and a family bathroom.

The lower floors provide a bright lounge and WC, and a spacious designer kitchen with an open- plan family area creates the socia social epicentre of the home. Plen Plenty of designated storage spa space is also provided throughout. ou

Those living in the new homes can enjoy stunning natural views as the developmen­t backs onto Cardowan Moss nature reserve, while Seven Lochs at Hogganfiel­d Park is a five- minute drive. The new developmen­t is highly energy- efficient to help reduce running costs for new homeowners, achieving B energy rating.

Ainslie McCrone, sales and marketing manager at Briar Homes Ltd, said: “Meadowood is the ideal family developmen­t, providing spacious three- bedroom homes surrounded by greenery.

“Briar developmen­ts are always thoughtful­ly designed by architects and come with a higher specificat­ion as standard.

“This is a popular and wellconnec­ted area, meaning we are already seeing high levels of interest.

“With completion­s expected in late summer this year, families can look forward to catching the last of the warmer weather in their new gardens.”

Prices for semi- detached villas in the Ash style start at £ 259,000 and the first phase of completion­s is expected in late summer.
