Pentland Housing Association is continuing their commitment to the regeneration of the Lower Pulteneytown area of Wick, and they are now converting some derelict properties on the corner site of Saltoun and Miller Street into three flats (1 x 1 bedroom, 1 x 2 bedrooms and 1 x 3 bedrooms). Two of the flats will be available for low cost home ownership through the Homestake scheme and one flat will be for affordable rent. The rest of the ground floor will be converted into office space for rent.
The refurbishment will be to modern standards with the existing period details such as the stone façade, windows, slate roof and dormer windows being retained. This project has been enabled through funding from Communities Scotland, Highland Council, the Lower Pulteneytown Townscape Heritage Initiative and HIE Caithness & Sutherland.
For more information on the above development, please telephone Pentland Housing Association on 01847 892507 or email pha@pentlandhousing.co.uk
