Housebuilder Hadden Homes has been appointed to build 29 private family homes for sale plus ten affordable homes on behalf of Perth and Kinross Council.

The development has been designed to give a mix of bungalows, semi-detached and detached family homes offering value for money for families looking to benefit from living in a historic village. In addition to the private homes the development is also delivering 10 homes to assist Perth & Kinross Council and The Scottish Government in hitting their target of 50,000 new affordable homes in Scotland by 2021. The homes on Newburgh Road, Abernethy are within five minutes of the local school, Abernethy Primary. The development is contributing £187,340 to education, and £76,531 to transport infrastructure.

As part of their development in Abernethy, Hadden Homes is investing in the community and engaging with the local schools and organisations. Hadden Group's Community Engagement Officer, Kirsty Clements has made plans to visit Abernethy Primary School to deliver a presentation on Site Safety in order to deter children from entering building sites and jeopardising their safety. The presentation will be rounded off by launching a Hadden Homes sponsored poster competition for the children of the school to get involved in, and further implement the message set out by the presentation. The winning posters will be displayed on the fencing around their building site and will stay there for the duration of the development. David Reid, Hadden Homes commented: "We are delighted to be able to progress our site in Abernethy and look forward to delivering another development of carefully designed and value for money rural family homes."
