What to weigh up in West End

  • Tenement flats in Hyndland, Partick and Dowanhill have no private road frontage.
  • Villa properties further out typically have space for a driveway and are the area's main source of enquiries.
Road frontage

A driveway only applies where a property has a private garden or hard standing accessed directly from the street. Tenement flats open onto a shared close or back court and have no road frontage, so they cannot take one. Where frontage exists but no dropped kerb is in place, an application to Glasgow City Council is normally the first step. We confirm both at survey.
