Fergus Drive, North Kelvinside, Glasgow

Occupying a top floor position within a handsome traditional blonde sandstone tenement, this substantial two-bedroom apartment offers bright, comfortable accommodation and enjoys particularly pleasant open aspects to the front towards Queen Margaret Bridge and the edge of the Botanic Gardens.

Presented to a high standard throughout, the property offers an appealing combination of generous room proportions, traditional tenement character and tasteful modern finishes. A recently renewed Magnet kitchen is an important feature, while the elevated position and attractive outlook give the principal apartments a lovely sense of light and openness.

Internally, the accommodation is well balanced and provides comfortable space for everyday living, entertaining and homeworking. The principal living room is an impressive apartment with excellent proportions and benefits considerably from the property's top floor position, with an attractive outlook from the bay window across the surrounding area towards Queen Margaret Bridge and the greenery at the edge of the Botanic Gardens. So nice is the view that the current owners have created a lovely bay window seat – a lovely spot for Sunday morning coffees.

The recently renewed Magnet kitchen has been finished in a smart contemporary style and provides an attractive and practical space for cooking and dining. The investment made in the kitchen, together with the generally high standard of presentation throughout the apartment, means that the property is very much ready for a new owner to move into and enjoy.

The accommodation extends to a welcoming reception hall with three useful storage cupboards, leading to a particularly comfortable bay-windowed lounge with attractive open aspects to the front and a recessed area which provides a natural space for additional furniture. There are two comfortable king-sized bedrooms, providing excellent accommodation for owners and guests alike, while the stunning recently modernised kitchen has been ergonomically designed to make excellent use of the available space and offers a stylish and highly practical cooking environment. Completing the accommodation is the main bathroom, fitted with a white suite and shower over the bath.

One of the great advantages of the property is its position within North Kelvinside. Fergus Drive is a particularly convenient address, close to the Botanic Gardens and the extensive network of paths along the River Kelvin, providing excellent opportunities for walking, running and cycling. Queen Margaret Drive is nearby and has developed into a particularly appealing local hub with independent cafés, restaurants and shops, while Great Western Road and Byres Road provide an even broader selection of amenities.
The University of Glasgow is also within easy walking or cycling distance, making the location particularly attractive to university staff, academics and those undertaking postgraduate study. Excellent connections towards the City Centre and other parts of Glasgow further reinforce the convenience of the location.

North Kelvinside itself continues to attract an interesting and varied range of buyers. The combination of handsome traditional architecture, excellent access to green space and immediate proximity to the wider West End makes the area particularly popular with professional individuals and couples, academics and those looking to establish themselves in the West End without necessarily being in its busiest streets. For buyers who work partly from home, the two-bedroom layout also offers valuable flexibility without compromising the property's principal living accommodation.

Overall, 162 Fergus Drive is a particularly appealing and substantial two-bedroom apartment, combining a peaceful top floor position and attractive open outlook with a recently renewed kitchen, comfortable room proportions and a highly convenient North Kelvinside address.
