Why local knowledge matters
Unlike other Lanarkshire towns within commuting distance of Glasgow, such as Cumbernauld and East Kilbride, both Coatbridge and Airdrie have a long history, being known for the heavy industry that once dominated the area. As a result, there is a diversity of property in Coatbridge and Airdrie, from large Victorian homes to small two storey tenements to modern flat blocks and semi-detached houses.
Coatbridge and Airdrie are neighbours, connected by the small former village of Coatdyke (today part of Coatbridge) and are eight and 12 miles respectively from central Glasgow. The area’s industrial past (Coatbridge is commonly known as the “Iron Burgh”) has bequeathed an abundance of train lines and stations, meaning the towns are exceptionally well-connected to Scotland’s largest city. Coatbridge alone has seven different stations, across three different lines, connecting it to Glasgow. Coatbridge is also well-known for Drumpellier Country Park, an attractive expanse of woodland with a loch that is within easy walking distance of the town. Airdrie boasts extensive leisure services and a well preserved main street.
