Sunnyside Estates Ltd, a joint venture between local company Pert-Bruce Construction and Edinburgh-based luxury developer FM Group, is leading the project as it looks to deliver 450 new homes in the area.
The 64-acre site will include luxury apartments and town homes, as well as two new built areas destined for family homes – The Woods and The Orchard. It will form the centrepiece of Sunnyside Estate, set within acres of rural landscape.
Residents will also enjoy access to a community facility located in the original Recreation Hall of Sunnyside main building. The development will be linked by a network of walkway and cycle routes through the open landscaped and mature woodland areas.
The project is expected to stimulate the local economy by creating around 50 local jobs over the next 10 years.
