internal accommodation is accessed via a welcoming, L-shaped hallway which immediately sets the tone for the property, featuring generous built-in storage and a convenient separate utility room. At the heart of the home lies a truly impressive living room, rich in classic charm and character. This grand space is enhanced by beautifully retained period features and flooded with natural light from magnificent front-facing bay windows, creating a bright and refined atmosphere.

The fully fitted kitchen has been thoughtfully designed to combine traditional style with contemporary functionality. Offering ample cabinetry, modern appliances (as seen), and space for casual or formal dining, it serves as a delightful hub for everyday living.

Currently configured with three generously proportioned bedrooms, each offers excellent space for free-standing furnishings. The third bedroom, slightly smaller in size, presents an ideal option for a home office, study, or dressing room—highlighting the exceptional versatility of the layout. The accommodation is completed by a beautifully modernised principal bathroom, featuring a sleek walk-in shower and tasteful finishes that are in perfect keeping with the property’s aesthetic.

Perfectly positioned on Observatory Road, at the junction with the iconic Byres Road, this residence is surrounded by the very best of Glasgow’s West End. From high-end shopping and award-winning restaurants to artisan cafés and cultural landmarks, the area is brimming with local amenities. Hillhead Subway Station and multiple bus routes provide swift access to the city centre and beyond, while the nearby University of Glasgow lends the neighbourhood a vibrant, cosmopolitan energy.
Residents are also spoilt for choice when it comes to outdoor pursuits, with the beautiful Glasgow Botanic Gardens and Kelvingrove Park just a short stroll away. Cultural gems such as the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum are similarly close, ensuring a lifestyle of convenience, sophistication, and enrichment.
