MUIR Timber Systems has delivered timber kits and roof trusses for 44 new affordable homes in Leslie, a village near Glenrothes in Fife.
The properties comprise a mix of detached and semi-detached two, three and four-bedroom houses and amenity bungalows.
The new housing is being built by Campion Homes for Kingdom Housing Association and will feature photovoltaic panels and air source heat pumps in every home. There will also be an ‘expansive’ open amenity space with paths and landscaping backing onto Leslie Golf Course.
The development is expected to be completed in March 2025 and will help to relieve housing demand in the area.
The collaboration between Campion and Muir Timber Systems marks the continuation of a long-standing relationship, with the two organisations having previously worked together on other social housing projects for Kingdom Housing Association in Leuchars.
Gary Gray, general manager of Muir Timber Systems, said, “At our Inverkeithing factory, our experienced team of designers and skilled operatives manufacture timber kits and roof trusses tailored to any specifications. As a proud family-run business, we value our long-standing partnership with another family firm, Campion Homes.
“This new development is progressing well and will offer much-needed social rental homes in Fife. At Muir Timber Systems, we strive to simplify the process for our clients to create homes and communities that enhance lives and endure over time.”
Dougie Herd, joint MD of Campion Homes, added, “We have worked together with Muir Timber Systems on several projects over a number of years and their high quality kits allow us to deliver projects efficiently for our clients. These 44 new homes for Kingdom Housing Association marks another step in combating the housing emergency in Fife and delivering high quality, energy efficient housing for local people.”
