Lovell breaks ground at new West Lothian development
Lovell Homes has marked the start of a new development, at Central Square in Winchburgh 12 miles from Edinburgh, with a sod-cutting ceremony.
The mixed-tenure development will feature 176 energy-efficient homes, with 107 for private sale and 69 available for social rent.
The Lovell development is located in what will become a new central hub for the growing community of the historic Winchburgh village established in 1169. Central Square is opposite a new Sainsbury’s superstore and within walking distance to the marina and award-winning Auldcathie Park, as well as a new school, wellbeing centre, leisure campus, and new public parks. Winchburgh offers excellent transport links, including the recently opened M9 link road, providing easy access to Edinburgh, Glasgow, and beyond.
Central Square will have a range of housetypes from 3 and 4-bedroom homes for growing families and striking 2.5-storey residences with loft-style principal suites and four-storey townhouses. Each property is built with meticulous attention to detail and high-quality finishes, ensuring a blend of style, comfort, and long-term value. With high energy efficiency at the core, these homes are crafted to help residents reduce their carbon footprint and lower energy costs.
Tony Rankin, regional managing director for Lovell in Scotland, said: “Winchburgh is one of the most significant and most exciting place-making projects in the UK right now, and we are very proud to have such a central location in this exciting new community.
“Lovell is committed to modern design, energy efficiency and quality, and we are looking forward to unveiling a brand new range of homes at Winchburgh.”
