A & S Ireland Estate Agents are pleased to present to the market
this extremely well maintained sandstone mid terraced villa which
is quietly situated on a sought after street within the ever
popular Jordanhill area of Glasgow's flourishing West End. The
property is located within the Jordanhill School catchment and can
be found in good decorative order throughout its five/six principal
apartments which comprise welcoming reception hallway accessed
through covered portico and timber and stained glazed panelled
door. This hallway has staircase leading to upper apartments with
two understairs storage cupboards provided and access doors leading
in to the lounge, dining room and kitchen with bespoke radiator
cover, alarm keypad and ornate balustrade leading up to the first
floor. The fabulous bay windowed lounge has inset stained glazed
panelling within front facing windows, traditionally styled
decoration complimenting the stripped timber flooring, timber fire
surround with Mackintosh style inserts and living flame gas fire,
inset alcove, ceiling light point and decorative coving. The dining
room has PVC and double glazed French doors opening out to the rear
decked area and ample space for a dining table and chairs. The
fitted kitchen has a wide array of floor and wall mounted units
offering good storage accommodation with inset oven, hob and hood,
dishwasher and deep storage cupboard provided. An access door leads
through to the rear facing sun room which is ideal as its current
use as a utility room, although would lend itself to a light and
bright breakfasting area. Floored attic with pull down ladder,
could be converted subject to planning permission and building
warrants.
Access to upper apartments is gained via a substantial treaded
staircase with stair runner carpet and ornate balustrade to side
leading to the upper landing which has stripped flooring, overhead
glazed cupola and access to three good size bedrooms and the family
bathroom which has three piece coloured suite, mains shower, opaque
glazed roof and rear facing window. Further features include gas
fired central heating, well maintained single glazed units which
have been retained with occasional stained glazed inserts and
particular mention should be made to the landscaped and lawned
front gardens with mature and young plants, trees and shrubs
leading upwards from street level to the front door and, at the
rear the gardens must be viewed with a generous decked area at
ground level with two outhouses providing additional storage and
stairs leading up to two further landscaped areas, the first being
laid to lawn and the upper level creating a paved patio for use
throughout all seasons. Again mature and young plants, trees and
shrubs surround with timber fencework providing enclosure. Early
viewing is strongly recommended as property within this particular
area tends to sell quickly particularly being within the school
catchment and offered in good decorative order at what the agents
consider to be a competitive asking price.
The West End of Glasgow is home to the main campus of the
University of Glasgow and several major teaching hospitals. There
is a wide range of independent shops with several supermarkets and
high street banks provided. The area has an eclectic range of
cafes, bars and restaurants and there are good road links within
the West End and connections towards Glasgow City Centre and the M8
motorway which leads to destinations further afield. There are also
underground railway stations at Kelvin Hall, Hillhead and Partick

including the Riverfront Museum, Kelvin Hall International Arena,
