48-apartment Paisley affordable homes project completed

New apartment in Paisley’s East Lane

THE JR Group has delivered 48 new flats for social rent in Paisley’s East Lane on behalf of Loretto Housing Association, part of Wheatley Group.

The apartments, which include a mix of one and two-bedrooms, have been allocated to tenants and handed over to Loretto. The site was redeveloped following the demolition of the Arnold Clark garage previously located there. The homes include four wheelchair accessible apartments on the ground floor.

Andrew Dallas, projects director at The JR Group, said, “This project is an excellent example of a derelict site turned into a thriving community of affordable homes, helping to address the current urgent need for new, quality homes in the area. It has been a rewarding project to deliver on behalf of Loretto Housing Association, particularly as this is located in The JR Group’s hometown, and we look forward to seeing the new tenants move into their homes.”

Laura Henderson, MD of Loretto, added, “We always want to build homes and communities people are proud to live in. These modern, energy-efficient new homes for social rent are an important boost for the area and will really help improve our tenants’ quality of life.”
