Massive period apartment in the heart of Glasgow’s shopping and dining quarter..
• Over 2,000 sq ft of living space in a single apartment
• B‑listed Victorian red sandstone building, built 1899
• Principal bedroom with dressing area and en suite
• High ceilings, large sash windows, original character features
• Secure entry with lift access; gas central heating throughout
• Listed status will restrict alterations and add consent complexity
• Very slow broadband; council tax band H (very expensive)
• On‑street metered parking only; cosmopolitan student neighbourhood
Set within a B‑listed Victorian red sandstone building on West George Street, this exceptionally large second‑floor apartment blends period character with contemporary living. At just over 2,000 sq ft the adaptable layout features high ceilings, large sash windows, original architectural detail and a long, re‑fitted kitchen — a rare central‑city home with true living space.
The principal suite includes a generous dressing area and en suite; two further double bedrooms and a five‑piece main bathroom complete the accommodation. Practical comforts include gas central heating, secure entry, and both lift and stair access. The apartment benefits from excellent mobile signal and immediate access to Glasgow’s retail, dining and transport hubs — ideal for someone wanting city‑centre lifestyle and rental demand.
Buyers should note material constraints: the property’s listed status will restrict external and some internal alterations and may complicate permission processes. Broadband speeds are very slow and council tax is band H — very expensive. Parking is on‑street only and the surrounding area is classified as very deprived and as a cosmopolitan student neighbourhood, which affects local ambience and longer‑term resale dynamics.
This is a strong choice for purchasers prioritising scale, period detail and central convenience — whether seeking a distinctive full‑time city residence or a centrally located investment with good letting demand. Be prepared for listed‑building considerations, higher running costs and modern connectivity upgrades.
