Springfield Properties has racked up a hat-trick of success in June by winning three categories in the prestigious Scottish Homes Awards.

At a special lunch in Edinburgh on June 26 Springfield scooped the titles for Conversion of the Year, House of the Year and Apartment of the Year.

It was a major coup for the company that saw them triumph against some of the biggest names in Scotland and take a trio of top awards for projects in the North of Scotland at Portessie, Alness and Forres.

Managing director John Main said: "This reflects the company's core philosophy as a team working to the highest standards at every level. Winning three is an outstanding achievement."

The Conversion of the Year title is for a two-home transformation of the former Rathven Village Hall that was built in 1913 and occupies a significant location in Portessie village with magnificent views across the Moray Firth. It has created two high quality two-storey homes with bespoke features that stand in a quiet residential area.

The Home of the Year is the Newton Highland design that forms part of Springfield's Alness development at The Paddock.

This 167 square metre detached family home occupies a tree-lined plot close to Alness town centre and just 20 minutes from Inverness.

The attractive four-bedroom design is highlighted by extensive use of wood cladding and careful features that capture the character of a traditional Highland home set off by its leafy location.

Finally the Apartment of the Year has been admired extensively since it was completed.

The Pine Court Apartments on Bogton Road in the Moray floral capital of Forres was a challenge because it was built on a roadside and on the site of a burned out cottage property.

The unique design of the building both internally and externally delivers an attractive proposition for buyers and passers-by because of extensive use of timber and traditional Moray stone cladding.

All three properties are finished to the highest standards and use construction methods and materials that are environmentally sustainable.
