As well as being located near the town’s amenities, the £42 million development is well situated for commuters providing easy access to the East Fife regional road. Work will commence on the site in late summer with the first homes being ready for occupation in summer 2008.

Fully serviced and remediated, the site offers views across the River Forth to Edinburgh and is well situated for commuting to Edinburgh and Dunfermline.

A £11.5 million project, phase two will see a further 71 homes being built by Gladedale at Duloch Park. The development which is located near the new areas wide ranging facilities and Carnegie Business Park is also ideal for commuters wishing easy access to Edinburgh by road and rail.

“We are delighted to announce our new expansion plans in the area and the new sites in Burntisland, Dunfermline and Kirkcaldy are key to the wider company strategy.
“Because of its proximity to Edinburgh and the quality of life enjoyed in smaller towns, Fife is fast becoming the location of choice for families. With these new developments, we have ensured the provision of a wide variety of house types and a range of prices.”
