A SIGNIFICANT residential development in Haddington is to be revitalised by an independent property developer following the high-profile collapse of the original housebuilder.
Dundas has confirmed the takeover of 34 plots in the Letham Views development in Haddington which saw sales and construction work grind to a halt after Stewart Milne Homes fell into liquidation.
By stepping into the project, Dundas has committed to delivering high-spec homes that exceed industry standards – with the aim of delivering the final sales completion by May 2025.
The firm is now urging potential buyers who may have reserved a plot with the previous developer to contact them as soon as possible to register their interest.
Craig Fairfoull, Sales & Marketing Director at Dundas, said: “We understand the challenges and uncertainties faced by the prospective homeowners around the history of this site.
“Our primary goal is to make the transition as smooth as possible, and we urge those who had reservations with Stewart Milne for one of these plots to contact us immediately.
“Along with building 34 homes; we are looking at ways in which we can address certain communal issues.
“It is our hope that we can deliver these much-needed homes within 12 months, allowing prospective buyers to finally move into the homes they have been looking forward to.”
The development will see Dundas complete various house types that were akin to those proposed by the previous developer, such as two-bedroom apartments, mid and end terrace homes, and larger detached homes.
Dundas was supported through the acquisition of the site by solicitors Anderson Strathern and administrators Teneo.
In taking on the project, Dundas is building on its recent record in East Lothian, adding to its £35m The Wireworks development located on the banks of the river Esk in Musselburgh.
Dundas, an award-winning and independent Scottish homebuilder, prides itself on crafting homes that enhance the well-being of its occupants.
It emphasises creating inclusive communities and strives to simplify, enrich, and add enjoyment to the home-buying experience.
