Buying in Moodiesburn
Moodiesburn is a semi-rural town in North Lanarkshire, of roughly 6,900 residents. The town sits along the A80 road, separated from joining with Chryston by the Bothlin Burn otherwise it would have likely formed a contiguous border with it by now. Despite the separation, it is still just about a mile and a half away and by car is something like a 4-minute to 5-minute drive for most residents. Moodiesburn is well connected by good transport links and benefits from proximity to quite a few nearby towns for example Muirhead (2 miles), Gartcosh (under 3 miles), Stepps (about 3.5 miles), Kirkintilloch and Lenzie (about 4 miles), Cumbernauld (6 miles), and Glasgow city centre is just 8 miles away too. With a combination of modern housing, good schools, and access to both urban and rural attractions, Moodiesburn provides a well-balanced lifestyle for those looking to settle somewhere quiet yet well connected with plenty of employment opportunities.
Originally a small village, Moodiesburn developed significantly in the 20th century with the expansion of coal mining and industry. The nearby Auchengeich Colliery was once a major employer in the area, though tragically, it was the site of Scotland’s worst post-war mining disaster in 1959. Since the decline of heavy industry.
In recent years, there has been steady housing expansion, with new-build estates catering to first-time buyers, families, and those looking for more affordable alternatives to Glasgow’s property market. Moodiesburn has transformed into a residential commuter settlement, attracting more new housing developments and modern amenities to support its growing population.
As mentioned, Moodiesburn benefits from good transport links and it sits adjacent to the M80 motorway, providing quick access to Glasgow, Stirling, and beyond. The A80 also serves the town, linking it efficiently to Cumbernauld and Kirkintilloch. Regular bus services also operate to Glasgow, Cumbernauld, and Coatbridge. While Moodiesburn itself does not have a train station, nearby stations include Croy station and Lenzie station both offering direct rail services to Glasgow and Edinburgh.
