Midlothian Housing Development Sells Out

Construction News Image
Buyers have clamoured for the latest homes at Midlothian's Mayburn Park, with the development now officially sold out.

The 90th and final home was purchased at the site, which includes a collection of family properties ranging from three-bedroom terraced to five-bedroom detached homes.

CALA Homes delivered the new properties on a notable gap site in one of Midlothian's most bustling areas, adjacent to Loanhead Road, Straiton.

Gavin Pope, Land Director with CALA Homes (East), said: "From day one Mayburn Park has been a truly popular development with buyers responding favourably to the space and luxury on offer.

"For us, it is always important that we are delivering homes that people want to live in. The team have got the balance just right here – from the choice of home-styles through to delivery, with Ian's impressive transformation of the site getting national recognition.  

"I'd like to also thank the neighbouring community for their support and patience throughout the build and hope that they feel the development has brought benefit to the local area."

The Mayburn Parl site has even represented Scotland at the UK stage – with its site manager Ian Welsh winning large development of the year at the NHBC Regional Awards, going forward to become a finalist and runner up - in the UK awards in January.

In addition, an independent economic analysis by Lichfields calculated that, partly as a result of its focus on local suppliers, the benefit of CALA's work at Mayburn Park and at four further Midlothian developments would bring an economic boost of more than £300million.

Further CALA Homes (East) developments in Midlothian include: Chapel Lawns in Roslin; and Belwood Oaks in Penicuik.
