  • The Best of Glasgow's West End
    WESTPOINTHOMES.NET 1 2 ONE HYNDLAND AVENUE WESTPOINTHOMES.NET 3 T H E B E S T OF GLASGOW’S WEST END. Hyndland: one of the most exclusive pockets of Glasgow’s already exclusive West End. Where the buildings are beautifully preserved, the streets quieter, the character (and characters) plentiful. This is where you will find One Hyndland Avenue. Discerning buyers have been drawn to Hyndland since the late 1800s. Once farmland, it was the perfect retreat for those who worked in the rapidly expanding second city of the British Empire. Back then, Hyndland was considered the place to be. And over a century later, it is just as desirable – offering the space and escape associated with suburban living, combined with the beating heart and convenience of city life. Hyndland is still home to Glasgow’s great and good. The streets are sheltered from the liveliness of Byres Road – although the West End’s most famous street is just a short walk away. This incredible convenience is also reflected in the travel infrastructure. On your doorstep you’ll find the subway, train station, bus routes and excellent motorway access. A twenty-minute drive takes you to Glasgow Airport – and a further 30 minutes gets you to Edinburgh Airport. Speaking of driving, there is an allocated parking space for each apartment at One Hyndland Avenue – offering West End living without compromise. 4 ONE HYNDLAND AVENUE WESTPOINTHOMES.NET 1 CONVENIENCE, FLEXIBILITY & LUXURY. WEST END LIVING, THE WAY IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN. 2 ONE HYNDLAND AVENUE WESTPOINTHOMES.NET 3 EDWARDIAN PRESTIGE, WITH A MODERN EDGE.
