About this property
Soaring Ceilings, Southern Light & Mezzanine Living - An Exceptional David Stow Apartment.
There are apartments that impress through their specification, and others that stand out because they are genuinely different. This exceptional third-floor home within the landmark David Stow Building at Jordanhill Park manages to do both.
One of the most distinctive apartments within this magnificent former college building, the property combines soaring proportions, wonderful natural light and remarkable period character with the luxurious finish expected from Cala Homes. Its magnificent double-height living space and fabulous mezzanine bedroom create an almost loft-like feel rarely found in Glasgow's West End, resulting in a home that is stylish, individual and full of architectural interest.
The David Stow Building forms one of the centrepieces of Jordanhill Park, Cala's prestigious transformation of the former Jordanhill College campus. Rather than losing the character of this imposing historic building, its conversion has celebrated its scale and architectural heritage, creating a collection of highly individual homes behind its handsome period façade. Original character and grand proportions are complemented by beautifully finished communal areas, lift access and all the comforts expected of a luxury modern development.
Lift access leads to the third floor, where the apartment opens into a welcoming entrance hallway with a useful storage cupboard. From here, the accommodation unfolds dramatically into an outstanding L-shaped open-plan lounge, dining room and kitchen.
This is quite simply a spectacular living space.
Four large south-facing windows stretch across the front of the apartment, flooding the interior with natural light throughout the day, while the magnificent double-height ceiling creates an extraordinary sense of volume. The combination of height, light and scale gives the room a real wow factor from the moment you enter.
The kitchen is beautifully integrated into the room and finished to the high standard associated with Cala, with an excellent range of quality wall and floor-mounted units together with integrated appliances. There is ample space for a dining table, flowing seamlessly into a generous sitting area to create a superb setting for everyday living and entertaining.
Despite the bedroom occupying the mezzanine level above, the clever design means it is remarkably discreet when viewed from the main living area. This allows the room to retain its sense of openness and grandeur while providing a surprising degree of privacy between the two levels.
Completing the main floor is a luxurious shower room finished with a fresh white three-piece suite. Contemporary fittings are complemented by subtle period-inspired detailing, including the particularly attractive wash-hand basin with chrome supporting legs - a fitting nod to the heritage of the building.
A staircase rises to the fabulous mezzanine level, where the spacious double bedroom provides another wonderfully individual feature of the home. Glazed panels allow views across the dramatic living space below and, importantly, allow the natural light from the four south-facing windows to continue into the bedroom.
There is excellent fitted wardrobe space, while the bedroom also benefits from its own beautifully appointed en-suite bathroom with a fresh white three-piece suite, creating a wonderfully private upper-level retreat.
Further benefits include a designated parking space with EV Charger, lift access and beautifully maintained communal areas.
Beyond the apartment itself, Jordanhill Park provides a setting that is difficult to replicate anywhere else in Glasgow. Residents can enjoy the extensive landscaped grounds and acres of open green space surrounding the development, giving an almost parkland feel while remaining within easy reach of the heart of the West End.
Jordanhill, Broomhill, Hyndland and the wider West End are all readily accessible, providing an outstanding selection of cafés, restaurants, independent shops and amenities, together with excellent transport connections.
For buyers searching for a conventional one-bedroom apartment, there are plenty to choose from. For those looking for something altogether more memorable - double-height ceilings, remarkable natural light, a mezzanine bedroom, historic architecture and a luxury Cala finish - this is a genuinely special proposition within one of the West End's most impressive developments.
