About this property
Positioned at the edge of Dowanhill and within minutes' walk of Byres Road and Glasgow University, this exceptional, South-facing four-bedroom home is considered to be one of the largest examples in central Scotland and benefits from a stunning, top floor, corner position which affords the accommodation with beautiful open views over Dowanhill Park and off towards the Southside of the city. 40 Highburgh Road is held within a stunning red sandstone tenement which has returned frontage onto Queens Gate.
These buildings were designed by the late David Barclay of H & D Barclay in collaboration with G S Kenneth between 1898 and 1912 and are unified by the use of particularly distinctive detailing on the bowed windows, by elaborate stained and painted glass in the upper fanlights and sashes, using every variation of Glasgow Style Art Nouveau.
This beautiful property has an extensive number of original features which makes it unique including a 28ft reception hallway with deep picture rails, ornate door surrounds and box skirting boards complemented by a douglas fir panelled wall with wonderful stained glass upper fanlights. There are four separate five pane bow windows in the property, two of which belong to the fabulous formal lounge which offers unquestionably one of the best views in the West End. In short compass, this beautiful apartment is without doubt one of the most impressive properties in Glasgow - offering everything from beautiful, ornate architectural detail to modern, comfortable accommodation and of course an unforgettable outlook, which must be experienced in person to be fully appreciated. The building is entered through a beautiful original doorway which is controlled by secure entry system with buzzer access for guests.
Whilst many shared hallways can be slightly underwhelming, the communal hall and staircases in this building are an absolute masterpiece with original marble panelled walls, beautiful hardwood balustrade and attractive stained-glass windows. The home for sale is positioned on the top level and is accessed through the right-hand doorway through attractive, grey storm doors and an original oak and stained-glass inner door. Upon entering the property, you will be stunned by the sheer size and depth of the accommodation which is instantly revealed by the expansive L-shaped hallway. Whilst the attached photographs, floorplan and HD video will give you some idea of the size and specification of the accommodation, you will simply have to visit the property in person to fully appreciate the wonderful dimensions which make this stunning apartment stand out from the crowd. The property benefits from having two substantial public rooms including a fabulous corner lounge with twin bow windows and a breath-taking formal dining room which can comfortably accommodate a 12-seat dining suite. There are four extremely comfortable bedrooms including three king-sized bedrooms and a single-sized bedroom which is currently utilised as a home office. The dining kitchen has a central island, parquet flooring, window seat and full complement of fitted appliances. Beside the kitchen there is a large laundry room/utility room complete with appliances and storage shelves and further round the hallway you will find a beautiful linen cupboard at the entrance to a modernised shower room. Finally, there is a large main bathroom with white four-piece suite including original Victorian bath with original pillar-style drain. The extensive accommodation will appeal to a broad spectrum of buyers but will be of particular interest to professional couples who have a new requirement for permanent home office spaces and also growing West End families in search of a central position, within walking distance of local primary and secondary schools, Waitrose supermarket and indeed all amenities in this desirable, vibrant location.
