Barshaw House Blairmore Avenue

Located in one of Paisley’s landmark buildings, this two-bedroom apartment is everything you would expect it to be.

Barshaw House has a fascinating history. First built in the late 18th century, it was extended by a prominent Paisley family in the 1860s and again in the 1880s. Sold to Paisley Town Council in 1911, the property was used as a hospital during the Great War. It then took on the role of a hospital in many guises before being developed into luxury apartments by a local builder in the late 1990s.

This particular property benefits from an outstanding layout. You enter the property into a large entrance vestibule and then into the welcoming reception hallway, with all apartments accessed from here.

The south-facing lounge benefits from a large bay window, and the sheer size of the room is very impressive, measuring over 22 feet in length and 17 feet in width.

There are two impressive bedrooms, both east-facing, which would have formed the morning room in the original layout. Both bedrooms benefit from dual-aspect windows and generous storage space, while the primary bedroom also benefits from a handy en-suite.

The kitchen/dining room enjoys wall and floor-mounted units, along with plenty of space for a dining table.

The fully tiled family bathroom benefits from a shower over the bath.

Completing the property is fantastic cupboard space, with two storage cupboards located at the front entrance and several large cupboards within the hallway.

Further benefits include gas central heating, double glazing and off-street parking.

Located within the sought-after locale of Ralston, you are well placed for accessing all local amenities, including a regular bus service into Paisley town centre and Glasgow city centre. The property is also within the catchment areas for Ralston Primary School and Paisley Grammar School.

Hawkhead railway station provides services to Glasgow city centre, with alternative services available from Gilmour Street Station. The property is also a short journey from the M8 motorway, providing easy access to Glasgow International Airport, Braehead Retail Park and Glasgow city centre.
