Stunning flat in Glasgow's west end on sale for £159,000 - and the decor is incredible

You know by now we like to indulge in a bit of west end fantasy living.

So let's get stuck in with this beauty.

Best Glasgow uni accent at the ready: "This flaaaaat is perfect."

Seriously though it is. And despite the Hyndland Road location being peak west end, a daft accent is certainly not mandatory if you are thinking of buying it.

And, shockingly, neither is an astronomical lump of cash.

Usually you have to pay an arm and a leg to live in the leafy west end. But this one is less than £200,000. Not exactly pocket-change we admit, but certainly a lot more affordable than most west end properties.

So what's inside?

This stunning sandstone end terrace was designed by none other than Alexander Thomson -  a prized architect here in Glasgow - in 1871 and is a truly gorgeous pile of bricks.

It may have been built as a mansion for wealthy westenders, but these days it’s separated into flats. Still, you won’t exactly be short of space.

This one bedroom property comes with a fabulous open plan lounge and dining area, double bedroom and three piece bathroom.

Our big question is - can we keep all the furniture?

There is no garden but you're just a hop skip and a jump from the lush greenery of the Botanic Gardens. And, with a flat this stunning, we would probably never step foot outside again.

So there you have it, an iconic postcode set in a stunning building designed by one of Glasgow's best architects for less than £200,000.

The owners are looking for offers over £159,000 - and yes, we don’t exactly have it in our back pockets either - but for the flat is in perfect condition and the postcode is truly unbeatable.

Maybe our west end fantasy isn't such a pipe dream after all...

Anyone up for loaning us some cash?
