Making tracks in Blackridge

With work on track for the new Bathgate-Airdrie railway line moving forward, the £300 million route linking West Lothian and North Lanarkshire is well underway, so it’s a great time for house-hunters in the commuter villages along the route, like Blackridge in West Lothian, to get in early and buy now.

Sandwiched between the new proposed stations of Armadale on the east, and Caldercruix on the west, customers buying a new home in Blackridge are well-placed to take advantage of the overall regeneration and transformation of the area.

George Wimpey is one of the first house-builders to bring a range of quality new homes to Blackridge, and the sales office at the company’s Ailsa Gardens on Drummond Place in the village has seen a very positive response from the local property market to the range, style and quality of homes available as Mary Cooney, sales executive at Ailsa Gardens explains:

“Since opening at Ailsa Gardens, the majority of our homes have been sold to local families who’re keen to be part of the bigger picture that’s planned for Blackridge and the wider West Lothian area. Buyers are impressed by the modern and contemporary designs we offer.”

“Ailsa Garden’s handy location just a short drive to the M8 for travel to the east or west means a relatively short commute whichever way you need to travel – making this development a central location to set up home. Plus the views that many of our homes will have at this development are stunning – on a clear day you can see Lanark and Airdrie to the west and the Lothians to the east, and lots of beautiful open country-side. It’s well worth checking us out!”

With just a total of 29 practical and modern three and four bedroom family homes in a wide selection of styles available, these homes are going fast, so interested customers are advised to get in early.

Plus there’s an added incentive to get in early for customers who visit the development as they will benefit from the company’s enhanced Easymover scheme when reserving before 31 March, 2008. This means that George Wimpey will sell your property for you and pay all the costs associated with your move.

The scheme brings an excellent prospect to purchasers at this time of year. Not only does the Easymover scheme relieve customers of all costs associated with buying a house, including their stamp duty and legal costs, but more importantly the company will pack up all of your belongings and pay for a removal company to transport everything for you.

Prices currently start from £139,000 for three bedroom family homes. For more information visit Georgewimpey.co.uk.
