Affordable, sustainable and accessible homes

Located on the former Cupar police station site, the Carslogie Road development has delivered 17 new affordable homes as part of Fife Council’s long‑term housing strategy. This project was the first of seven contracted schemes within the council’s wider housebuilding programme, setting the standard for future delivery across the region.

Affordable homes for the long term

The need for social and affordable housing is ever pressing, and these homes are a great example of quality council-led homes that will be affordable to rent and live in long term.

Sustainable construction to achieve low running costs

We have constructed the homes to highly energy efficient designs, to help the Fife Council achieve their target of increasing their stock of high-quality housing. 

All homes are fitted with sprinkler systems recognising both Fife and Scottish Government criteria for safety to be paramount in newly built homes.

Features will keep energy bills low for the residents, underlining the Council's commitment to the natural environment and the wellbeing of its communities.

Long-lasting community impact

Working in the heart of the community, we recognise the important part we play to create and generate social impact, helping to leave a legacy for years to come.
