Gibson Street, Glasgow G40

Details

The Barras is a Glaswegian institution, which at one time was the largest open-air market in Europe. It is an area of the city with distinct character and much folklore surrounding it. Once a hotspot for street hawkers & bric-a-brac hunters, the Calton district within which the Barras sits has recently become the focus of multiple regeneration projects, with the neighbouring Barras Art And Design venue, St Luke's and new bars such as The Gate and 226 Gallowgate, all making this a much more refined and sought-after place to settle.

Set within a period red brick warehouse, once a pipe factory, the building was converted to city flats and this incredibly smart second floor apartment offers a welcoming reception hall with fitted storage cupboard and access to all apartments including an immediately impressive main living area that enjoys open views across the surrounding district and beyond. The main living area consists of a comfortable lounge, dining area and an open plan fitted kitchen with a range of base and wall mounted storage units with contrasting work surface areas and ample space for freestanding appliances. There is a spacious double sized bedroom with fitted wardrobes providing good shelf and hanging space, and the accommodation is completed by a well-appointed bathroom comprising a white three-piece suite with electric shower over bath. The specification includes double glazing, electric heating and access to the building is via a security-controlled door.

The property sits in a highly central location and is within walking distance of a number of shops catering for day-to-day needs, together with a fine selection of bars, restaurants and cafes. Higher Education is available at Strathclyde and Caledonian Universities, and public transport is available by both bus and rail.
