A substantial three-bedroom main door garden level conversion which benefits from a central yet peaceful situation within a highly sought after & elegant address at the edge of Hyndland – perfectly placed for growing West End families, downsizers and professional couples who wish easy access to everything the local area has to offer, whilst retaining peaceful & leafy surroundings.
Devonshire Terrace was designed by renowned Glasgow Architect, James Thomson. A significant influence of architecture within the West End of the city, Thomson, is responsible for the historical street layout & feu arrangement of the Dowanhill Estate and indeed the design of many highly regarded local terraces including both Belhaven Terraces, & Crown Circus as well as iconic buildings in Glasgow city centre such as the ornate Connal building of West George Street. Testament to the works of this celebrated designer, Devonshire Terrace which was originally constructed in 1883, is a stunning traditional terrace constructed of polished ashlar and set within a beautiful tree-lined enclave, running East to West with South facing gardens to rear. It is regarded as one of the West End’s finest grand terraces and is stunningly leafy and peaceful, despite being within easy cycling distance of Byres Road & all the West End hustle and bustle you could wish for.
The property for sale is held within the Eastmost gable end Pavillion house, perfectly orientated for exposure to natural light from early in the morning, throughout the afternoon and into the evening. The property is situated at garden level and has a private entrance gate that provides access to the main door entrance via a short flight of steps and an enclosed ‘well garden’ – just beneath the ‘flying staircase’ for the house above. As such the property’s entrance is highly private and well sheltered – perfect for sitting outdoors and getting some fresh air, regardless of weather conditions. To the rear of the property there is an enclosed resident’s garden into which the home for sale has access. This lovely South-facing shared outdoor space is laid to lawn and is maintained to a good standard.
Internally this is an extremely attractive three-bedroom apartment which offers substantial, versatile accommodation that has been re-configured by the current owners to offer highly attractive, functional accommodation in which original features have been carefully exposed and restored. The result is a comfortable, stylish living space which simply must be seen in person to be fully appreciated. The attached photographs and HD video will give you some idea of the overall size, style and specification of the property but in brief the accommodation extends to; main door entrance to reception hall that leads to each of the principal apartments, plumbed utility cupboard with laundry pulley and a large storage cupboard. There is a substantial living room which has an exposed blonde sandstone fireplace on one wall and is open plan to a sleek modern kitchen complete with professional standard cooker – a brilliant flowing space that would be great for a growing family or couple who enjoy entertaining guests. The three bedrooms are all of king-sized proportions and the principal has an en-suite shower room. The main bathroom has a white suite with shower over bath.
As you will see, the property has been skilfully re-designed and improved with great thought, attention to detail and beautiful use of carefully selected finishings. From reclaimed hardwood flooring to exposed, cleaned sandstone, stained plywood finishings and subway tiles galore – it is plain that the current owners are designers.
Beyond these features and details, the property has a quirk that only the most learned of West End property geeks will be aware of. Devonshire Terrace only has one fully formed gable end pavilion house, which is number 1, where the subject property is situated. The West most Gable end at the opposite end of the terrace was never completed, because the original building contractor is understood to have ‘gone bust’ in 1884 towards the end of the original construction of Devonshire Terrace and a quick walk to the other end of the terrace during your viewing will make this completely obvious.
