CALA Homes Surpasses £20m Sales For New Edinburgh Development

Construction News Image
CALA Homes has completed the sale of the first 'core' of homes at its landmark The Crescent development at Donaldson's in Edinburgh.

The Crescent comprises a host of glass-fronted apartments, with pricing ranging from £975,000 to £1.75 million.

The developer has surpassed sales of £20 million, with more than 18 buyers already moved in and more move in dates confirmed for the coming months.

Philip Hogg, Sales and Marketing Director with CALA Homes (East), said: "Residents moving in adds a whole new element to The Crescent and is rewarding for the teams to see.

"This has always been a hugely ambitious project quite unlike anything built in the city in recent times, so I'm really pleased to see buyers responding so positively.

"There is an amazing diversity to the home types here too. For instance, the vast duplexes could easily become a family home, whereas the garden apartments are a downsizer's dream. They all have a unique feel."

Within the UNESCO World Heritage Site and on the grounds of the iconic Donaldson's Estate, The Crescent is a cutting-edge interpretation of Georgian design principles - and boasts a number of USPs that mark it as a milestone development for both Edinburgh and Scotland.

Since its launch The Crescent has been awarded with a number of prestigious industry accolades, most recently taking the prize for Best Show Home at The Herald property awards.


It is home to the country's most comprehensive provision of electric vehicle charging, with infrastructure in place for all 84 homes to access through their private underground parking bays.

In addition, the landscaped 18-acre grounds have become the largest shared gardens in a city well known for these spaces.
