Summary - FLAT 8, CALEDONIAN MANSIONS, 7, OTAGO STREET, GLASGOW G12 8JJ
3 bed 1 bath Flat
Spacious three‑bedroom Victorian flat in Kelvinbridge with strong rental appeal and period charm.
A‑listed Victorian mansion block, designed circa 1898
Set within one of the West End’s most iconic red sandstone mansion blocks, this three-bedroom first-floor flat combines generous room proportions and genuine period character. The impressive 18'3" lounge, high ceilings and sash/bay windows give the apartment an airy, classic feel that suits professionals, students and buy-to-let purchasers alike. The property extends to about 1,119 sq ft and benefits from gas central heating and strong broadband/mobile connectivity.
Location is a key strength: Kelvinbridge Underground and a wide range of cafés, shops, and university facilities are all within easy walking distance, supporting rental demand and commuter convenience. The layout includes a large reception room, three double bedrooms, a family-sized dining kitchen and one bathroom, making it adaptable for sharers or a family.
Buyers should note important constraints. The building is A-listed, which preserves historic features but will constrain alterations and can complicate maintenance and consent for repairs. The building’s communal upkeep of a substantial stone mansion block can lead to higher costs and administrative complexity. The flat has a single bathroom and will likely need some modernisation to maximise rental or resale value.
Additional practical considerations: tenure is freehold for the flat, flood risk is low, and council tax is above average. The surrounding ward is classified as very deprived, which may affect long-term capital growth but supports steady rental demand from students and commuters. This is a character-rich property best suited to buyers who value location and period features and who accept listed-building responsibilities and potential refurbishment work.
