Deal concluded for 750 new homes in South Ayrshire

Swan Group has concluded the purchase of land at Corton, South Ayrshire, on which it aims to deliver in excess of 750 new homes.

This includes the purchase of the adjacent Anderson land holding, bringing the overall masterplan area to around 146 acres.

Swan Group has also secured "substantial funding" to complete the infrastructure works which will support the new community, including roads within the development and a new roundabout linking the site to the A77.

The Corton project will include affordable housing provision, communal outdoor spaces, shops and food outlets.

Phil McGinlay, managing director of Swan Group, said: “Having secured the required funding, we are ready to start the infrastructure works needed to support this new community.

“We’re especially excited to announce our consideration to plan one of the area’s first vehicle charging stations, to support the growing use of electric vehicles, vital in reducing the level of engine fumes for the people who will be living in Corton.

“This is our biggest development to date and we are immensely proud to be extending our vision of bringing high quality new homes to Ayrshire, in addition to our other projects in Aberdeen, Royston, Dalmarnock and Edinburgh Road.”

Swan Group is planning to start work on the infrastructure in the first quarter of 2022.
