Recognised as an exemplar project by the Scottish Sustainable Communities Initiative the scheme will lead to the development of a central hub containing amenities such as shops, offices and schools with detailed planning consents already in place. All day-to-day needs will be met within a 5-7-minute walk and the connected street pattern means pedestrians and cyclists will be able to freely move without taking circuitous routes.Property developer Dandara has confirmed that it is to proceed with 69 new homes as part of the first phase of Grandhome, a new community at Aberdeen’s Bridge of Don. The long-term aim is to build 7,000 new homes which will be within walking distance of a range of amenities. Once complete, the first neighbourhood in Grandhome will have approximately 650 homes and will be situated close to parks and community spaces. “We hope everyone has a wonderful festive season in Grandhome and look forward to the celebrations.”

“Christmas is just one of the many annual occasions that the community here will be celebrating and into next year we hope to add to this by launching a calendar of new community events for everyone to enjoy, including those living within the development and surrounding areas. On Christmas morning 80 households, including families, newlywed couples and downsizers, will be unwrapping presents at the Bridge of Don development, which is being built by the Grandhome Trust – in partnership with AJC Homes, CALA Homes and Dandara Homes.īruce Smith, a trustee of the Grandhome Trust, said: “Grandhome is quickly becoming a bustling community and it’s incredibly exciting to see everyone who lives here get ready to celebrate their first Christmas in their new homes.
