Property description
Kensington Cottage is a stylish, recently renovated main door lower townhouse conversion with flexible 2/3 bedroom accommodation, private garden area and direct access to the Kensington Gate Lane Pleasure Gardens.
Hidden discreetly behind one of Hyndland's finest red sandstone terraces, Kensington Cottage is one of those rare homes that quietly surprises from the moment the front door opens.
Occupying a peaceful position on the exclusive Kensington Gate Lane, this beautifully renovated main door lower townhouse conversion extends to approximately 1,583 sq ft (147 sq m) and offers remarkably versatile accommodation that can be enjoyed as either an elegant two-bedroom home with generous entertaining spaces or a substantial three-bedroom residence.
Having undergone an extensive programme of sympathetic renovation, the property effortlessly combines contemporary design with period character. The result is a home unlike anything else currently available within Glasgow's West End.
The heart of the home is an extraordinary open-plan kitchen and living space. This impressive room showcases beautifully restored geometric Victorian tiled flooring, a bespoke shaker kitchen finished with quartz worktops and brass ironmongery and a striking contemporary wood-burning stove that creates an exceptional focal point. Whether entertaining friends or enjoying a quiet evening beside the fire, this unique living space offers an atmosphere that is both stylish and welcoming.
A magnificent bay-windowed reception room with feature fireplace provides further flexibility and may equally serve as a luxurious principal bedroom, allowing the accommodation to adapt effortlessly to changing lifestyle requirements with two further generous double bedrooms.
The accommodation is complemented by two beautifully appointed contemporary bathrooms offering both bath and shower facilities, ideal for families and hosting guests.
Practicality has been thoughtfully considered throughout with a separate utility cupboard which houses the washing machine, excellent storage and a substantial wine cellar/cold store.
To complete the accommodation layout there is a charming and generously proportioned sun porch, perfectly suited as a home office, studio or peaceful reading room with fitted desk overlooking the garden. Additionally there is a handy cloak room for shoes and jackets and 3 brand new integrated appliances offering a 2nd fridge for drinks, undercounter freezer and a condenser tumble dryer.
Outside, the property enjoys its own private garden area* while residents also benefit from access to the highly regarded Kensington Gate Lane Gated Pleasure Gardens, a peaceful residents' sanctuary rarely found within the West End.
*The half of the garden closest to the property will belong to the property offered and the half nearest the back gate will belong to the property above.
Further features include gas central heating, residents' permit parking and an enviable location moments from Hyndland's independent cafés, restaurants, boutiques and excellent transport connections.
