This two-floor, one-bedroom apartment within the converted Dalry Congregational Church is only a 5-minute walk from Haymarket train station. Stain-glass windows and vaulted ceilings meet high-end furnishings and modern fittings in this one-of-a-kind property. Available 2nd July 2024.
The highlight of the property is the kitchen-dining room with its impressive nine-section stain-glass window. This colourful feature, which formed part of the original church, allows light to flood into this room. The kitchen area itself has a modern look and includes all the appliances expected in a high-end rental, such as a washer dryer, dishwasher, electric oven, gas hob, fridge and freezer. There is an abundance of countertop space and cupboard storage. The floor space is also generous, giving plenty of room for the dining area.
The shower room also has a sleek look. The shower cubicle itself is large and surrounded by wet wall panelling for easy cleaning. There is also a heated towel rail and a LED mirror above the washbasin.
The bedroom is a good size with carpeted floors and LED spotlights. It has an impressive fitted wardrobe space and a double-glazed arched window overlooking the peaceful Richmond Terrace.
The living room is upstairs. The tall ceilings, complete with original beams (forming part of the church's vaulted ceiling), in this room really add to the feeling of space. There is also an additional view of the stained-glass windows from above. Inbuilt shelving (ideal for books, ornaments or a drink collection), loft access and an understairs utility cupboard mean that there is lots of storage in the part of the property.
The property is heated through gas central heating using a combi-boiler, helping to maximise energy efficiency.
While being located on a quiet back street, this stunning apartment is still ideally located for amenities. There are both large Lidl and Co-op supermarkets within a few minutes' walk of the main door. The local neighbourhood itself is also buzzing with character. There are several independent eateries, trendy coffee shops, boutique delis and traditional pubs within a few minutes of the property. For the fitness conscious, the Victorian baths at the Dalry Swim Centre are only 2 minutes away and the Nuffield Health Gym at Fountain Park is only 5 minutes away. Fountain Park is also home to various big-name restaurants, a casino, a cinema, a bowling alley and indoor crazy golf. For those looking to escape the city, the Union Canal is also close by for a scenic bike ride or stroll, as is Harrison Park - a perfect place for a picnic or a game of football on a sunny day.
It is also in a perfect location for commuters. Haymarket train station is only a short walk away, allowing for easy inter-city connections to Glasgow and further afield. Trams and buses also run regularly from Haymarket, heading both east into the city centre and west to the airport. The city centre can also be accessed by foot in under 20 minutes.
