NEW tenants are being handed the keys to their new homes in Dingwall after the completion of a new development.
Highland Council is welcoming tenants following the recent completion of eight council houses at Larch Bridge Way in the town.
The site is made up of two- and three-bed homes including two bungalows. One of the family homes has a ground floor bedroom and bathroom making it suitable for wheelchair users.
The homes were designed by architects Bracewell Stirling and the site contractor was O’Brien Properties. HGA were the project engineers and KLM provided quantity surveying services. The Highland Housing Alliance acted as development agent and Helica provided the clerk of works service.
Funding for the project came from the Scottish Government and Highland Council.
Ross and Cromarty civic leader and Dingwall and Seaforth ward councillor, Margaret Paterson said: “Providing more quality affordable housing is a priority for the council so I am very pleased that families in Dingwall are now moving into their new well designed homes. I am especially pleased that the needs of tenants with mobility issues have been taken into consideration and I am sure the excellent facilities will make a huge difference to these people.”
