New builds: Welcoming warm glow lights up Hamilton

Housebuilder Lovell Homes has opened the doors to its latest five-bedroom detached showhome on the site of a former lighting factory in South Lanarkshire.

Hamilton-based development Glow Garren pays homage to heritage of its location, where Signify – formerly Philips – was part of the local community for more than 70 years before closing in 2019.

Lovell Homes will build 163 new homes at the development, with 40 being affordable options.

The Jedburgh’s spacious ground floor caters for flexible family living, with a large formal lounge featuring French doors which lead directly to an open-plan dining-kitchen space.

Double doors here open out onto a landscaped back garden, making it a super spot for al fresco entertaining.

The design type also has an integrated single garage, utility room, WC and storage.

Upstairs, bedrooms one and two are ensuite, the other pair are of a good size, while the fifth smaller bedroom could easi;y be transformed into an office or study.

John McGill, a director atLovell, says: “These fabulous properties – both inside and out –are beautifully stylish with a modern look and design. They provide a rare opportunity to buy a home in [Hamilton], and are perfect for families and first-time buyers looking to move to an attractive, contemporary development with a rich history.

“With great access to local amenities, there is a fantastic chance to be part of an incredibly welcoming community in one of Scotland’s most well-connected towns.”

Glow Garren would be a great move for commuters to Glasgow, with the centre of the city just a 12-mile drive away, and Hamilton railway station offering train journeys to Glasgow Central Station that take just a half-hour.

There are also plenty of nearby attractions to provide fantastic days out including Strathclyde Country Park and the 500-acre Chatelherault Country Park, which was built in 1732 as a hunting lodge and summer house for the Dukes of Hamilton, and where visitors can visit the remains of Cadzow Castle.
