Prince Albert Road, Dowanhill, Glasgow, G12 9JX

A genuinely unique and beautifully presented three bedroom ground and first floor duplex conversion forming part of Holmhurst, a distinguished Category B listed detached blonde sandstone Italianate villa dating from around 1865.

Discreetly positioned on the corner of Prince Albert Road and Victoria Circus, and screened by a curtain of mature trees, Holmhurst enjoys a wonderfully peaceful and private setting in the very heart of Dowanhill.

The building was thoughtfully extended in 1894 by the noted Scottish architect John Cunningham, with this charming rear annex forming part of that later addition, seamlessly complementing the original villa.

Approached by a sweeping gravel driveway through beautifully maintained mature gardens, the property occupies a particularly secluded position to the rear of the building, enjoying a remarkable sense of peace and privacy despite its exceptionally central West End setting.

This home is beautifully presented throughout and enjoys generous proportions, excellent natural light and a tranquil atmosphere.

Leafy outlooks around the surrounding communal gardens create an almost secluded and rural feel; right in the heart of the city.

Fresh neutral decoration, tasteful finishes and a practical spaced out arrangement, make for a home equally suited to professionals, “downsizers” and those seeking an exceptional West End location.

Residents also benefit from valuable off street parking within the grounds, together with access to on street permit parking. The living room is a wonderfully inviting space.

A broad five section bay window frames delightful views and draws the surrounding greenery into the room, reinforcing this home’s feel of seclusion and creating a fabulous setting for living.

Open to a contemporary kitchen with island, the arrangement works exceptionally well for modern lifestyles, providing a sociable and versatile space.

There are two generously proportioned double bedrooms, both peaceful and enjoying pleasant garden outlooks.

The principal bedroom is easily accessible at ground floor level, whilst the second bedroom offers exceptional versatility, lending itself equally well as guest accommodation, a home office or an additional sitting room depending upon individual requirements.

A third bedroom is currently arranged as a single room with “wall to wall” integrated wardrobes.

Dowanhill is regarded as one of Glasgow’s most desirable residential districts, celebrated for its magnificent Victorian architecture, peaceful tree lined streets and outstanding convenience to the best of the West End.

Holmhurst occupies a discreet yet highly central position, only a short walk from Byres Road, the Botanic Gardens and the University of Glasgow, together with an excellent selection of independent cafés, acclaimed restaurants and boutique shops.

Excellent public transport links are readily available, whilst leading independent schools including The Glasgow Academy and Kelvinside Academy are within easy reach.

This outstanding conversion represents a rare opportunity to acquire an entirely individual home within one of the West End’s most prestigious addresses.
