Contemporary apartment living in Glasgow The new show apartment at George Wimpey’s Kelvindale Glade development, off Kelvindale Road in Glasgow is now open, and its luxurious specification has been going down well with customers who’re keen to own a slice of life at this contemporary and well-located development.

Kelvindale Glade is within easy travelling distance from the city centre of Glasgow, and offers an exciting choice of two and three bedroom apartments, plus a comprehensive range of three bedroom townhouses – all with a luxurious specification! The 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. Prices currently start from £140,000.

Opening the door to the two bedroom show apartment reveals a spacious and well-proportioned property that’s been carefully and thoughtfully styled to show prospective customers just how comfortable life could be here at Kelvindale Glade.

At the top of the central hallway is the master bedroom and its’ calming crisp white bedlinen with dove grey horizontal stripes. Contemporary flashes are added through a mix of metallic silver, and turquoise velour cushions, that create a sense of luxury in this well-proportioned room which also boasts two fitted double wardrobes for maximum storage. Everyday practicalities are dealt with easily by the en-suite shower room – ensuring there’s no early morning rush for the bathroom in this apartment!

Next door bedroom two is a light, airy double bedroom that also includes a built-in double wardrobe. Sheer white voile curtains maximise the natural daylight into this lovely room, whilst co-ordinating delicate white bedlinen with its’ embroidered pink flowers adds a feminine and relaxing feel. A plump pile of turquoise scatter cushions ensures this is the place to chill-out.

The central hub of the apartment is the well-appointed, open-plan living area that consists of a spacious living room, dining area and contemporary fully-fitted kitchen. Impressive laminate wood flooring throughout this area maximizes the feeling of space, whilst still being practical for each area as you move through.

The kitchen sports one of the hottest looks around. Floor and wall-mounted cupboard with a vertical grain with a high-gloss veneer finish creates a modern edge to the kitchen layout, whilst also adding texture and warmth to this part of the apartment. With ample space for a contemporary steel and glass dining table and four cream leather chairs – buyers will be able to entertain guests in the comfort of their new home!

A plump two-seater cream sofa and two chairs beckon in the spacious living room area. Teamed up with clean vertical stripes of turquoise, grey and metallic silver in both the curtains and the cushions – this will most certainly be the ‘hub’ of this apartment. The beech and glass coffee table plus side tables with their ‘glass-ball’ table lamps continue the overall contemporary flavour of this luxurious place to call home.

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.

“To get our customers on the move, and make the whole process as stress-free as possible, George Wimpey offers a superb range of incentives at Kelvindale Glade that can be tailored to an individual buyers’ requirements.

“Our show apartment has already inspired a number of customers to make Kelvindale Glade their new home this year, and it’s a great time to visit the development - you’ll be impressed by how much we can help.”

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