About
PROPERTY DESCRIPTION This bright and beautifully presented two-bedroom flat occupies a desirable position on Fergus Drive in North Kelvinside.
The property has a lovely mix of traditional character and contemporary styling, with generous proportions, high ceilings and excellent natural light throughout.
Accommodation includes a welcoming hallway, an attractive living room with a large bay window and leafy outlook, two bedrooms, a modern bathroom and a particularly impressive dining kitchen.
The kitchen is finished with dark shaker-style cabinetry, white metro tiling and generous worktop space, while the adjoining dining area provides plenty of room for entertaining.
The warm wooden flooring and simple, considered décor throughout give the flat a relaxed and homely feel.
Fergus Drive is ideally placed for everything the West End has to offer, with the independent cafés, restaurants and shops of Queen Margaret Drive just a few minutes' walk away.
Byres Road and Great Western Road offer an even wider choice of bars, restaurants and amenities, while Glasgow Botanic Gardens, the River Kelvin walkway and the Children's Wood and North Kelvin Meadow are all within easy reach.
The area is also well served for schooling, including North Kelvinside Primary School and Hillhead High School, as well as a number of independent schools nearby.
Regular bus services operate locally, with Kelvinbridge and Hillhead Subway stations providing straightforward connections to the city centre, and the property is also conveniently positioned for the University of Glasgow and the wider West End.
