Essex Drive, Jordanhill, Glasgow

This elegant sandstone four bedroom mid terraced house on Essex Drive marries classic Jordanhill character with a dramatic contemporary rear extension, awash with sunlight and creating an exceptional family home within prime Jordanhill School catchment.

The defining element of 115 Essex Drive is the home’s contemporary rear extension, which serves as an architectural marvel. A split level raised kitchen descends a soft toned timber stairway into a beautiful and serene living and dining area. This space is almost united with the outdoors through broad “wall to wall” bi-fold doors. Vaulted ceilings and an abundance of skylights further amplify the sense of volume and scale, thus creating an astonishing space perfect for family life and entertaining. Further practicality is lent via an imperative utility room, convenient downstairs shower room and useful cellar storage area.

Finally, we would like to highlight the innovative and high quality attic conversion which has a stylish stairway, upper landing, a fabulous bedroom with eaves storage and an amazing contemporary bathroom.

Essex Drive enjoys a peaceful setting at the heart of Jordanhill with excellent access to local amenities, transport links and the open spaces of Victoria Park. Jordanhill School is one of Scotland’s most prestigious and best performing schools, while several highly regarded independent schools are also nearby.
