Miller Homes is launching a “highly anticipated” three-bedroom Urquhart showhome at its new Millerbank development in Clydebank. 

The new neighbourhood, which is already over 60% sold, has been designed to be in keeping with the industrial heritage of Clydebank and features “contemporary dark brick-work”.

Launching on Saturday April 30, the showhome is described as "the jewel in the crown" at Millerbank.

Interior designer Eileen Kesson has transformed the home to show buyers the possibilities.

She said: “Miller Homes’ showhomes are designed to inspire and delight buyers so they can see all the creative options when buying a new build home.

“This Urquhart showhome embodies the lavish Hollywood glamour trend. Here we’ve used a great mixture of neutral tones and glittery textures to create a delicate flow through the home from the moment you set foot through the door.”
