Award-winning housebuilder, Cruden Homes, has launched the stunning new ‘Orchid’ show home at its West Craigs Green development in the heart of west Edinburgh.

The development offers a mix of 122 new homes perfect for first time buyers, growing families and downsizers, including a range of 3 bedroom terraced and semi-detached houses and 4-bedroom townhouses, each with their own private gardens. 1-, 2- & 3-bedroom apartments, many with generous private balconies and sunny south or west aspects, are also available.

The West Craigs area is undergoing exceptional transformation and offers a growing and friendly neighbourhood with an abundance of green space, including the brand-new Lennie and Meadowfield Parks. There are also plans for a new primary school, cafe and health centre, all within walking distance.

Ideally located between Barnton and South Gyle, West Craigs Green is just five miles from Edinburgh’s vibrant city centre and benefits from excellent transport links, including cycle routes, bus, rail and tram stops within close proximity. The Gyle shopping centre offers a range of amenities, including high street shops, a supermarket and eateries, all easily accessible on foot or by car.

The spacious three-bed ‘Orchid’ show home offers modern open-plan living with a large kitchen/dining area at the back of the home, a welcoming lounge, very generously sized master bedroom and a family bathroom.

Suzanne Thomas at Blocc Interiors designed the show home, which balances luxury interiors, with the use of neutral colours tones with accent colours earthy tan & terracotta throughout the design scheme. The show home uses natural woods and gentle hints of industrial metals, brought to life with statement wallpaper, bold decoration and abstract artwork. Sharing her inspiration to create a stylish yet comfortable living space for all the family to enjoy, Suzanne said:

“I wanted to create a luxurious and functional home to cater to a variety of homebuyers.  I used earthy materials to reflect the beautiful scenery that surrounds West Craigs Green, paired with bold statement pieces that perfectly match the modern way of life the development has to offer.”

Cruden Homes has also partnered with property technology experts, Pixel, to provide state-of-the-art technology that allows prospective buyers to virtually explore West Craigs Green from the comfort of their own home. Using the innovative HomesSelector, buyers can take a step-by-step tour of the inside and outside of each property, and enjoy a virtual walk-through of the wider development, with key points of interest shown throughout. The Options Selector enables those who have purchased a property to tailor their home to their personal taste, visualising different design options for their kitchens, tiling and flooring, and keeping track of upgrades along the way.

Hazel Davies, Sales and Marketing Director at Cruden Homes, said: “West Craigs Green is a thriving community-inspired development in Edinburgh providing the ideal place for growing families who want to live in a scenic position, yet within easy reach of city life.

“Our ‘Orchid’ showhome gives potential buyers a window into life at West Craigs Green.   To help build this picture even more, we’re using state-of-the-art technology to take a virtual step into the whole development so they can explore the plot of their choice and tailor make their dream new home.”

The first phase of homes are due for completion in Spring 2024, with prices starting from £290,000 for a two-bedroom home.
