ENERGY EFFICIENT HOMES USING UNIQUE OFFSITE CONSTRUCTION METHOD
Castleview, Aberlady Dundee (Discovery Homes)
Client: Discovery homes (Dundee)
Location: Dundee
Status: Completed 2022
The site is located in the North Eastern section of Dundee (Whitfield) just South of the main trunk road Berwick Drive. Whitfield is benefiting from major regeneration initiative, involving creation of 900 new houses (750 of which will be private) and a new school.
The Phase 2 proposal is for 26no. 2-3bedroom houses, using a mix of 3no. House type variants (two storey houses and Bungalows).
The frontages of the buildings are simple but attractive, and by using both detached and semi-detached units this will create a range of provision and a varied street elevation. The variants utilise different colours/materials/elevational treatments to help create a more interesting streetscape and no two of the same house types are located on adjacent plots.
The houses are constructed off site using the clients unique factory conditions, then shipped to site and finished insitu.
