5 bed terraced house for sale

Annfield Place, Dennistoun, Glasgow G31

Details

Located on the prestigious Annfield Place, this exceptional b-listed 19th-century townhouse, one of the earliest homes constructed within the historic suburb of Dennistoun, represents a rare opportunity to acquire a truly substantial period residence of considerable scale and distinction. Extending to an impressive 282 sq. M (3,035 sq. Ft.), the property has been comprehensively restored and refurbished throughout, retaining the character and proportions of its period architecture while providing the space, specification and versatility required for modern family living. Arranged over three principal levels, the house provides seven flexible apartments, complemented by private parking and enclosed front and rear gardens.

Essentially a new home within a traditional skin, the house has been subject to an exhaustive programme of restoration and refurbishment in recent months, with considerable attention given to both its underlying fabric and its presentation. The works have included a complete rewire and replumb, extensive replastering, replacement double-glazed windows and the installation of a new gas-fired central heating system. Throughout, fresh decorative tones are complemented by premium floor coverings, while the newly fitted kitchen and utility room, contemporary sanitary ware within all four beautifully appointed bathrooms and a wealth of carefully retained period detailing create a particularly impressive balance between old and new. Original features including ornate cornicing, traditional woodwork and period doors have been sympathetically restored, preserving the architectural character and sense of history that give the house its considerable presence.

The accommodation begins with a private vestibule opening into a grand and welcoming reception hallway, where generous proportions, excellent storage and the original staircase immediately convey the scale of the property. The formal lounge is an especially impressive principal apartment, enjoying large windows and an attractive outlook across the central residents' gardens to the front. To the rear, a formal dining room, which could equally serve as a further sitting room, overlooks the garden through a series of large windows and sits alongside a dining-sized kitchen, complete with pantry cupboard and walk-in store. A separate utility room provides direct access to the rear garden, while a beautifully finished shower room completes the ground-floor accommodation.

The first floor provides three generously proportioned bedrooms, with the second bedroom benefiting from its own en-suite shower room, together with a magnificent family bathroom. Continuing to the second floor, there are two further bedrooms, a useful box room and a well-appointed shower room, creating a highly versatile arrangement of accommodation capable of adapting readily to the needs of a modern family, home working or multi-generational living.

Externally, the property is equally well considered. The gardens have been designed with ease of maintenance in mind, with the rear garden incorporating an extensive timber-decked area that provides an excellent setting for outdoor dining and relaxation. Particularly noteworthy is the provision of off-street parking for three cars, a rare and highly desirable feature for a substantial townhouse in this sought-after part of Dennistoun.

The property is centrally positioned within the highly popular Dennistoun district and sits just over a mile away from Glasgow City Centre providing easy access to Strathclyde University, Glasgow Royal Infirmary and City Centre businesses and shopping. Locally, there is schooling at both primary and secondary levels, recreational pursuits including a public swimming pool, gymnasium, park, library and much more. A variety of local day-to-day shops are within walking distance along with a range of restaurants, cafes, and bars. Public transport includes bus and rail links to Glasgow and Edinburgh City Centres together with excellent access to the central belt motorway network.
