19 Falkland Street, Hyndland, G12

Owned by the same family for 55 years, this substantial four-bedroom flat on Falkland Street is exactly that: beautifully kept, wonderfully original and, despite its more traditional interior, in remarkable condition.

Occupying the preferred first floor of an impressive red sandstone tenement, the flat has the scale and proportions that make these larger Hyndland apartments so sought after. The owners speak particularly fondly of the amount of space they enjoyed here as a family, with large, bright rooms and an open outlook towards the Campsies. As their family grew, and eventually their children returned with families of their own, there was always room for everyone.

The accommodation includes four bedrooms, generous living space and two bathrooms, including a particularly useful shower room with WC positioned just off the kitchen. Excellent storage is provided throughout. The overall layout has worked exceptionally well as a family home and remains every bit as practical for modern day-to-day living.

The interiors are undoubtedly of their time, but that is really part of the opportunity here. This isn’t a property where refurbishment is a prerequisite to moving in.

Everything has been maintained with extraordinary care, meaning a buyer could comfortably move in, enjoy the flat exactly as it is and consider changes gradually over the coming years. In time, there is enormous scope to create something very special, while retaining the proportions and character that are already here.

The kitchen is generous and practical, enjoying morning sunshine, while the position on the odd-numbered side of Falkland Street means the principal rooms at the front catch the sun from the afternoon through to the end of the day.

To the rear, there is a well kept communal garden. Beyond the building itself, the location has proved equally valuable over the years. Schools, local shops, children’s play areas and the Botanic Gardens are all within easy reach, while Hyndland’s excellent rail and bus connections make getting around Glasgow straightforward. The M8, Clydeside Expressway and Clyde Tunnel are also readily accessible.

After 55 years with one family, homes like this don’t come to the market particularly often. What stands out about 19 Falkland Street isn’t simply its size or its first-floor position, but how well it has worked as a home for so long.

It is immaculate enough to move into tomorrow, original enough to offer its next owner a genuine opportunity, and large enough to become the sort of family home that might, once again, be held onto for a very long time.
