Thu, Aug 31st 2006, 14:37

More than 1,000 people registered to see the premier of a West End show-stopper that will not only delight theatre goers but also shopaholics, cultural gurus, nocturnal clubbers and food connoisseurs alike.

.

From this week (Monday, February 13) Redrow has launched Route 1 West, off Anniesland Road, in Anniesland. The development promises to bring new home hunters closer to Glasgow’s thriving West End and its awesome mix of bars, cafés, restaurants, music venues, sport, shops, galleries, theatres and the list goes on.

The new venture will feature a smart collection of contemporary two and three-bedroom apartments and four-bedroom townhouses on the site of the former Anniesland bus station.

Anne Anderson, sales director for Redrow Homes (Scotland), says: “Ahead of the Route 1 West launch the anticipation was phenomenal with more than 1,000 enquiries from home buyers eager to see what the development has to offer – and it certainly won’t disappoint.

“Not only will Route 1 West create a vibrant urban community of first-time buyers, professionals, families and empty nesters with its mix of stylish apartments and contemporary townhouses, the venture will also provide a quick and direct route into the heart of one of Europe’s most culturally rich and celebrated cities.”

Established and growing families will find the space and practical design of Redrow’s four-bedroom townhouses a comfortable retreat but with the fabulous city centre just five miles away if members of the family want to pick-up the pace of life.

The apartments will offer the perfect base for professionals working in the city, first-time buyers, people studying at the nearby Glasgow University or empty nesters looking to downsize to a secure environment and chase the sun abroad but, again, still wanting the excitement of the West End of Glasgow on their doorstep when returning home.

While the location does indeed offer superb access to the trendy and bustling West End with its fashionable collection of global cuisine, trendy bars and traditional pubs centred around Byres Road, there is also the rural oasis of the beautiful Botanical Gardens. The gardens boast stunning Victorian glasshouses within eight acres of relaxing parkland.

Further afield, Loch Lomond, Aberfoyle and the Trossachs are easily accessible for the ultimate countryside escape.

All of Route 1 West’s properties will enjoy the easy to maintain, energy efficient benefits of a brand new home, thanks to features such as PVCu double glazed windows, economical heating and modern standards of insulation.

Prices currently start from circa £174,500 for a generously sized two-bedroom apartment or from circa £315,000 for a four-bedroom townhouse.
