The Old Schoolhouse – Napiershall Street
Harmonising old and new has never been easy, but The Old Schoolhouse has achieved that balance. The traditional 1890s school building, with its original architectural features, now sits alongside a striking contemporary addition, creating a distinctive residential community in Glasgow’s West End.
Once a thriving school before later serving as offices, the former campus has been thoughtfully transformed into 49 high quality homes. The development comprises 24 apartments within the beautifully restored four storey school building and 25 homes in a contemporary L shaped new build, blending heritage with modern design.
Residents now enjoy a range of carefully designed communal spaces, including raised planters and herb gardens, children’s play areas and a generous picnic lawn. Crowning the development is a spectacular rooftop garden, providing space for outdoor dining, socialising, exercise and relaxation, all with panoramic views across the city.
The Old Schoolhouse stands as a successful regeneration project, breathing new life into a historic landmark while creating a vibrant community for homeowners in one of Glasgow’s most sought after neighbourhoods.
