Keen buyers can now reserve a CHAP Home on the Lochter development in Inverurie, as the north east housebuilder opens its on-site sales cabin.
With construction already underway, the Westhill-headquartered developer has joined local housebuilder Malcolm Allan on the prime 100-acre Lochter site.
The development will ultimately be home to around 450 properties ranging from bungalows to large family homes and commercial premises.
The first residents are expected to be able to move in next spring.
Around ten years in the planning, Lochter is close to the newly-opened Uryside School, with the local academy, the town centre, and a large supermarket and retail park just a short distance away. It is also next to the Ury Riverside Park.
Planning conditions attached to the development included supporting the delivery of the primary school, constructing pedestrian footpaths, and Malcolm Allan Housebuilders also built the link road connecting the B9170 Oldmeldrum road to the B9001 at Rothienorman.
Colin Wood, technical manager at Malcolm Allan Housebuilders said: The Lochter development is a key part of our strategic plan for the long-term expansion of Inverurie to the east of the thriving town centre.
“We are very pleased to have the first homes nearing completion after many years of planning. It’s also exciting to see tree planting and footpath works underway to transform the adjacent Riverside Park area into one of the largest public parks of its kind in the country.
“Within phase one at Lochter, we have introduced our two and three-bedroom Hallforest collection, which offers spacious homes that come packed full of added extras: we look forward to showing people around the first of these homes from next week.”
CHAP Homes will build 53 homes on what it calls its “Crest of Lochter” development, ranging from two, three and four-bedroom detached and semi-detached houses. Prices start from £199,990. Malcolm Allan is building bungalows and two and three-bedroom semi-detached homes during phase one with prices starting from £210,000.
Karen Davidson CHAP Homes sales supervisor said: “Inverurie, just 30 minutes’ drive from Aberdeen, offers the best of both worlds: the hustle and bustle of living in a thriving town with great amenities, surrounded by stunning countryside.”
