Crown Terrace, Dowanhill, Glasgow

Tucked away in the quiet, leafy heart of Dowanhill, this exceptional three-bedroom upper conversion occupies the top floor of a magnificent blonde sandstone townhouse at 1 Crown Terrace. A truly special home which has been professionally upgraded and beautifully curated for modern living.

From the moment you arrive, the charm and grandeur of Crown Terrace are unmistakable. Designed by renowned Glasgow architect James Thomson, whose work helped shape the character of the West End, this stunning street is rich in architectural heritage. Crafted from polished ashlar stone and set high above the road, the terrace enjoys a south-facing outlook over the tranquil residents' pleasure gardens, and is a quiet serene retreat despite being so well connected to the city.

Positioned at second (top) floor level, the apartment enjoys tremendous natural light and spectacular open views across treetops and rooftops. Inside, it becomes immediately clear that this is no ordinary conversion. The current owners have undertaken a carefully considered, high-specification renovation, resulting in a space that feels both refined and relaxed, minimalist yet warm - flooded with daylight, thanks to the elevated position and generously proportioned windows.

The heart of the home is the living room, where original proportions and period charm meet modern design. A striking wood-burning stove, set within a beautifully tiled fireplace, anchors the room, while herringbone oak flooring adds character underfoot. The adjacent dining kitchen is a masterpiece of bespoke design, created by Archispek, an acclaimed Scottish studio known for handcrafted interiors. Ply cabinetry, Carrara marble worktops, and Terrazzo tiles create a sense of understated luxury, and Siemens appliances are seamlessly integrated for both function and style.

There are three double bedrooms, each thoughtfully arranged, with the principal bedroom especially impressive in scale, complete with lovely dual-aspect windows that bring in light throughout the day. The main bathroom is another standout highlight - a calm, contemporary space finished with Italian Fioranese tiling and beautifully chosen fixtures, offering a sense of boutique hotel-style indulgence.
From the architecture to the interiors, every element of this home has been approached with care and intention. The result is a remarkable property - bright, peaceful, and entirely ready to move into - set in one of the West End’s most desirable and historic addresses. Crown Terrace combines timeless elegance with modern living in a way few properties manage to achieve.
