BELLWAY Homes Ltd (Scotland East) will build 217 new homes at Prestonpans, East Lothian.
The housebuilder has been granted planning permission to develop the properties – 152 for private sale and 65 affordable properties – as an extension of its existing Prince’s Gate development in the growing community of Blindwells.
The new phase will feature two and three-bedroom terrace and semi-detached homes and three, four and five-bedroom detached properties. The affordable homes will include one and two-bedroom cottage flats and two, three and four-bedroom semi-detached and terraced properties.
Lynn Pringle, sales director, Bellway Homes Ltd (Scotland East) said, “In just a matter of a few years Blindwells has transformed from a greenbelt site into a thriving new community with significant infrastructure and space planning to create a contemporary environment for people to live. Blindwells is definitely a destination of choice for people seeing affordable new homes within easy reach of the capital and we’re confident that clients will enjoy the mix of new properties we will have on offer.”
Construction work is expected to start in the summer.
