The Wireworks, a luxury apartment development by Dundas Estates located on the former Brunton Wireworks site in Musselburgh, has been shortlisted for Apartment Development of the Year at the Scottish Home Awards 2026, recognising it as one of Scotland’s leading residential developments.
This latest accolade builds on The Wireworks’ growing reputation for delivering high-quality homes, following its previous success in winning Apartment of the Year at the 2024 Herald Property Awards.
Designed with a strong emphasis on sustainability, quality and heritage, The Wireworks has impressed judges with its thoughtful approach to modern living. The development carefully balances contemporary design with respect for the site’s industrial past, creating a distinctive and characterful place to live.
Each apartment features high-quality specifications, including Hive-controlled heating, Porcelanosa bathroom tiling and premium appliances, ensuring residents benefit from both comfort and efficiency. Sustainability has been a key priority throughout, with features such as electric vehicle charging and high-performance insulation helping to future-proof homes for years to come.
Craig Fairfoull, Sales and Marketing Director at Dundas, said: “The Wireworks has been a standout project for Dundas. From the outset, our goal was to create a vibrant community where people genuinely want to live. This vision has shaped every aspect of the development, from thoughtfully landscaped green spaces that encourage outdoor living, to bright, open-plan apartments and strong sustainability credentials.
