Apartments with style in the city

27th July 2007 Print
Luxury apartments with space to live, space to relax and space to enjoy, but still within close proximity to the City, may seem like a dream home. But take a look at Barratt West Scotland's luxury apartments at Western Gate in Anniesland, The Laurels in Rutherglen or Kings Court in Paisley and you could turn your dream home into reality.

Barratt's luxury 2 or 3 bedroom apartments at these developments certainly tick all the right boxes - and there are some great Deals on offer.

Located in a prime area of the City, work has started at Western Gate just off Great Western Road at Knightswood in Glasgow and has already generated a lot of interest. When work on the former church hall site is completed, it will provide 40, one and two bedroom homes on this prestigious City development.

With its close proximity to Glasgow's West End, residents can take advantage of the attractions that it brings, including Art galleries, botanic gardens, coffee houses and restraints giving the space to live and relax but still within close proximity to the City centre.

Prices for 2 bedroom luxury apartments start from £178,250. Further information on this prestigious development is available at Barratthomes.co.uk/westerngate.

The development at Kings Court in Paisley, Barratt West Scotland's latest £17.8million development on the site of a former haulage yard, has seen a dozen apartments being sold before the sales office opened. The 2.21 acre development consists of 1, 2 and 3 bedroom high specification apartments in an area within easy commuting distance of the City and Glasgow airport.

Says Stuart: "Paisley is often underestimated in terms of its size and importance. As Scotland’s fifth largest population centre, slightly ahead of East Kilbride, it’s the country’s largest non-city, having narrowly missed out on achieving city status in 2001, but irrespective of its official title, Paisley’s 75,000 residents continue to take advantage of the area’s many amenities and facilities."

One of these is Glasgow Airport, which is much closer to Paisley than its title would suggest, and the international freight and passenger travel has brought considerable benefits to the local economy and infrastructure. The same is true of Paisley’s University, with the main campus situated just a short stroll from the town’s attractive open-air shopping precinct.

Every year, thousands of young academics spend term-time expanding their knowledge in this famous seat of learning, before descending on the town centre to take advantage of the many pubs, bars and restaurants which have flourished here in recent times.

The sales office on the Kings Court development is open Saturday and Sunday only, from 11 a.m. to 5 30 p.m. Alternatively, visit Barratthomes.co.uk.

Also in the area are Park Gardens, Barratt's latest development in Elderslie, where only three homes remain to be sold. This development includes the 3 bedroom Maple apartments - and they're selling fast.
