Avant Homes Scotland has commenced the third and final construction phase at the Carnethy Heights development in Penicuik, Scotland, UK. 

This phase comprises the construction of 35 energy-efficient family homes on a 16.5-acre site.  

The development’s remaining units are four- and five-bedroom detached houses. 

Once complete, the £60m ($75.96m) Carnethy Heights development will have a total of 165 homes designed for practical living.  

The four-bedroom Ashbury homes are priced at a start range of £374,000 up to £495,000 four-bedroom Westbury homes, featuring a detached garage.  

The Carnethy Heights development, located ten miles south of Edinburgh, offers transport connections to the capital and amenities within walking distance. 

Avant Homes Scotland managing director Jim Wilkinson said: “Carnethy Heights has proven extremely popular from the outset and works are progressing well on phase three. Our practically designed, energy-efficient family properties at the development have been well-received by buyers and we are confident this last phase will be no exception. 

“As a business, we are driven by the desire to deliver quality new homes for everyone and to create vibrant communities where we build.” 

Meanwhile, Avant Homes East Midlands has received approval for a £77.5m residential development in Clifton, Nottingham, England.  

The 24-acre Foxgrove Village site will feature 265 multitenure homes, including one-, two-, three-, four-, and five-bedroom homes. 

It will also comprise 15 of Avant Homes’ energy-efficient house types ranging from terraced to detached and townhouses.  

The development will allocate 20% of its units as affordable homes, with prices to be announced later. 

The latest developments come after the company acquired a 20-acre site in Great Eccleston, UK, from Duchy Homes for its mixed-use development in North West England earlier this month.
