New Year Sales Boost For CALA

CALA Homes in Aberdeen has bucked the January trend, reporting sales worth £2 million in just three weeks.

Seven properties have been taken off the market so far this month, boosting CALA’s already successful Campus development in Aberdeen’s Hilton area.

CALA Homes North Regional Director, Mike Naysmith, commented: “Given the traditionally quiet nature of early January for securing sales, we have performed exceptionally well. This highlights the strength of our product in what continues to be a challenging market.

“Building on our success, this week (27 January) will see the launch of two brand new Campus showapartments, increasing our offering to three.

“We enter February in an encouraging financial position, committed to the development’s continued appeal and success.”

The Campus is an exclusive, enclosed development including a mix of prime apartments and townhouses. Conveniently located for Aberdeen Royal Infirmary, the University of Aberdeen and the city centre, the properties have proved popular since transforming the former university grounds three years ago.

The first of the new showhomes includes a luxury three-bedroom penthouse apartment with balcony, revealing breathtaking panoramic views of the city. With over 1,000 sq ft of living space it provides more space than the average modern home.

The remaining apartments in this style, all en-suite, will be completed by April 2011.

CALA’s showlodge with customer reception at the entrance to the development has also been refurbished, now home to an elegantly designed two-bedroom apartment. This will also be available for viewing from 27 January.

Prices start from £229,000 and CALA has a range of incentives in place, including part exchange and floor coverings.
