Description
Constructed circa 1910 on behalf of John Anderson, Beneffrey Hall is a significant Edwardian villa situated at the head of Springkell Avenue within extensive private established grounds. Designed by William Hunter McNab, the building is finished in dressed stone under a steep pitched and slated roof within a Franco-Scottish style. It was used for many years as Strathclyde University's Halls of Residence prior to conversion into three substantial townhouse-styled conversions.
The west wing offers versatile accommodation over three levels within seven principal apartments. 

Complete accommodation extends to entrance vestibule via storm doors, lower hallway with cloakroom/WC, office and dedicated utility room, formal lounge with focal point neuk fireplace, dining/living room large, living/dining kitchen with direct access to private garden grounds. On the first floor, significant master bedroom with a split level en suite bathroom, bedroom two with WC adjacent, and bedroom three with the main bathroom. A further original stair leads to the second-floor revealing bedroom four, a walk-in wardrobe, eaves storage space, further bathroom and useful sky parlour/attic space. This area lends itself to a highly flexible apartment suited to working from home/cinema room or teenager den with single leaf access door to West facing balcony/parapet.

Specification includes gas central heating, period quarter pane windows, shared use of a basement/utility area/storage and shared use of a detached coach house with WC and washing facilities.
