David Wilson Homes
The Botanics, the luxury development from David Wilson Homes in Glasgow, has proved exceptionally popular with families, young professionals and downsizers alike. In the heart of Glasgow’s West End and set within the grounds of the former BBC Scotland headquarters, the development is a collection of 94 unique apartments and townhouses, many of which benefit from stunning views over the River Kelvin.
To date, half of the 75 apartments have been sold with the third block recently released to keep up with demand. And for those looking for a quick move, two apartments at The Botanics are available to move into now. The first is the Gerbera, priced from £335,000. On the fourth floor of Block A, this is an attractive t wo-bedroom apartment, with both bedrooms double rooms. It also benefits from a spacious utility room and the use of a private balcony off the living/dining/kitchen area.
The second is the Freesia, priced from £355,000 and sitting on the third floor of Block A. The living/dining/kitchen enjoys use of a balcony whilst the two double bedrooms offer even more space. With a separate utility area and storage in the hall, it has plenty of space for you to make the most of.
The apartments in Block B will be ready to move into later this spring, meaning you can make the move to the West End in time to enjoy the better weather and all the outdoor activities the area has to offer.
Meanwhile, more than a quarter of the townhouses at The Botanics have been sold. A stylish option for buyers looking for a spacious home in an urban location, all of the townhouses come with outdoor living space – terraces and balconies – and ample car parking space.
At The Botanics, there are three types of townhouses. The first is the Acer, an exceptional home with a sitting/cinema room, ensuites to each of the four bedrooms, private terraces to three levels and space for up to four cars. The first floor has a large
kitchen/dining/family area which opens out onto the main terrace.
The Iris is an exquisite four-bedroom townhouse split over four levels. Featuring a sitting/cinema room, living room and separate kitchen/dining room, this beautiful home offers you plenty of scope for both relaxation and entertaining opportunities. Each of the four bedrooms benefit from an ensuite and three of the four floors feature a terrace.
Finally, the Aloe is a stunning three-bedroom home split over four levels. The second floor hosts a master suite featuring a bedroom, sitting room, ensuite and walk-in wardrobe. Moving down the Aloe you will find a further two double bedrooms with ensuites, a kitchen/dining room, a sitting/cinema room – and four parking spaces.
While the homes at The Botanics are of the finest quality, the entire development is elevated by its unrivalled location. The nearby Byres Road and Great Western Road boast some of Glasgow’s finest bars, restaurants and cafés, not to mention a large Waitrose supermarket, as well as an M&S Simply Food.
The development takes its name from the Botanic Gardens, which is located just a short distance away. Here, you can while away the hours in beautiful surroundings, or venture to Kelvingrove Park to enjoy a leisurely stroll or open air entertainment at the bandstand.
And for families with young children, living at The Botanics means you will be minutes from some of the finest schools in the country, including the prestigious Glasgow Academy, The High School of Glasgow and Kelvinside Academy.
Prices at The Botanics range from £355,000 to £899,000.
