Development site
The site at Birkmyre Avenue is an elevated residential development opportunity, offering views northwards towards the Firth of Clyde. The site was previously occupied by commercial buildings, which have since been demolished. The site extends to approximately 0.71 acres (0.29 hectares).
Planning permission was previously granted for the development of ten houses and six flats. The section of the site intended for the flats, which is situated towards the southern part of the site, has since been sold. The remaining planning consent provides for one detached four-bedroom house, together with nine terraced houses arranged across two blocks. These comprise seven three-bedroom homes and two two-bedroom homes. Full planning permission can be reviewed on Inverclyde Council website under planning reference: IC/06/237R.
The site is situated on the eastern side of Birkmyre Avenue, a short distance from its junction with Lilybank Road and to the south of Port Glasgow town centre. The surrounding area is predominantly residential, with Port Glasgow Bowling Club located next to the site. Port Glasgow is located within the Inverclyde area of Scotland, approximately 23 miles west of Glasgow and 5 miles southeast of Greenock. The town is well connected to Glasgow via the A/M8 motorway network. With a population of approximately 14,000, Port Glasgow provides a range of shopping, leisure and community facilities. A number of primary and secondary schools, as well as further education facilities, are also available within the surrounding area.
