Affordable home development complete in Kinglassie

Team celebrates new homes in Kinglassie, Fife

KINGDOM Housing Association has welcomed residents to their new homes after completing the development at South of Hill View in Kinglassie, Fife.

The project was a partnership with Quale Homes and has now delivered 45 social rent properties within a wider private development.

The affordable homes include a two-bedroom amenity bungalow and a four-bedroom detached home.

The project provided a jobs boost in the area, with student apprentices employed on-site and work offered to local subcontractors.

Sean Whittet, Kingdom’s development manager, said, “It’s been fantastic to see the completed homes at Kinglassie. At Kingdom, we know the positive impact high-quality, affordable housing has and in the middle of a housing emergency, our new-build programme means we can play a vital part in bringing much-needed housing to Fife.

“These homes are highly energy-efficient to keep householders’ costs down through the ongoing cost-of-living crisis, and we’ve worked closely with our partners to provide efficient, safe and secure homes in our local communities.”

The properties have an energy rating of B. With the total cost reaching nearly £9 million, Kingdom financed 45% of the project, while the Scottish Government provided the remaining 55%.
