Cleveden Drive, Kelvinside, Glasgow

Extending to over 2,400 square feet, this exceptional four-bedroom, four-washroom duplex apartment occupies the upper portion of a striking Victorian villa, offering beautifully appointed and highly substantial living space, seldom encountered within a conversion of this nature.

Dating back to circa 1860, No. 15 Cleveden Drive is located within the highly desirable Kelvinside district of Glasgow’s West End. Having undergone a complete renovation in the spring of 2025, the current owners have created a turnkey home perfectly suited for any discerning buyer.

Grand pillars flank the entrance of no.15 and lead into an attractive, freshly gravelled path with well-maintained lawns, cushioned by an established planted border - all in keeping with this elegant property.

Boasting excellent curb appeal from a recent external repaint, the home features grand, deep bay windows that naturally attract the sun from its elevated south facing position.

The main entrance retains the original Victorian tiles and has a bright glazed corridor that provides a warm welcoming introduction to this home. Stepping inside this apartment, you are greeted by an original staircase and crisp wall panelling, beautifully illuminated from above by a stunning, glazed cupola framed by ornate cornicing. This accommodation has managed to perfectly balance period grandeur with a contemporary specification.

The lower floor is centred around a truly outstanding open plan living, dining and kitchen space, beautifully proportioned and distinctly zoned to offer defined functional spaces. The sitting area features a handsome marble fireplace with contrasting inset, and turns towards a deep bay window that frames an uninterrupted leafy outlook. Positioned to the rear within a panelled recess, the dining area sits beside a window that floods the space with natural light, offering a more formal alternative to the kitchen’s breakfasting bar.

The German engineered Ballerina Kitchen, designed and expertly fitted by Kitchen Architect of Great Western Road is a real showstopper. No expense has been spared with the current owners opting for a full suite of Siemens Studio line appliances, perfectly complimented with, Sintered Porcelain ‘Dekton’ worktops and splashbacks.

The centre island which spans over three meters in length provides a great space for entertaining around the kitchen, whilst incorporating a Siemens Flex Induction hob and cleverly hidden glass downdraught extraction system.

The concealed pantry sits behind a pocket door system, complete with Siemens wine cooler, and keeps the working elements of the room discreet.

Also located on the lower level and quite exceptional in its own right is the principal bedroom. This generously sized room stretching to almost twenty feet in length, feels like its own personal hotel suite, with seating area and considerable en-suite shower room, finished with Porcelanosa tiling and walk in shower enclosure.

Finishing off the lower level is a guest W/C and carefully designed utility room, also by Ballerina Kitchen, that ensures daily essentials are well catered for and subtly hidden from sight.

The upper level offers a further three well-proportioned double bedrooms, arranged around a central landing. The clever internal layout of this upper floor allows for each bedroom to have its own ensuite, which is rarely available within a conversion of this nature.

Bedrooms two and three are of great proportions, with twin sky lights, and continue to radiate a ‘hotel like’ feel. These double bedrooms gain access to a large family ‘jack & jill’ bathroom by Porcelanosa, whilst benefiting from a freestanding bath and oversized walk-in shower.

Bedroom four is a well-proportioned double bedroom featuring its own cupola and charming dormer window with a leafy outlook onto a tree-lined canopy. This room benefits from its own ensuite bathroom, which has been cleverly designed and beautifully finished with Porcelanosa tiling.

Practicality meets style on the upper level, where all bedrooms feature substantial, built-in storage utilising the convenient eaves space.

Cleveden Drive remains one of Kelvinside’s most prestigious addresses and is quite rightly regarded as one of the finest streets in Glasgow’s West End. Known for its wide, tree lined layout, characterised by imposing Victorian villas and terraces that remain highly sought after by buyers.

Kelvinside Academy and The Glasgow Academy are within comfortable walking distance, alongside several highly regarded state schools. Access to the Botanic Gardens is just a short walk away, as are the many boutiques and eateries of Byres Road, Hyndland Road and amenities of Great Western Road. Hyndland railway station and Hillhead subway station provide swift connections to the city centre and beyond. For the motorist, Great Western Road offers a direct route into town and onward access to the wider motorway network. An apartment of this scale, condition and address will hold considerable appeal for growing families and discerning purchasers seeking a high specification, turnkey home of genuine distinction in the heart of Kelvinside.
