Persimmon Homes - Sycamore Park, G53

Development info

• Site plan

Sycamore Park is our brand-new development, well-located in the hugely popular suburban area of Darnley. We'll be offering a mix of two, three, four and five-bedroom houses, suitable for families and first-time buyers.

This area, just 7 miles south of Glasgow city centre, enjoys the benefit of being close to one of the main routes into the city, the M77. As a long-standing and popular residential area, Darnley is well-served for shops, supermarkets and retail parks. You'll have everything you need close to hand, with the extra treat of regular train services into Glasgow Central taking around half an hour, for museums, galleries, restaurants and a vibrant nightlife.

In complete contrast and for a change of scenery, you can step into the peaceful surroundings of the Dams to Darnley Country Park – it'll be right on your doorstep from Sycamore Park and is a fabulous asset to the area.
