The Beith Street site in Glasgow’s West End is poised to become a prime Build to Rent (BTR) development, following detailed planning consent granted in June 2023. Math Real Estate Partners and Savills are marketing the 2.4-acre freehold site on behalf of KR Developments, with plans to deliver 424 residential units in a mix of studios, one, two, and three-bedroom apartments and duplexes.

The development will feature four blocks ranging from 11 to 14 storeys, providing a total net lettable area of 258,982 sq ft and a gross internal area of 367,686 sq ft. The site also includes indoor and outdoor amenities such as 48 car parking spaces, 538 sheltered bicycle storage spots, and 50,681 sq ft of amenity space, including roof terraces, landscaped gardens, a gym, residents’ lounge, library, and café.

Strategically located just 300 metres from Partick Interchange Station and 350 metres from the University of Glasgow, the site offers direct links to both Glasgow and Edinburgh. The riverside location along the River Kelvin provides stunning views and is close to student accommodation and residential developments, enhancing its attractiveness.

The area surrounding Beith Street, including Byres Road, Hyndland, and Finnieston, offers a variety of independent leisure and lifestyle amenities, making it an ideal location for a BTR scheme. Positioned within Glasgow’s Innovation Corridor, the site is expected to benefit from the University of Glasgow’s expansion and the wider Riverside Innovation District.

This autumn, the completion of a new footbridge across the River Clyde, connecting Govan and Glasgow Harbour, will further improve the site’s connectivity.

Glasgow’s West End, known for its strong graduate retention rate and growing popularity, makes this development site a valuable investment opportunity.
