A DEVELOPMENT of six flats with private gym is being proposed for a gap site in the Blythswood area of the city centre.

An application for an apartment block at the junction of Sauchiehall Lane and Blythswood Street has been submitted to planners by Videre Developments.

A design statement included with planning documents explains: “The ambition is to create a thriving, vibrant place where people want to live.

“The upper levels of the development will provide six homes and a key priority for Videre is to ensure that these homes will offer a better choice and quality of urban living.

“Each apartment will be dual aspect, with two bedrooms and two bathrooms, for four persons.”

It continues: “Five of the apartments will be provided with a private external amenity space. The top floor apartment has the benefit of having direct access to the roof level and a large private terrace.

“Each apartment has a large open plan living space, offering flexible layouts and opportunity to create a home working area.

“Residents’ amenity space is also provided at the ground floor in the form of a gym.”

The application is pending assessment by Glasgow City officials.
