Upper Duplex 4 Rosslyn Terrace, Dowanhill, G12 9NB

Occupying the first and second floors of a distinguished Victorian terrace within the highly coveted Dowanhill, this exceptional four bedroom conversion offers a rare combination of architectural grandeur, refined modern specification, and remarkable natural light. The property enjoys an enviable sense of exclusivity, sharing its entrance close with just one other residence.

From the moment you enter, the scale and elegance of the building are immediately apparent. On first arrival, you are welcomed via a striking original balustrade, which leads gracefully to the upper levels of the property and sets the tone for the architectural character throughout. Above, a stunning cupola allows natural light to cascade through the stairwells and landings, enhancing the sense of space and illuminating the home beautifully from within.

The main front drawing room is nothing short of spectacular. An expansive, light-filled space defined by soaring proportions, exquisite original period detailing, and magnificent full height sash windows that flood the room with natural light throughout the day. Ornate cornicing, tall ceilings, and beautifully preserved features speak to the building's heritage, while bespoke joinery and shelving have been seamlessly integrated to enhance both form and function without detracting from the room's architectural integrity. The result is a space of rare character and presence, perfectly suited to both entertaining and relaxed living.

To the rear of the property lies an outstanding kitchen and dining space, finished to an exacting standard and designed as a true heart of the home. Installed just two years ago, the kitchen pairs contemporary craftsmanship with timeless detailing, featuring quartz splashback surfaces, exquisite brass taps and hardware by deVOL, refined Corston wall lights and switches, and premium integrated appliances by AEG. The generous proportions comfortably accommodate a dining table, creating a highly sociable and inviting setting for both everyday use and entertaining on a larger scale.

Completing this level is an additional living space to the rear, which offers excellent flexibility and could also be utilised as a fifth bedroom if required, and a contemporary family shower room, with discreet storage thoughtfully integrated within the eaves, accessed through an elegant stained glass window.

Upstairs, there are four adaptable bedrooms, two of which are generous double rooms positioned to the front and rear respectively. Both enjoy attractive open aspects that enhance privacy and a strong sense of space, with each also benefiting from built-in wardrobes and useful deep eaves storage. The remaining two bedrooms are well-proportioned, offering excellent versatility for use as guest rooms, children's rooms, or additional study or home office spaces as required, including one currently arranged as a home office. The bathroom, tastefully renovated approximately four years ago, continues the home's refined aesthetic with beautifully considered finishes, including distinctive tiling by Bert & May.

Throughout the property, oak flooring and high-quality carpets have both been installed within the last four years, adding warmth and continuity, complementing the period character while providing a fresh, modern finish. A new boiler installed just two years ago ensures efficient and reliable heating throughout.
