Flat in Glasgow tenement Charles Rennie Mackintosh grew up in for sale

A flat within a Glasgow tenement that Charles Rennie Mackintosh grew up in has gone up for sale.

The fabulous one bedroom, south facing, apartment is nestled at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac on Firpark Terrace in Dennistoun.

Mackintosh lived in the tenement building from 1875 to 1892, and spent his formative years sketching the nearby Necropolis from his window.

The unique property boasts stunning views of Glasgow from every window, with beautiful period features, from intricate cornicing to original wooden floors.

The flat is also ready for someone to move in and enjoy straight away, having been renovated less than five years ago, with everything from new double-glazed windows to a new kitchen.

Located only minutes from the vibrant Duke Street, the location offers a wide range of shops, independent delis, cafes, and award-winning restaurants while boasting excellent bus, road, and rail links close to hand.

Dennistoun Village is within walking distance of major employers such as the University of Strathclyde and Glasgow Royal Infirmary, and attractive public green spaces such as Alexandra Park, Glasgow Green, and the Necropolis.
