Bellway's coastal retreat

Bellway Homes Ltd (Scotland West) has released the final phase of coastal homes in the picturesque seaside town of Helensburgh.

Situated off Cardross Road leading into the town, Alder Gate’s elevated outlook provides stunning views across the Firth of Clyde towards Inverclyde.

This popular resort offers a great location for families seeking an active outdoor lifestyle with lots of leisure activities close by, from swimming to sailing, as well as good schools and a regular train service to Glasgow.

The final release of properties includes the Hanbury, a three bedroom mid-terrace home ideal for first time buyers, three different styles of four bedroom homes, and the five bedroom detached Sunningdale, complete with a generous kitchen/dining/family area, a utility, cloakroom, separate living room and integral double garage.  The master bedroom includes an ensuite, fitted wardrobe and Juliet balcony.

Prices range from £242,995 for the Hanbury to £494,995 for the Sunningdale.   However, Bellway is currently offering up to £20,000 cashback on selected properties reserved during January.

Pauline Coates, Sales Director, Bellway Homes Ltd (Scotland West) said, “Helensburgh has grown in popularity as a residential location in recent years and enjoyed significant investment in its town centre.  Last year it was named by the Daily Telegraph within the top 25 places to raise a family and was the only Scottish location to make the list.  It’s easy to see why as there’s lots of outdoor pursuits to enjoy as well as good schools and a varied independent High Street.

“Alder Gate is already a vibrant community, with lots of different property styles available and it’s a great time to take advantage of our financial offer.”

Located in a beautiful, quiet setting within easy reach of both Glasgow and the Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park, this tranquil development will feature 107 homes on completion.

Known as the Garden City of the Clyde, Helensburgh is also famed for its historic buildings including the Charles Rennie Mackintosh masterpiece The Hill House, The White House designed by Baillie Scott and Red Towers by William Leiper.

There are four golf courses in the Helensburgh and Lomond area and lots of walks along the front as well as exploring Hermitage Park with over 11 acres of formal gardens, a pavilion, children’s play park, and commemorative statue of John Logie Baird, Helensburgh’s most famous resident and inventor of television. Popular walking routes in the area include the 34 mile long Three Loch Way which passes through the town.

The attractions of Glasgow city centre can be reached in around 45 minutes by car via the M8 motorway, while the nearest train station is within walking distance.

Families are well catered for as well, with excellent primary schools and a popular secondary, Hermitage Academy just a few minutes’ walk from Alder Gate. The town is also served by Lomond School, an independent day and boarding school.  

The showhomes and sales office is open from 10am-7pm on a Thursday, 10am-5pm on a Friday, 11am-5pm on a Saturday and Sunday and from 10am until 5pm on a Monday.  Further information is available by calling 01436 584 461 or visit www.bellway.co.uk.
