CALA Homes (West) is inviting the Lochwinnoch community to attend a consultation event to learn more about proposals to create a new residential development at Burnfoot Road and share their feedback.

The first of two public consultation events will be held on 12 September between 1-7pm at the McKillop Institute, Main Street, Lochwinnoch.

The housebuilder hopes to deliver 100 new homes including 75 for private sale, comprised of three-bedroom terraced and four and five-bedroom detached properties. A further 25 affordable homes would complement the housing mix.

The site is allocated for housing within the Renfrewshire Local Development Plan 2021. Alongside the project team, Cala has designed the site to feature ‘generous’ green space, a play area, a village green and active travel routes.

Gillian Hessett, land manger at Cala Homes, said, “We’re really looking forward to welcoming local people to learn more about our exciting proposals for new housing in Lochwinnoch that will importantly boost the number of private and affordable homes available in the area. The event is an opportunity for attendees to meet with our expert project team, ask questions and share their feedback that will be used to refine proposals as we progress towards submission of a planning application to Renfrewshire Council.”
