History
Below left: Linn Park Waterfall Right: Holmwood House Below Right: Snuff Mill Bridge
Originally part of the ancient borough of Govan, Cathcart grew around the banks of the White Cart Water, a gentle tributary of the Clyde mentioned in Robert Burns’ poem, The Gallant Weaver. Today the river is stil l home to hidden gems, like the nearby Snuff Mill Bridge. Close by are two National Trust for Scotland properties – Greenbank Garden, and Holmwood House, one of the most important buildings by Alexander ‘Greek’ Thomson.
Location Ascent is on Greenholme Street, a quiet cul-de-sac close to Holmlea Park and Cathcart railway station. The much larger Linn Park is just a few minutes to the south, and Queens Park Recreation Centre – with facilities for tennis, football and bowls – is around a mile away. There are three popular golf courses within a three-mile radius.
Cathcart has a number of welcoming restaurants and cafés, while neighbouring Battlefield and Shawlands are packed with lively bars and restaurants, and quirky independent shops. Silverburn shopping centre is a short drive away. The area is well served by nurseries, primary and secondary schools, and Clyde College’s Langside campus is just a mile away. The train from Cathcart to Glasgow Central takes as little as 16 minutes, and access to the M74, M77 and M8 is quick and easy.
Site plan The stylish 55 new apartments at Ascent are built over three contemporary four and five-storey blocks within a pleasant, carefully landscaped open space – a focus for relaxed community life – Ascent combines bold contemporary design with a secluded and exclusive atmosphere. Each apartment boasts an excel lent specification and lift access. The two-bedroom apartments also include an al located parking space.

10 great reasons
Distinctly different Every Westpoint development is designed in sympathy with the architectural character and style of its surroundings – so your new home adds to the richness of the community.
You can expect many great things from our new-build homes. Here are just 10 of them. 1. Modern building standards We invest time and resources to take your home beyond the industry standards of construction, design and energy efficiency. * 2. Fixed price The price you see is the price you pay. Al l without the added stress of a closing date, which is often part of the second-hand property buying process. 3. Brand new homes Move in and enjoy, without months of DIY. And if you purchase early in the build stage, you can select your own kitchen, bathroom tiles and paint colours. 4. Designed to suit your lifestyle On average, 17% of the space in older properties lies unused. In a typical £200,000 house, as much as £34,000 could be going to waste.
8. Your guarantees Your Westpoint home comes with the reassurance of the National House Builders’ Council (NHBC) 10 year guarantee. The standards are exacting, and detailed NHBC inspections take place as your new home is being built. Second-hand homes put the burden of repairs on you – the buyer. 9. Building new communities Our locations and designs make the most of streetscapes and landscape areas, lending instant kerb appeal and sense of place. The result is a neighbourhood where you will instantly feel welcome, and that will be equally appealing to buyers, should you ever wish to sell. 10. The personal touch We keep in touch with you at every stage of your build, so you’ll always know the progress of your new home. Our site manager will personally make sure all aspects of your new home are built to our high standards, and that it’s examined at the key stages by an NHBC inspector.
We understand that every home should be unique to its owner. That’s why we offer a dedicated service with our new- homes coordinator assisting you in choosing al l of your finishes throughout which emphatical ly says it’s yours – distinctly yours.
We design your new-build home to provide flexible, usable space – to fit the way you live your life. 5. Safe and secure Your new home’s structure, ventilation, sound insulation, electrical system, gas supply and fire safety are all designed to meet today’s strict building standards. So be assured you and your loved ones are safe and secure. 6. High specification We include many features in the price, such as a high-quality fitted kitchen, appliances from leading manufacturers, cloakrooms, and en-suites to Principal Bedrooms. 7. Energy efficient homes Significant financial savings every year – that is the benefit you can expect from the reduced energy bills in your new home. In fact, new homes are typically six times more energy efficient than older properties, and generate less than 60% of the CO2 – so you are helping to preserve the environment.
* In line with energy efficiency recommendations at the time of build.
