Description
Located in Kensington Road, a sought-after, rarely available Dowanhill address, this charming unique two-bedroom Garden flat offers flexible accommodation over two levels, with own door access to private garden.
This B-Listed building is of historical interest forming part of a sinuous terrace built circa 1900 by Glasgow architect David Barclay. The red sandstone ashlar frontage, including the balustrades, has been extensively restored, and is set in a well-maintained, mature tree-lined south-facing shared garden. Although tucked away in one of the leafiest sections of Dowanhill, it is a 5-minute walk from Hyndland shops and delis; a well-stocked Sainsbury's Local; Caffe Parma; Western Tennis Club; Cuku and Botanic Gardens.
