AVANT Homes West Scotland has started construction on a £72 million, 280-home development in Armadale, West Lothian.

Called Honeyman Park and located off West Main Street, the 17-acre site will comprise a mix of two, three, four and five-bedroom properties. It will feature 12 of Avant Homes’ house types.

Of the 280 homes, a third have been designated as affordable housing. Avant Homes has also committed to a community contribution of £3.7 million to support education and local services, and a sustainable travel plan.

Avant Homes West Scotland anticipates it will release the first homes for sale in March and that the first residents will move in during June.

Avant Homes West Scotland regional MD Jim Wilkinson said, “Work is progressing well at Honeyman Park and we are looking forward to delivering a wide variety of quality new homes for everyone. As a multi-tenure housebuilder, we want to create vibrant communities and make owning a new home as accessible to as many people as possible wherever they are on their home buying journey.”

Avant previously developed and sold out a £21 million, 110-home development in Armadale called Ellis Vale.
