Description

A particularly impressive two-bedroom lower ground floor apartment, positioned at the edge of Dowanhill in Glasgow’s highly desirable West End.

Set within an attractive blonde sandstone tenement on Highburgh Road, this generously proportioned home enjoys a prime location just around the corner from Byres Road and within a short stroll of the University of Glasgow’s Gilmorehill Campus.

This enviable address places the property at the heart of one of the West End’s most vibrant and amenity-rich neighbourhoods. A diverse range of restaurants, bars, artisan coffee shops, and independent retailers can be accessed in the area, while a Waitrose supermarket sits conveniently at the top of Byres Road. Hillhead Underground Station is located approximately 100 metres from the front door, offering excellent links into the city centre and beyond. Highburgh Road and nearby Byres Road are both well served by frequent bus services, further enhancing the property’s connectivity.

Thanks to its proximity to the University and surrounding amenities, this stylish apartment is likely to appeal to a wide range of buyers — including professional couples, academics, postgraduates, and students seeking a high-quality home in a sought-after, central West End setting.

Internally, the apartment offers bright and comfortable living space with a lovely balance of period character and contemporary finishes. The current owner has clearly taken great care in maintaining the property, with tasteful décor and attractive traditional features throughout.

The accommodation comprises: welcoming entrance hall with two useful storage cupboards; a beautiful bow-window living room with stripped wooden flooring and an elegant central fireplace; an impressive dining kitchen with ample space for a family-sized table, complete with traditional-style wooden cabinetry and integrated appliances, including a stainless steel range cooker. There are two generously sized double bedrooms, each of which can comfortably accommodate free-standing wardrobes, drawer sets or desks. A well-appointed bathroom completes the layout, featuring a white suite with shower-over-bath and elegant stone-toned wall tiling.
Early viewing is strongly recommended to appreciate the full extent of the property’s space, style, and superb location. The attached photographs, floorplan, and HD video provide a helpful overview, but an in-person visit is essential to fully appreciate everything this charming West End home has to offer.
