MAC Mic Group has obtained planning approval from Glasgow City Council for a new Build-to-Rent (BTR) development in Anniesland, subject to Section 75 Agreement.
The development, on the edge of Glasgow’s West End, will transform the former Job Centre site into a ‘vibrant and sustainable’ community, providing 113 new one and two-bedroom apartments.
The circa £26 million GDV residential Brownfield development will create apartments set across a pair of five to seven-storey buildings. The site will include amenity and co-working spaces, roof terraces, private landscaped courtyards, communal gardens, private balconies, gym, car changing spaces, car club spaces and cycle parking.
Mac Mic Group described the location as ‘ideal’ for a high-quality, residential development that will support the local economy by creating jobs and bringing residential footfall to retail and leisure without increasing car traffic.
Bruce Hampton, regional land director – Scotland at Mac Mic Group, said, “We are thrilled to have secured planning approval for this exciting project. We are committed to playing our part in delivering high-quality homes that meet the needs of local residents, enhancing this popular West End neighbourhood.
“This is a perfect example of a project that aligns with National Planning Policy and delivers on objectives for sustainable local living. On behalf of Mac Mic Group, I would like to thank the project team for their outstanding work and commitment in bringing this project to this stage.”
The project team includes Calmont Ventures Ltd, Elder and Cannon, ICENI Projects, Goodson Engineers, Mason Evans Partnerships, Carbon Futures, LDA Design, Wild Surveys, and Atelier 10.
