Trefoil Avenue, Shawlands, G41 3PD

Behind a handsome red sandstone façade within one of Shawlands’ most desirable residential pockets, this outstanding top floor apartment delivers an exceptional standard of accommodation with a seamless balance of classic tenement character and sophisticated modern living.

Having undergone an extensive and carefully considered refurbishment in recent years, the property has been transformed into a turnkey home, finished with a clear attention to detail throughout. The property is accessed via an obviously well factored communal entrance and stairwell featuring wonderfully preserved original period detailing.

The apartment itself opens via a broad and welcoming reception hallway which immediately highlights the sense of space and quality found throughout the home and further benefits from a highly practical walk-in storage cupboard. The accommodation centres around an impressive open plan living space which effortlessly combines lounge, dining and kitchen areas into one beautifully sociable environment. The bay windowed lounge is flooded with natural light and enhanced by elegant proportions, intricate cornicing, a designer column radiator and a beautiful original cast iron fireplace, while the contemporary kitchen has been thoughtfully integrated with sleek cabinetry, integrated appliances, breakfast bar seating and stylish subway tiling throughout.

The principal bedroom is a particularly attractive space and one of the home’s standout features. Rarely found within traditional Shawlands tenements, the room enjoys a bay window formation to the rear which captures wonderful elevated open views across the surrounding area and creates a bright and peaceful retreat. The room is complemented by modern en-suite facilities and generous proportions. A substantial second double bedroom offers excellent flexibility for guests, home working or additional living space.

The main shower room has been finished in a clean contemporary style with quality fittings and striking tiling, while additional features include gas central heating, double glazing, tasteful décor, quality flooring and access to a well-kept communal rear garden.

Trefoil Avenue is perfectly positioned to take advantage of Shawlands’ vibrant mix of independent coffee shops, restaurants, bars and boutiques.
