Set within a handsome red sandstone tenement on Hyndland Road, this substantial top-floor three-bedroom apartment offers generous living space (approximately 1,282 sq ft) and striking period character. High ceilings, large bay windows and leafy views toward mature trees and Glasgow University spires create a bright, quietly private home in the heart of the West End. The accommodation includes a broad hall with storage, a bay-window living room with feature fireplace, a large dining kitchen with pantry, three double bedrooms, an ensuite principal and a bespoke main bathroom.
Practical conveniences are well provided: the building is factored with secure entry, communal cleaning and a buildings insurance policy; there is a shared rear garden and refuse storage; mobile signal is excellent and broadband speeds are fast. Its location is a major draw — under half a mile from Byres Road, within easy walking distance of Hyndland Road and Clarence Drive cafés, restaurants, shops and public transport, and close to Glasgow University and other West End amenities.
Buyers should note a few material considerations. The property is top/third floor—access involves stair flights and may not suit anyone requiring lift access. The building is a period tenement in a very deprived area classification, and communal upkeep is managed via a factor (ongoing factoring costs apply). Historic red sandstone tenements can present localized issues such as potential damp; interested parties should arrange a survey to confirm condition and maintenance needs. Council tax sits above average (Band E).
Overall, this is a spacious, characterful West End apartment that will appeal to families, professionals and investors seeking sizable, well-located accommodation with period charm and excellent local amenities. The combination of scale, natural light and a peaceful, leafy outlook makes it a rare top-floor find close to the city’s cultural and academic heart.
