A new development is set to bring 152 homes in Edinburgh - including 39 affordable houses.

The plans include a mix of two-bedroom apartments, three-bedroom townhouses and three and four-bedroom family homes just off Lasswade Road.

The development, named Edgelaw View, is launching Saturday, June, 22. The website states: "Edgelaw View launches on June 22 from our Carberry Grange development. Come along to find out more and reserve your dream home."

Edgelaw View follows Edgelaw, Miller Homes’ 2019 development in the area, and aims to meet the demand for energy-efficient homes within easy reach of Edinburgh.

The plans include the area to have lots of communal green spaces, bike stores and electrical vehicle charging points.

In a move towards helping buyers live sustainably and reduce energy costs, each Miller home at the new Edgelaw View development will come with solar panels.

Speaking about the upcoming launch, Regional Sales Director for Miller Homes Scotland East, Neil Gaffney said: “We’re excited to start selling homes at Edgelaw View and make our return to the area after the huge success of Edgelaw.

“The new development has something for a wide range of buyers, whether they’re looking to get a foot on the property ladder, upsize to a larger home, or downsize to a convenient location near Edinburgh.

He adds: "Given the demand for new homes near the city centre, we’re expecting a big uptake on the styles released for sale this weekend so would encourage buyers considering a move to register their interest now.”

Residents could move in this year as the first homes currently being built are said to be ready to move into later this year.

1.5 Million New Homes Needed To Meet Demand, Says Freddie Mac, But There's A Catch
The U.S. housing market faces a significant problem: there aren't enough homes to go around. Experts at Freddie Mac say we need an extra 1.5 million homes to meet current demand. This shortage is evident because there are very few vacant homes for rent or sale, putting a lot of pressure on people looking for a place to live. However, it seems that the 1.5 million shortage is an understatement, as it doesn’t account for potential housing demand and vacant housing that is not for sale or for rent.
