Redrow Homes Press Release

EXPERIENCE life in the lap of luxury at Redrow’s Riverside Point development in Braehead with the launch of a stunning new show home.

The four-bedroom Forth opens its doors to visitors on Saturday 8 March, with a packed programme of events.

Visitors will be treated to pamper sessions in the beautiful surroundings of the property, which has an art nouveau feel, while a chef will be on hand to cook up tasty treats, and there will be the opportunity to consult a mystic.

The stylish three-storey Forth, with integral garage, offers an unusual layout with a modern twist.

The ground floor comprises of a study/bedroom, downstairs cloakroom and a utility room, while the lounge and kitchen/dining room are situated on the first floor.

Moving up to the second floor there are three bedrooms, one with en-suite and a bathroom.

Diana Newton, sales director for Redrow Homes (North West) says: “Three-storey living is becoming a popular choice among homehunters looking for a more flexible lifestyle.

“This stunning property is ideal for people who want to work from home with a study that is completely separate from the living area, and a utility area and cloakroom within easy reach, allowing you to work all day without being disturbed.”

The glamorous and classic show home has been decorated in coral red, creams and ivory with a hint of black

Alphonse Mucha, who was a leading artist of the art nouveau movement in Paris, was a huge inspiration for the design and one of his paintings of a decorative figure forms the basis of a feature wall in the master bedroom and images of his artwork feature throughout.

Diana added: “Prospective buyers will be able to have a look around the beautiful new show home and also take a peek at our glamorous Manhattan-themed show apartment, allowing them to picture life at Riverside Point.”

Riverside Point will eventually comprise 342 new homes, with an array of apartments, two and three-bedroom terrace and semi-detached houses, three and four-bedroom townhouses and four-bedroom detached villas to choose from.

Landscape architects have carefully considered planting with avenues of trees and shrubbed areas and, while homes share the footprint of Redrow’s existing design portfolio, their contemporary exteriors are quite different from the developer’s previous homes in Scotland. 

Current availability from Redrow includes the three-bedroom Lambourne townhouse priced from £210,000 and the four-bedroom Ribble from £249,995, which both have their roof space cleverly converted to create a sumptuous master bedroom and en-suite, and the four-bedroom Forth townhouse at £246,000. There are also two and three-bedroom apartments priced from £148,995.

The area has fantastic local amenities – not least the Braehead shopping and leisure centre and Xscape family entertainments complex which are a stone’s throw from Riverside Point.

The River Clyde is just a short stroll away and families will be attracted by the availability of several nurseries and primary schools in the area, whilst Renfrew High School is within walking distance.

It is also convenient for Glasgow city centre and offers easy access to the M8, linking to the motorway network, and Glasgow International Airport, making it the ideal location for commuters.

The Forth show home and the two-bedroom show apartment will be open from 10am to 5.30pm on Saturday 8 March.

A comprehensively equipped marketing suite is also open at Riverside Point, off Andrew Avenue, daily from 10am to 5.30pm. Visitors can experience the concept of living in this urban village by viewing the model and computer generated DVD and browsing the numerous options packages.
