The sales include a disused piece of land at Levenbank, Jamestown, and a site at Burroughs Way in the Vale of Leven Industrial Estate.
At a meeting of the Infrastructure, Regeneration and Economic Development Committee this week, members were told of interested buyers for both plots, as well as smaller sites in Old Kilpatrick and Alexandria.
The Jamestown land, which was extensively marketed in February and March this year, has been bought by Turnberry Homes for circa £5 million.
The housing developer intends to transform the overgrown and unused site into 88 residential units comprising a mix of 2 bedroom apartments; 3 bedroom semi- detached and 4 bedroom detached houses.
The land at Vale of Leven Industrial Estate will be sold to Muirfield Ltd for the sum of £950,000. The company intends to develop the site for warehousing and associated office and laboratories for food and drink production with occupation by their associated Company Tolsta Foods Ltd.
