Barratt have begun work to transform Scottish Power’s former Cathcart home into a new residential community following relocation of the utilities giant to a purpose-built city centre HQ.

Branded Riverside @ Cathcart the new development will include a mix of flats and town houses, detached and semi-detached homes; re-using key features such as boundary walls and making use of a retained sundial as the centrepiece of a new entrance square.

Estelle Sykes, sales director at Barratt West Developments said, “The re-development of the former Scottish Power headquarters will see us rid the site of expanses of surface car parking, while being careful to retain a lot of the original trees. We will make some serious public space improvements and we will be bringing a selection of quality homes to the area.
 
“One of the key design elements of the new site will be a ‘western boulevard’ that will be lined with newly planted trees and the framed by the three storey townhouses – we expect this to be a very popular area of The Riverside @ Cathcart. The homes that sit alongside Cathcart House will have some spectacular views across Glasgow, as well as private gardens to enjoy. There will also be some detached homes that sit along the border of White Cart Water, these will be perfect for house hunters that would like to wake up to the soothing noise of the river.”
 
The development will be formally launched in March.
