Description
Verde, a conversion of the Templeton Factory building, incorporates a façade inspired by the Doge’s Palace in Venice, restored to its original grandeur by Cruden and includes underground parking.
At VERDE you can have the best of both worlds: the hustle and bustle of the city centre and the space and tranquility of the Clyde and Glasgow Green. There are 92 apartments in 13 different styles. But whatever your preference, after a long day's work or a late night out, you'll relish the uninterrupted view from your apartment to the river across the green.
You have a choice of apartments with balconies, wrap-around terraces or enclosed winter gardens to provide shelter from Glasgow's capricious weather.
For the last few years, hip city dwellers have been keeping Glasgow Green to themselves, but now Glasgow's answer to Greenwich Village is emerging as one of the city's trendiest addresses. The most fashionable place to live in the area is, without doubt.
The development's chic Italian name is an indication of the level of luxury and elegant design on offer. With a striking façade built mainly of glass, to harmonise with the intricate glasswork of the nearby People's Palace, this ten storey development forms an eye-catching property landmark on Templeton Street, overlooking Glasgow Green.
Your next-door neighbours include the People’s Palace, the museum which records Glasgow’s past. At the heart of the city, you live in an area steeped in history with the washing poles preserved out on Glasgow Green reminding you of the era of the steamie.
Verde will appeal to a wide range of buyers from young professionals and Glasgow’s bustling student population, to young families who can take advantage of the park on the doorstep.
Verde is situated in the heart of the city’s proposed Commonwealth Games district which will be completely transformed by 2014, not only making Verde a great place to live, but a shrewd investment opportunity. Over the next five years, Glasgow’s East End will undergo a major transformation as the designated area for the 2014 Commonwealth Games. Significant public and private sector investment is already underway to regenerate the banks of the River Clyde from Glasgow Harbour in the West End to Glasgow Green and beyond in the east.

With a famous setting that is intrinsic to Glasgow's heritage and new eateries that are enhancing the city's diverse culture, Verde has every amenity discerning buyers could possibly want right on their doorstep.
The newly opened West Brewing Company, located within the former Templeton Carpet Factory, offers a truly unique Germanic-Scottish eating and drinking experience. With Bavarian beers brewed on-site and delicious German fayre, this stylish bar / restaurant is likely to become most Verde residents' 'local'.
For a wider selection of bars and restaurants, and a host of designer boutiques, the Merchant Cityis a short stroll from Verde.
You are close to Glasgow’s best restaurants, clubs and venues.
You can go for a peaceful stroll in the car park or get your car from the private residential parking below your apartment and drive away from it all.
The development is located to the east of the city centre within walking distance of Glasgow Green, the iconic People’s Palace and the vibrant Merchant City, with walkways along the River Clyde providing easy access to the city the centre itself.

For more unusual finds, including antiques and vintage jewellery, the lively Barras is on the eastern edge of Glasgow Green.
Nowadays you don’t have to go far for modern amenities: the city centre shops are just around the corner.
