George Wimpey announces a new kid on the block

George Wimpey West Scotland's latest development to open - Kelvindale Glade - features a choice of executive one, two and three bedroom apartments, as well as five styles of three bedroom, three storey townhouses in the popular and peaceful suburb of Kelvindale. Prices currently start from £145,000.

Kelvindale Glade is within an easy travelling distance from the city centre of Glasgow, and offers an impressive choice of apartment styles, sizes and layouts, plus a comprehensive range of three bedroom townhouses - all with a luxurious specification! This development also boasts a quiet, waterside location with the River Kelvin, the Forth and Clyde canals and their peaceful waterways and walkways just a few minutes from the development.

Kelvindale itself benefits from a good transport infrastructure with the M8 (junction 17) just four miles away taking you into the heart of the city centre. The local train stations at Kelvindale, Summerston or Maryhill are all just a short drive away the development, and offer a regular service into Glasgow's Queen Street station - a regional hub for services to the rest of Scotland and beyond. Plus a good bus network offers a great way to get round the local area.

Kelvindale is a well-established and desirable suburb of Glasgow as Michelle Logie, sales and marketing director for George Wimpey West Scotland adds: "There's a fashionable collection of shops, restaurants, and bars within minutes of our Kelvindale Glade development, whilst the popular West End is also close by. This area is already a popular and sought-after location and appeals to a wide range of customers, plus the good mix of primary, secondary and further education available locally make Kelvindale a popular location for families.

"Plus, buyers at Kelvindale Glade will get more than a New Year hand-shake, as we've extended our generous offer to pay the ‘Home Report' costs on a customers' existing property if they buy a new George Wimpey home by 31 January 2009. This extra-special New Year bonus is in addition to the support already available to customers taking advantage of George Wimpey's Easymover Scheme.

"We've also improved our Easymover Scheme for 2009 and for those customers who reserve a new home, we will provide a whole host of benefits that are specifically tailored to remove all the worry and stress of selling a property to make their dream move a reality.

“We will not only pay the estate agency set up and selling fees, contribute £500 towards legal fees and £500 towards advertising as per our original Easymover Scheme, but we have added a secure benefit to the scheme. So if your existing property does not sell on the open market within an agreed marketing period George Wimpey will guarantee to buy your property at an agreed valuation price. It's a great time to visit Kelvindale Glade to find out more."

Kelvindale Glade is open Thursday to Monday from 10am-5pm. For more information visit Georgewimpey.co.uk.
