What to weigh up in Neilston

  • Feasibility depends on the specific property's age and location, confirmed at survey.
  • Newer estate housing on the village's edges tends to have more consistent frontage widths.
Road frontage

A driveway only applies where a property has a private garden or hard standing accessed directly from the street. Tenement flats open onto a shared close or back court and have no road frontage, so they cannot take one. Where frontage exists but no dropped kerb is in place, an application to East Renfrewshire Council is normally the first step. We confirm both at survey.
