Kings Gate, 33 Victoria Crescent Road, Dowanhill, Glasgow, G12 9DD

Benefitting from a quiet yet convenient location with direct views over Willowbank Bowling Club, this absolutely stunning townhouse is located within the sought-after Dowanhill area.

Dowanhill is one of Glasgow's most prestigious residential areas, situated in the heart of the West End. 

Known for its elegant Victorian and Edwardian architecture and tree-lined streets, it combines a quiet residential feel whilst benefiting from immediate access to some of the city's best amenities. 

Much of the area is made up of handsome sandstone terraces, grand townhouses, villas and traditional tenements, many of which are listed due to their architectural importance. 

Kings Gate is an intimate terrace of only a few homes, which was designed by David Barclay and completed in 1902. 

The terrace is set back from Victoria Crescent Road behind tall electric gates, which provide access to a large driveway offering secure  private parking for five vehicles. This house also benefits from a car turntable, providing an easy "drive in - drive out" facility. 

The current owner has comprehensively upgraded the property throughout to a standard seldom seen, enhanced by superb original features, plus a brand-new slate roof installed only two years ago.

Internally, the home retains superb stained-glass windows, ornamental woodwork, original panelling and fireplaces, all of which have been painstakingly restored. The attached floorplan and video will give a good indication as to the size and layout; however, the accommodation extends to: a stunning reception hall with original fireplace and panelling, a spacious living room which overlooks the bowling green, a bay-window dining room, a superb panelled home office/study, and a cloakroom. At garden level, there is a large utility room and a fab dining kitchen by Paul Hodgkiss, with direct access to the rear garden. There is also a panelled games room, plus a bathroom with a steam shower.

The main bathroom has been designed and refitted by Drummonds Bathrooms. It has a large walk-in shower with marble tiling, a vanity unit with his-and-hers sinks, and a free-standing cast-iron bath. There are four generous double bedrooms, including a spacious principal suite with a dressing room and an en-suite bathroom with a four-piece suite.

The rear garden is a manageable size and extremely private. It is west-facing and therefore incredibly bright from the afternoon through to the evening. It is made up of a slabbed patio area and a section of lawn, and provides a great space for relaxing or entertaining.
