Description

Perfectly positioned in one of the Southside's most connected locations, this elevated ground floor conversion offers a rare blend of period architecture and true city accessibility. Not far from Strathbungo's cafes and restaurants, this one-bedroom apartment is found in the bustling East Pollokshields conservation area. The building was split some years ago to house three properties all of whom have access to a shared rear garden.

The accommodation in brief; communal stairwell shared with two neighbours, private entrance hall with large storage cupboard/home office, spectacular drawing room with twin window formation and a working fire surrounded by a marble mantle. To the rear of the property is a double bedroom with a decorative fire surround, a three-piece bathroom suite with Mira shower above the tub and a fitted breakfasting sized kitchen.

The specification has remote controlled gas central heating via the Hive app, partial double glazing and tremendous traditional features such as ceiling plasterwork, exposed timber flooring and functional window shutters. Stair access through the building leads out to a shared, low maintenance back garden. An important point for astute buyers would be the installation of a new slate roof covering in 2023.

About Corum, Shawlands

247 Kilmarnock Road, Glasgow, G41 3JF
Industry affiliations:Industry affiliation logo 0Industry affiliation logo 1Industry affiliation logo 2

Only 2 miles south of the City Centre, Shawlands is centrally positioned between the sought-after suburbs of Pollokshields, Queens Park, Cathcart and Newlands where a high proportion of residential property was built during the Victorian era at a time when shipbuilding and heavy industry in Glasgow was at its peak.

Outstanding architecture from the drawing board of Alexander Thomson/James Turnbull and H E Clifford resulted in a diverse mix of residential property, ranging from Victorian tenement flats to outstanding neo-gothic detached villas.

The area is well served by a number of reputable golf clubs, Pollok Country Park, the world famous Burrell Collection and a number of well maintained regularly used municipal parks.

The South Side of Glasgow is often regarded as a convenient commuter base complimented by sought-after peaceful suburbs.
