We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
A rare opportunity to acquire a substantial circa 3000 sq ft office premises in the heart of Glasgow City Centre, complemented by pre-application supporting documentation from Glasgow City Council indicating potential for conversion into a residential dwelling.
Situated at 190 West George Street, this immediately impressive red sandstone building occupies a prime position on one of the city’s most sought-after addresses, surrounded by striking period architecture, excellent amenities, and superb transport links.
The accommodation is arranged over basement and elevated ground floor levels and is accessed via a grand arched communal entrance.
The communal areas are particularly well maintained, with regular cleaning and evening lighting enhancing the overall presentation.
The property retains a wealth of traditional character and, when combined with its scale and flexibility, presents an exceptional opportunity for experienced investors or developers.
Notably, the building underwent a full re-roofing in 2022, which remains under warranty.
Subject to the necessary consents, the property offers outstanding potential for conversion into a unique and expansive residential apartment.
The generous proportions and versatile layout lend themselves perfectly to the creation of a luxury city-centre residence, with scope for open-plan living, multiple bedrooms, bathrooms, and elegant public rooms.
West George Street is widely regarded as one of Glasgow’s most desirable locations, offering immediate access to an extensive mix of restaurants, retail shops, and cultural attractions.
The property also benefits from excellent transport connections, with Queen Street Station approximately 0.3 miles away, Sauchiehall Street Subway Station around 0.7 miles away, and a range of bus services available directly on West George Street.
