Formerly a Carmelite Convent set well back from the aptly named Mansionhouse Road behind high walls, the B-listed building was at risk of deteriorating until it was saved and developed into 13 bespoke apartments by Westpoint Homes in 2012. The location, which offers a rare blend of leafy tranquility with excellent amenities to hand, is one of the most sought after in the south side of Glasgow, while the walled, three-acre garden setting gives residents a beautifully landscaped space and includes a private allocated parking space and the option of an allotment.
Newly on the market within this iconic building is a second floor apartment with luxuriously appointed accommodation spanning around 1,100 square feet on one level.
Accessed via a visually striking communal atrium and carpeted staircase, the interior boasts high ceilings and traditional room proportions and includes a good-sized hallway leading to an impressive 22ft bay-windowed living room, large open-plan dining kitchen fitted with integrated appliances, and two double bedrooms – one with in-built storage positioned next to the main bath/shower room off the hall; the other principal bedroom forming a suite with a separate dressing room and en suite bathroom.
The property also has a security door entry system and is positioned within walking distance of amenities on Millbrae Road and Langside Place, including the recently renovated eatery Church on the Hill. Offers over £269,000 are invited by Corum’s Shawlands office.
