Large period family home with garden and garage, close to parks and rail.
Victorian blonde sandstone semi-detached villa with original features
This blonde sandstone semi-detached villa combines Victorian character with generous family accommodation across two levels. High ceilings, bay windows and original cornicing give the principal rooms strong period charm, while a floored attic and spacious room sizes add flexibility for growing families.
Set on a sizeable plot, the property includes a front garden, driveway, rear lawn and patio plus a garage. The ground floor layout features two reception rooms, separate dining room, fitted kitchen and a four-piece family bathroom; upstairs are four bedrooms including two double rooms with fitted storage.
Practical strengths include double glazing, gas central heating and a floored attic; the home offers clear scope for modernising to taste and increasing value. Note: there are reported central heating concerns and some curb appeal works may be needed. Council tax is high and the EPC is D.
Location is a definite draw — close to Shawlands’ cafes, restaurants, parks and good rail links, while Pollok Park and Queen’s Park are within easy walking distance. The wider area is lively and cosmopolitan, with a strong student presence; buyers should weigh the neighbourhood’s vibrancy against the local area’s higher deprivation indicators.
Closing date: Thursday 21st August at 12pm. This property suits families seeking expanded living space with period character and renovation potential in a well-connected Shawlands location.
