Area Johnstone Enjoying a prime central location in Johnstone, the property enjoys easy access to the A737, which conveniently connects to the central motorway network. Glasgow city centre can be reached in around twenty minutes, whilst Glasgow International Airport is less than a ten-minute drive away. The train station (a short walk from the property) provides regular services into Glasgow and Paisley, and is on the main Ayr line towards the West. Whilst Braehead Shopping Centre offers extensive retail and leisure opportunities, Johnstone itself still retains many traditional independent shops, a few larger stores, a variety of bars and restaurants, and a community sports hub, with a swimming pool and a gym. Johnstone’s town centre was designed on a formal grid pattern and the original layout, featuring two civic squares, has been extensively restored in recent years. As well as easy and fast commuting, the town offers swift access to the countryside and the scenic Ayrshire coast. Both primary and secondary schooling are found in the area, with independent options available in Glasgow.
