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 five-bedroom Jedburgh showhome was opened for viewings last weekend and the style will be available at various plots at Glow Garren.

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.

Currently available to reserve at Glow Garren is the four-bedroom detached Fidra. It too boasts elegant double doors in an open-plan dining-kitchen area, with a separate utility room, garage and formal lounge downstairs. This model is priced from £335,000 and is situated at various plots throughout the development.

The Elmwood and Inverurie are additional four-bedroom options, priced from £325,000 and £375,000, respectively.
