Affordable housing at Aviemore

Affordable housing at Aviemore

As previously reported, the Highland Council has been working with its partners to provide further affordable homes in Aviemore and the first phase provided 200 new homes, of which 100 were affordable housing units.

The second phase of this exciting mixed tenure partnership development is now on site with Albyn Housing Society having completed 7 homes for rent and 6 for purchase through Homestake.  A further 20 affordable homes will be completed in the next two months (12 for affordable rent and 8 Homestake units). All of the affordable housing units benefit from a bio mass (wood chip) district heating system which will provide low cost heating from a renewable fuel source.  The site was purchased by the Highland Council and transferred over to Albyn Housing Society, who have been working in partnership with Robertson Homes on this development.
