Developer stages a sale in two cities
Showhome productions near Glasgow and in Edinburgh are sure to attract the crowds, says Sarah Devine
One of Scotland’s biggest homebuilders has put two showhomes aimed at househunters looking to buy in the country’s two largest cities onto the market simultaneously.
Miller Homes rarely has two show properties available for sale at the same time, but is now offering one situated eight miles west of Glasgow and another on the southern edge of the Capital – and both come fullydecorated, complete with premium fixtures and fittings.
The four-bedroom Grant is a detached villa available at Miller Homes’ Edgelaw development close to Edinburgh City Bypass.
The showhome has been professionally laid out, with inspiration taken from the city, by interior designer Graeme Fuller, and covers an impressive 1,346sq ft of floor space.
On the ground floor is a spacious formal lounge with a south-facing bay window, which ensures the room is filled with daylight.
Across the hallway is a dedicated study or office space, and a WC and storage are also on this level.
To the rear of the ground floor is the heart of the home, an open-plan kitchen, dining and family space. It could form a great hub for relaxing or entertaining with elegant French doors opening to a landscaped back garden as well as double doors to the house type’s lounge.
A separate laundry room also provides access to the driveway where there is a separate garage.
Upstairs, the Grant’s principal bedroom is generously sized and boasts a large integrated wardrobe and ensuite. With the three other bedrooms also doubles, this property, priced at £444,995, would make an ideal home for growing families and those seeking to upsize.
At Clydebank, west of Glasgow, Miller’s three-bedroom Urquhart design showhome has been decorated by Eileen Kesson of Envision and pays homage to the industrial heritage of the town.
There is a feature canopy above the entrance and a separate kitchen to the front of the ground floor. This level’s open-plan dining and living space features double doors to the garden and, upstairs, the principal bedroom features built-in wardrobes.
Bedroom three would be suitable as sleeping quarters for children or for use as a home office.
The family bathroom features Ideal Standard’s white sanitaryware and Porcelanosa tiles.
Peter Thomson, managing director of Miller Homes Scotland, says: “These showhomes are situated in two of the most in popular areas in Scotland, offering buyers the rare chance to move into professionally decorated homes in walk-in condition.”
“Edgelaw and Millerbank are two fantastic communities, popular with buyers, so we expect demand for these showhomes to be very high and would encourage buyers to act fast.”
On Edinburgh’s Lasswade Road, the Edgelaw development offers a selection of three, four and fivebedroom homes, while Millerbank is a new neighbourhood of energyefficient three-bedroom homes in the heart of Clydebank.
Both properties will be available to move into next summer.
