Twenty-four flats have been built by CHAP Construction and are available for social rent.
Castlehill Housing Association has taken delivery of 24 flats at Deer’s Den, Kintore. This new development, built by CHAP Construction, comprises 18 one-bed and six two-bed affordable rented homes and is located at the West side of Kintore.
Castlehill Development Manager Fraser Buchanan said: “The association would like to thank our main contractor, Chap Construction, for providing a smooth and well organised build of our new development, Deer's Den, Kintore.
"The project has been built on a brown field site, in the heart of the settlement, and was the first traditional style project where the association was client and had tendered the build contract competitively, undertaken for some years.”
David Lappin, Castlehill’s Chief Executive, added:“These new flats are a great addition to the area. Castlehill is committed to providing good quality homes at affordable rents.
"We are pleased to be able to complete this project after minor delays due to the pandemic.
"Castlehill would also like to thank our team of consultants, who provided professional services throughout the project: Ian Roger Architects, McCue and Porter Quantity Surveyors, Cameron and Ross Civil and Structural Engineers, GWS Architects Principal Designer and Burness Paull Solicitors as well as our funding partners from the Scottish Government, Aberdeenshire Council and CAF Bank.”
Castlehill Housing and Property Services Director Isla Gray said: “We are delighted to be starting the year with a new scheme of beautiful and spacious flats in Kintore.
"Our new tenants are very pleased with the properties, which are close to amenities and links to the village and city beyond.”
Castlehill has further properties due for handover in Insch later this spring.
