Within Glasgow’s vibrant West End is a stylish new development comprising 35 energy efficient open-plan apartments built by Westpoint Homes.
The outer façade of the Quarter West scheme in Burgh Hall Street is aesthetically pleasing thanks to the choice of bricks – Ivanhoe Cream, manufactured by the UK’s leading brick manufacturer Ibstock.
The 1, 2 and 3 bed apartments offer a modern urban lifestyle within the fashionable heart of Partick.
Stephen Macfarlane, Ibstock’s Northern Regional Sales Manager, commented: “Quarter West is an exceptional development that enables residents to benefit from a wonderful location within easy reach of Glasgow’s city centre. The accommodation is sympathetically designed and incorporates many internal features, including modern energy efficient appliances and systems
“The use of original Ivanhoe Cream frogged facing bricks provides an uplifting outer façade which brings character and charm. Designed with aesthetics and kerb appeal in mind, this brick combines timeless beauty with the rugged resilience needed for long-lasting performance. It is ostensibly cream in colour, with some multi-colour tones and a light texture.”
The ground floor 1-bed apartments range from 595 sq. ft. to 639 sq. ft and benefit from private front gardens. The 2-bed properties offer between 734 sq. ft. and 883 sq. ft. of living space, and some come with private front and rear gardens. Each principal bedroom has an en-suite bathroom.
The penthouse apartments comprise 2 and 3 bed accommodation, with ensuite bathrooms. Each has a private rooftop terrace, with the largest, which extends to 1134 sq. ft, providing a private dual aspect rooftop.
The installation of effective energy efficient systems within the apartments has been a key element of the internal specification of the apartments with the development complying with the exacting Silver Active building regulations and Gold for carbon emissions, which goes well beyond the standard benchmark requirements.
All apartments are heated with a high-performance combination boiler with Flue Gas Heat Recovery unit. In addition, solar photovoltaic panels will be installed on the roof to help reduce with electrical running costs of communal elements.
Other energy saving elements include all wash hand basin taps and showers will be fitted with flow limiters to reduce water consumption, and smart meters will be fitted as standard for both gas and electricity.
