30 flats to be built on disused land on Cleveden Road in Glasgow’s west end

It has been confirmed that land at 97 Cleveden Road in the west end will soon be home to 30 new flats with space for parking cars and bikes.

The address was the, now demolished, Rannoch House Care Home, and sold in late 2021. Now Adam Scotland and Hirst landscape architects have been appointed NVDC Architects to design the range of two and three bedroom flats. The flats will have private terraces and balconies and a shared amenity space to the rear. There will also be 38 parking spaces and 38 cycle bays.

Of the development, the architects said: "Our sensitively proposed materiality and detailing have been chosen and designed to respect and complement the cultural context of Kelvinside House and the nearby Glasgow West Conservation Area. The ground floor level of the facade is clad with blonde natural stone, whilst the facade materiality to the upper levels is blonde brick.

"This layout of a bold formal material arrangement to the street level and a more inconspicuous repetitive arrangement to the upper floors is reminiscent of traditional tenement facade layouts, where the ground floor responds directly to the street scene."
