Features and description
Location
Glasgow is Scotland's largest city, with a population in excess of 600,000. The city is well served by rail and vehicular links, with 2 mainline train stations and motorway links to the rest of Scotland via the M8/80 and M73/74.
The subjects are located upon Ashley Street within the Woodlands area of Glasgow to the west of the City Centre. The former school building was built in 1875 and designed by H & D Barclay architects and originally housed the Albany Academy. Whilst this area was originally a residential area, there were a number of properties converted to office use over the years but now these last remaining offices are being converted back to residential use. The property is Category 'B' Listed and located within the Woodlands Conservation Area. Ashley Street is located to the West of Glasgow City Centre and on the southern side of Great Western Road.
The property is well located for all amenities offered within Glasgow's west end and also offers good means of access to main road networks with Great Western Road and Junction 18 of M8 Motorway a short distance away. St. George's Cross underground station is only a 5 minute walk from the property.
Description
The subjects comprise a Category 'B' Listed former school building now used as a learning and conference centre arranged over basement, ground, mezzanine, first floor and attic. The building is constructed of blonde ashlar sandstone and is estimated to be approximately 149 years old. After lying unused for many years the former Woodside Public School was refurbished in 1999 and opened as a Gaelic Primary School in April 2000. The Gaelic Primary School vacated the premises in 2006 and is now occupied by the gcvs Learning and Conference Centre. The building occupies a corner site with Grant Street and Carnarvon Street. A hard landscaped area is present to the front and south of the site with cycle parking / storage accessed from Ashley Street and private car parking accessed from Carnarvon Street.
The property would be suitable for a number of alternative uses. The property could be converted to multiple dwellings subject to planning consent. The property benefits from high ceilings, decorative cornicing, large windows and spacious entrance halls. These features make the opportunity to convert the property to residential use an appealing proposition. To the front and side there is private car parking which can accommodate up to 14 cars.
