Following initial viewings, 40 applicants moved to secure some of the 46 stunning waterfront flats.

The mix of one and two-bedroom flats in Ellerslie Street, built in partnership with Cube Housing Association, boast views over the River Clyde.

With monthly rent starting at £430 for a one-bedroom property and £510 for a two-bedroom, each apartment features fitted floor coverings as well as a fully fitted kitchen and bathroom.

Lowther Homes, part of Wheatley Group, owns, lets and manages a portfolio of more than 700 quality homes for mid-market and full-market rent across central Scotland.

Lowther’s director Gillian Lavety said: “These new-build homes are very much in demand.

“Not only do they offer people the option of affordable, quality homes for rent, but they look fantastic and are in a great location.

“The new homes are a wonderful addition to our growing portfolio. They’re part of our plan to provide more affordable homes over the coming years – and to drive up standards in the private rented sector.”

Lowther works with its partner organisations in Wheatley, such as Cube Housing Association, to deliver a combination of services. As a developer, letting agent and property-management specialist, it provides round-the-clock customer care and a 24/7 repairs service through its Glasgow contact centre.

The success of the new homes in Yoker comes swiftly after the first tenants moved into Lowther’s other recently completed flats in Hamilton’s Silver Bell development.
