Avant Homes Scotland has received planning permission for a new £31m residential development in Tranent, East Lothian.
The Thistle Meadows scheme will comprise 92 three-, four- and five-bedroom family homes, including 10 of Avant Homes’ energy efficient houses.
Work is scheduled to start on site in May and it is anticipated that the first properties will be released for sale in June with the first residents moving into their new homes in February 2025.
Jim Wilkinson, managing director of Avant Homes Scotland, said: “As a business, we are committed to providing quality new homes for everyone in locations where people want to live. We now look forward to starting work on Thistle Meadows to provide local residents and people wanting to move to Tranent with a range of practically designed, energy-efficient homes at various price points.
“We have great mix of properties that will appeal to everyone from first-time buyers to second-steppers, families and downsizers. This is demonstrated by the significant number of sales enquiries we already have for Thistle Meadows and, now that we have been granted planning, we expect this demand to increase further.”
