Work will begin on another seven sites over the next six months, which will see a further 259 homes built.

Each property is designed to meet local housing needs as well as high energy efficiency and security standards. In addition, the units are for various tenures including for social rent, mid-market rent and for sale through partnership support for regeneration.

Kingdom Chief Executive, Bill Banks, said: "Our current business plan is to develop around 1,100 homes over the next five years and this year will see very positive progress towards achieving this ambitious goal.

"It is a record year for our busy development team which will result in the construction of much needed affordable homes in Dunfermline, Cupar, Kincardine, Lower Largo, Crosshill, Alloa, Inverkeithing, Sauchie, Saline and Tullibody as well as houses for our partners in Lochgelly, Perth and Levenmouth."
