2 bed flat for sale

9 Belhaven Terrace, Dowanhill G12

Set on the preferred first floor of an elegant sandstone conversion on Belhaven Terrace, this is the sort of apartment many people picture when they think about living in Glasgow’s West End.

The building itself is immediately impressive, with a welcoming communal entrance, beautiful original tiled flooring and a well-maintained staircase setting the tone on arrival. The apartment beyond offers generous proportions, wonderful natural light and a wealth of original period character.

The standout room is undoubtedly the magnificent bay-windowed living room. With intricate cornicing, a striking ceiling rose, working fireplace and leafy outlook to the front, it’s a room that feels both grand and comfortable. The current owner often talks about how every room offers something worth appreciating, whether that’s the original fireplaces, the ornate plasterwork, the high ceilings or simply the greenery beyond the windows.

The accommodation includes two generous double bedrooms, both enhanced by hardwood flooring installed by the current owner. The principal bedroom enjoys particularly attractive views over mature trees to the rear, creating a surprisingly peaceful setting for such a central location.

The kitchen and bathroom have both been upgraded during the current ownership, while additional improvements include the restoration of both fireplaces, the creation of useful storage throughout the apartment and the addition of a separate WC, cleverly formed from a former cupboard and ideal for guests.

To the rear is a beautifully maintained shared garden. Mature, private and exceptionally well cared for, it provides a wonderful place to sit and unwind during the warmer months.

The location is one of the property’s greatest strengths. Belhaven Terrace sits in the heart of Dowanhill, perfectly placed for Byres Road, Hyndland, Glasgow University and some of the West End’s best cafés, restaurants and independent shops. Despite its central position, the apartment enjoys a surprising sense of peace thanks to its green outlooks and quiet setting.

Having owned the property for almost ten years, the current owner describes it as a home that feels bright, airy and spacious, whilst still retaining a warmth and comfort that makes it easy to relax in. It is a property full of character, thoughtfully improved over the years and ready for its next chapter.
