Taylor Wimpey have commenced works on 69 new affordable homes within our Calderwood development. They will provide a mix of two and three-bedroom homes for social rent, which will be available for future customers of Home Group Scotland.
The overall masterplan at Calderwood incorporates a design that aims to create a sense of place and maximises the latest Scottish Government Planning Policy for ‘Designing Places’ where it aims to integrate with the local area. The development also makes significant contributions towards providing additional local education capacity including the delivery of the new Calderwood Primary School, as well as local transport improvements that are part of Section 75 legal agreement between lead developer Stirling Developments and West Lothian Council.
Sandra Brydon, director of Home Group Scotland, said: “We’re delighted to be working with Taylor Wimpey on our first development in West Lothian. The mix of two and three bedroom houses will offer customers affordable living in this popular area – something that has been in demand for a while – and I’m excited to see their development.”
Pauline Mills, land and planning director at Taylor Wimpey East Scotland, said: “We are so pleased that working together with Home Group Scotland to deliver 69 affordable homes is progressing so well. It marks another milestone on the journey towards creating a diverse place to call home that complements the existing local community of Calderwood.
