Property for sale in Alexandria
Alexandria lies on the River Leven, which flows from Loch Lomond into the Firth of Clyde. The town is 4 miles north-west of Dumbarton and 'Goowin doon the Vale' or 'Goowin up the Vale' is how people in the neighbouring villages of Renton, Balloch, Jamestown and Bonhill describe a visit to Alexandria. During the 20th century, the villages merged into one urban area, although each village has retained its own individuality. Alexandria has a population of 15,000 but that increases to 22,000 when all the villages in the conurbation are included.
Property for sale in Alexandria offering 2 or 3 bedrooms is a mix of pre-war and post-war terraced houses; semi-detached and detached houses and bungalows built in the 1960s & '70s; and new-build townhouses and apartment blocks. Estate agents in Alexandria also represent houses offering 4 or more bedrooms including substantial new-build houses and detached, period houses in more rural locations.
