Description

This one-bedroom garden flat presents a promising opportunity for investors or those looking to create a bespoke living space in a sought-after area of Glasgow’s West End. Housed within a charming blonde sandstone townhouse, the property is situated in Dowanhill, an area celebrated for its mature greenery and community atmosphere. While the flat requires extensive renovation, its solid structural features offer a blank canvas for imaginative improvement. The main living area boasts high ceilings and French doors that lead directly into a private garden—a rare benefit in this location—providing ample potential for outdoor enjoyment and entertaining. This exclusive access enhances the property's appeal, allowing you to create an inviting outdoor retreat. The kitchen awaits refurbishment but has the advantage of a hatch opening to the lounge, promoting an open-plan feel once updated. The spacious bedroom comes with a convenient walk-in cupboard and an ensuite bathroom, while an additional separate WC is easily accessible from the hallway, making it functional for residents and guests alike. Beyond the walls of this property, you’re just moments away from Hyndland Road and all it has to offer—an array of cafés, shops, and restaurants, alongside excellent transport links to explore further afield. Close proximity to Byres Road and local attractions like the Glasgow Botanic Gardens and Kelvingrove Park strikes an appealing balance between urban vibrancy and serene green spaces. This flat not only offers a unique character but also significant investment potential in one of Glasgow's most desirable neighborhoods. While it’s essential to note that comprehensive refurbishment is needed throughout, the prospects for creating a customized living space in such an attractive setting are abundant.
