Description

Occupying an exceptional top-floor position within one of Glasgow’s iconic sandstone tenements, this remarkable penthouse apartment offers a rare combination of scale, character and elevated open views across Queen’s Park and beyond.

Accessed via a private entrance with stairs leading up into the main accommodation, the property immediately creates a sense of arrival and separation from the everyday. Extending to approximately 136.6 sq.m. (1,471 sq.ft.), the layout offers an impressive balance of grand entertaining spaces and flexible family living.

At the heart of the home is the spectacular main lounge, an expansive and light-filled room framed by dramatic rooflines and outstanding outlooks across the surrounding cityscape and over Queen’s Park. The penthouse position gives the property a unique sense of privacy and perspective rarely found in traditional Glasgow tenements.

The accommodation includes three generously proportioned bedrooms, with the principal bedroom particularly notable for its scale, distinctive architecture and exceptional setting. Adding to the individuality of the property, a striking ornamental statue sits just outside the corner of the main bedroom, creating a memorable architectural feature and an atmosphere unlike any conventional apartment.

One of the most unusual and charming features of this home is the collection of ornamental balconies accessed directly from selected windows—an increasingly rare detail that enhances the character of the property and allows residents to step out and enjoy the elevated surroundings and open outlook.

The spacious kitchen, central hall, useful storage space and additional WC complete a layout designed for both practical living and entertaining.

Combining period grandeur, unique architectural details and one of Glasgow’s most desirable southside settings, this is an outstanding opportunity to acquire a truly distinctive penthouse home overlooking Queen’s Park.
