Almondvale Gardens, which is perfectly placed for both Edinburgh and Glasgow, comprises a contemporary collection of just seven luxurious three- and four-bedroom homes set in the green tree-lined surroundings of the rural West Lothian location.

The first homes from the exclusive pocket have been released to homebuyers via selling agent Rettie & Co.

Each property, boasting impressive kerb appeal, and will be impeccably finished, offering luxury as standard. The spacious homes are well-proportioned throughout, with large windows welcoming in natural light, giving each room an airy atmosphere and a greater sense of space.

The open plan living, kitchen and dining area is perfect for entertaining, with bi-fold doors leading out to the large private garden to the rear of the property.

Upstairs, spacious contemporary bedrooms make these homes ideal for versatile family living, with the opportunity of utilising spare bedrooms for home offices. Modern bathrooms, with high quality fixtures and finishes, add to the grandeur of these homes, with en-suites included in the main bedroom.

Andrew Dallas, projects director for the Group, said: “We are delighted to launch our first ever development of private homes, unveiling our high specification product to the market at Blackburn.

“We are known and trusted for our quality and craftsmanship and are passionate about presenting this in each of our JR Homes developments. We have used our decades of homebuilding knowledge to curate a collection of homes that go above and beyond a ‘standard product’.

“Our specification is exceptionally high and thanks to our size and approach, we can work with each one of our homebuyers to create a bespoke product for them – whether that’s added fixtures and fittings or converting the garage space prior to them moving in.

“We have already generated a lot of interest in these homes, so we anticipate that this first release will be snapped up quickly. We would urge anyone interested to get in touch with our selling agents at Rettie & Co to find out more.”

JR Homes comes from strong roots, with The JR Group growing from strength to strength since its creation 25 years ago. It has built a strong reputation for itself in the industry and has taken the natural step to launch this new arm of its business, with a strong land bank spanning the length and breadth of central Scotland.

All properties are sold with a 10-year NHBC warranty, providing peace of mind for years to come.

Andrew Dallas continued: “This is an incredibly exciting milestone in our journey as a business. We want each of our customers to enjoy a new and better way of living in our premium properties – delivering a first-class service from start to finish.”

Calum Miller, director of new homes at Rettie & Co, added: “We’re really excited to be working with JR Homes on their first private homes project. Almondvale Gardens offers seven extremely well-designed family homes, finished to a very high standard.

“The market has seen a huge shift from city centre living to more rural homes which offer all the benefits of more space, more property for your budget, but still provide quick and simple commuting options to the main cities for the more hybrid working model most are adopting.

“Having run a shortcoming soon campaign and then released our first two plots, we were inundated with interest and have already sold one of our first two-family homes. We’ll be making a second release very shortly and expect this niche development to sell very quickly.”
