A contemporary development of one, two and four-bedroom apartments.
Cottonyards is a landmark development situated on Old Rutherglen Road, within the popular area of New Gorbals, just south of the River Clyde. The historic Twomax building will be converted into beautiful one, two and four-bedroom apartments, with a new adjoining building that houses stylish one and two-bedroom apartments. Cottonyards is located less than a mile from Glasgow city centre yet has an abundance of green open space to enjoy within the neighbourhood. With the development boasting a beautiful central courtyard, the Gorbals Rose Garden located just across the street, and Glasgow Green a mere ten minutes walk away.

The Gorbals
FROM TENEMENTS TO TOWER BLOCKS
The Gorbals dates from at least 1285 when it was a single-street village to the south of the River Clyde. The district was acquired by the Elphinstone family in 1571 and made into a ‘Burgh of Barony and Regality’ in 1607. In 1790, the Gorbals village became the property of Glasgow Town Council and became a trendy place for those who wished to leave the old city centre. Elegant new suburbs such as Hutchesontown were developed with tenements in a modern street grid system. From the 17th century through to the 19th century, coal was mined in the area and the Gorbals became active in trades such as weaving and metal working to name but a few. By the turn of the 20th century, many tenements had become overcrowded and families were rehoused within modern high-rise tower blocks or New Towns.

The Twomax Building FROM HUTCHESONTOWN TO HARRODS
Dating from the early 1820s, the Twomax factory is the oldest surviving building in Hutchesontown, both a vestige of Glasgow’s textile industry and a symbol of the city’s cultural heritage. Originally a cotton spinning mill, it became a clothing factory during the late-nineteenth century. When the mill became vacant in the 1920s, Twomax, a fashionable knitwear company, moved in for the next 60 years. Co-owned by Hugh McClure and his brother-in-law, Donald McIntosh (the two Macs), the Twomax brand was sold in high-end department stores such as Selfridges, Harrods, and House of Fraser. In 1954, the factory employed at least five hundred female workers.

The New Gorbals FROM LOCAL DELIGHTS TO LATE NIGHTS
The New Gorbals is a highly sought-after neighbourhood with a thriving local community. Located a short distance from Glasgow’s city centre, more and more people are choosing to live in this thoughtfully re-established area south of the River Clyde. The local area is well served with amenities including a sports and leisure centre, a new health centre, nurseries, primary and high schools, a library, local shops and the Crown Street Retail Park which houses big-name retailers as well as a variety of popular food and drink venues. All of central Glasgow is within easy reach of Cottonyards. Directly over the River Clyde, Argyle Street station connects the North Clyde lines at Partick with Rutherglen in the southeast of the city, while Glasgow Central terminus is only a mile away. Along with numerous bus transport links, the Bridge Street Subway is conveniently located in nearby Laurieston.

Glasgow Green & Merchant City
FROM PARK RUNS TO PAVEMENT CAFÉS
Having undergone a renaissance in recent years, Glasgow Green, the oldest park in the city, is not merely a pleasant place for a leisurely stroll. Home to spectacular landmarks such as the People’s Palace and Winter Gardens, the park also has a lively events schedule, hosting major events such as the TRNSMT music festival, the annual Great Scottish Run and the World Pipe band Championships. The Merchant City is one of Glasgow’s most stylish areas with an abundance of bars, restaurants and shops housed in beautifully restored Victorian buildings. Fashion aficionados love the Italian Centre with its designer labels and European-style pavement cafes, while others flock to the courtyard of the Merchant Square for the nightlife, live sports, weekend craft fairs and special events.

Glasgow FROM QUALITY LIVING TO QUICK GETAWAYS
As the largest city in Scotland with a lively student population, Glasgow has a vibrant atmosphere that’s hard to beat. With world-class shopping and nightlife, museums and galleries, and a thriving independent arts scene, it’s no wonder Glasgow is such a desirable city to live in. The wider area is served by numerous local sports centres which boast an array of facilities including gyms and swimming pools, tennis courts and five-a-side pitches. The city has links to the M77, M74 and M8 motorways, with access to the breathtaking scenery of Loch Lomond in less than an hour’s drive. Similarly, Glasgow Airport is only a short car or bus ride away with direct flights to and from destinations across the globe.

Distinctly Different For over 30 years, we’ve been building homes of the highest quality – using the finest materials and superior craftsmanship.
10 Great Reasons
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. All 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. 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. We design your new-build home to provide flexible, usable space – to fit the way you live your life.
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.
We understand that every home should be unique to its owner. That’s why we offer a dedicated service with our Sales Consultant assisting you in choosing all of your finishes throughout which emphatically says it’s yours – distinctly yours.
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 that 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 CO 2 – so you are helping to preserve the environment.
8. YOUR GUARANTEES Your Westpoint home comes with the reassurance of the National House Builders Council (NHBC) 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.
*In line with energy efficiency recommendations at time of build.
