Description

Offering comfortable accommodation, superb open views over the local area and a wonderful position within a peaceful and leafy part of Dowanhill, this attractive two-bedroom second-floor conversion is loaded with character and offers tremendous value at this price point.

Crown Circus is one of the most elegant terraces within the Dowanhill Estate and, as a result of its sheer beauty, is a well-known landmark of the area. Sitting proudly at the top of Dowanside Road behind lawned perimeter gardens, this breathtaking curved blonde sandstone terrace contains a beautiful selection of conversions, many of which, including the home for sale, enjoy superb open views over the surrounding rooftops and towards Glasgow University.

Designed by James Thomson between 1857 and 1860, Crown Circus is the only semi-circular terrace within Dowanhill and remains one of the area's most distinctive addresses. The terrace is formed around attractive central gardens and is notable for its blonde sandstone frontage, cast-iron railings and mature trees. Between 2005 and 2009, the buildings underwent an extensive programme of restoration and upgrading, helping to preserve the character and appearance of this important period terrace.

The property for sale is a well-appointed two-bedroom conversion which enjoys a lovely elevated position, providing tremendous levels of privacy, excellent natural light and views that are nothing short of distracting. The interior extends to approximately 840 square feet of living space and includes a welcoming hallway with useful cupboard storage, a beautiful front-facing living room from which the finest views in the home can be enjoyed, a king-sized principal bedroom with ample space for freestanding furniture, a double-sized second bedroom tucked away to the rear and currently used as a comfortable children's bedroom, a fitted kitchen with attractive aspects along the rear elevation of Crown Terrace, and an internal main bathroom with a white suite and shower over bath.
