Beautiful Victorian townhouse in Glasgow worth £625k

The B-listed property in Pollokshields dates back to 1870 and is one that rarely appears on the market, providing potential buyers with a unique opportunity to snap up a Southside townhouse.

It has been listed for an asking price of £625,000.

Despite its treasured historic status, the home has been brought back to life with a number of upgrades.

The open-plan living, dining and kitchen area boasts a black marble surround with a wood-burning stove, a marble-topped island, solid hardwood cupboards and feature tiles designed by British painter and designer Peggy Angus. 

The original maid’s room is now a guest bedroom, and the original sweeping staircase and balustrade lead to the first floor. 

There is a full-width bedroom with another marble fire surround - currently being used as a home studio - another double-sized bedroom, and a large, four-piece bathroom with a cast-iron bath. 

A further fixed stair leads to the second floor revealing two further large double bedrooms and a shower room/WC.

Despite the extensive renovations, the home has maintained a number of its original features including ornate plasterwork, exposed timber floorboards, fire surrounds and woodwork. 

The rear garden is fully enclosed and safe for pets and children, while the shared lane behind the terrace has also been recently gated by residents.

Alastair Reid, a partner at Corum Property based at the company’s Shawlands branch, said: “This type of property is seldom seen on the market, particularly such impressive work throughout.

"This quirky property has already received a huge amount of interest.

"There’s been unprecedented demand and we’re not surprised.

“It’s an extremely attractive property: the interiors have been stunningly reimagined, and its enviable location is just a stone’s throw from all of the bustling amnesties in Glasgow’s Southside.”
