Property description

Hugo Boss, Ralph Lauren, Jamie Oliver and the GPO Building, be part of Glasgow's glitterati. Must be seen to be appreciated, this super-stylish duplex pad has been furnished and decorated to the very highest of specifications.

The GPO building has had a rich and deep history spanning 130 years. Designed by Robert Matheson and opened in 1878, the General Post Office in Glasgow immediately became the largest post office building in Scotland.
Only the second building in the city to have electricity (after St Enoch Station), this address has always been at the cutting edge and this follows through to state of the art security and stylish functional design. The Royal Mail moved out in 1995 and went to its new home in St Rollox. This half of the building was developed in 2001 as apartments, leaving the GPO as it stands today with luxury homes in various configurations.

Occupying one of Glasgow's best locations on the southern corner of George Square, the apartments share the building with some of the country's finest designer outlets including Hugo Boss and Ralph Lauren, whle Jamie Olivers acclaimed Italian restaurant occupies the side on the square. Accross George Square is Glasgow Queen Street Station with an abundance of transport links including trains, buses and taxis to make getting around the city easy. For drivers, the M8 motorway network is just up the road with an estimated journey time of 45 minute to Edinburgh by car. Buses run along St Vincent Street taking tenants frequently to the west end and other areas.

Enter the building through the plush, fingerprint entry vestibule, pass the on hand concierge and take the stairs or elevator to the 2nd floor where this fantastic property sits. Inside, a large reception hallway with storage is floored with beautiful natural oak and provides access to all rooms, including the second floor master suite. The south facing lounge has the highest of ceilings and is beautifully appointed and bright with oak hardwood flooring, neutral decor and huge double windows bringing in the very best of the light throughout the day. You will notice the home is extremely quiet, even though the bustle of Glasgows 'style mile', Ingram Street, lies below. Furnished with a modern, uber-stylish corner leather sofa and coffee table, and with handsome standard lamps lighting up the space, everything is of the very best quality.

The kitchen, nestled to the rear of the stunning open plan living space is fully equipped with all high spec integrated appliances and ample work and storage space, with a breakfast bar and stools. An ultra modern graphite/carbon style kitchen sink, and sleek worktops add to the look and feel. The carpeted bedroom to the front of the home is fully furnished with brand new items and has built in wardrobes saving on extra storage clutter.

Take the stairs up to the master mezzanine suite, a stunning, generous space looking over the open plan lounge and south into the city. A brand new double bed, bedside tables and lamps have been added, with a vast amount of built in storage for the discerning fashionista. Luxuriously carpeted and with direct access to the upper floor entrance, you will have an exquisite ensuite bathroom which is as generously sized as the family bathroom with white thee piece suite and separate shower cubicle, with modern tiled splash areas throughout. The family bathroom is very well appointed with three piece suite and separate shower cubicle, with modern tiled splash areas and large mirror.

The heating is a state-of-the-art electric central system which will be light on bills, however with modern insulation coupled with the greenhouse effect of the large original windows, you are unlikely to need it.

This building is one of our city centre's favourites. Book your viewing today, and be one of the first to have a look at this wonderful city home.
