Dandara sweeps the board at property awards
Property developer Dandara has received 14 prizes in the UK round of the International Property Awards, with half of the plaudits going to its developments in the north-east of Scotland.
Dandara’s residential communities, Hazelwood and Stoneywood in Aberdeen, each received three prizes at the award ceremony in London with the developer’s City South office park also picking up a gong.
Having secured three of the coveted 5-Star awards, Dandara has secured a place at the “world’s best” judging stage of the awards in Dubai later this year.
Hazelwood received the 5-Star award for best architecture (single residence) in Scotland for the four-bedroomed Spruce house type; the development was also highly commended in two categories – best property single unit in North East Scotland for The Devonshire at The Grange and best residential development in North East Scotland for The Wynd at Hazelwood.
The Stoneywood development was awarded two 5-Star awards for best architecture (multiple residence) in Scotland for the Waterton Mews development and best development marketing in Scotland.
Stoneywood was also highly commended in the residential renovation/redevelopment UK category for The Coachhouse within the development’s Walled Garden phase.
In addition, the City South business park was highly commended in the mixed-use development UK category.
Gavin Wyley, managing director of Dandara in Aberdeen, said: “We are extremely honoured to receive such overwhelming recognition for our highly-desirable Hazelwood and Stoneywood developments in Aberdeen as well as our stunning business park, City South.
“These awards are a fantastic acknowledgement of Dandara’s commitment to providing the absolute highest possible standard of living to our customers and better-connected new office facilities to our corporate clients.
“We look forward to representing the UK among the world’s most revered property developers at the final judging stage later this year.”
Dandara received a further seven awards for its developments in The Isle of Man and Bedfordshire.
The UK Property Awards are judged by a panel of more than 70 highly respected experts from all over the world, chaired by two active members of the House of Lords: Lord Caithness and Lord Best.
