Plans for hundreds of Aberdeen homes lodged with council

North-east housebuilder Bancon Homes has lodged plans for more than 200 homes at Maidencraig South in the west of Aberdeen.

Bancon Homes has outlined plans for 172 private flat, terraced, semi-detached and detached homes and 36 affordable homes.

The group has submitted proposals for 208 homes in the latest phase of an approved masterplan which comprises a residential development of 825 homes, plus provisions for commercial and retail outlets.

The latest phase outlines plans for 172 private flat, terraced, semi-detached and detached homes, in addition to 36 affordable homes.

As part of its planning obligations, Bancon will contribute around £1 million to the local economy – to fund community, healthcare and school facilities as well as improve roads and upgrade the core path network – and provide affordable housing.

In the earlier phases Bancon Homes completed 128 homes at its developments at Eden and The Reserve and it currently has a development of 40 units on the north side of the Lang Stracht at its Roses at Eden development.

MD Allan Clow said: “This location has already proved popular with young families, couples and downsizers who have benefitted from its unique mix of fantastic connectivity and countryside views.”
