A total of 104 new homes have been successfully delivered on Edinburgh's waterfront by CCG (Scotland) and Port of Leith Housing Association (PoLHA).

The properties at Heron Place, Heron View and Heron Lane are situated at Granton Harbour and make up a stretch of the city's large-scale waterfront regeneration framework.

The development has been designed with existing and new communities in mind and has a sunlit central courtyard that residents will be able to enjoy together. In total there are 46 homes for social rent, including two wheelchair-accessible flats, and 58 homes for mid-market rent.

Heather Kiteley, Group Chief Executive said: "It was a pleasure to visit our new development on Granton's waterfront and to meet some of its new residents this Scottish Housing Day. The location is close to various paths and networks that interconnect north Edinburgh's greenspaces. I am sure the community here will enjoy making the most of the city's coastline and all the sustainable transport options it offers.


"That Scottish Housing Day is focusing on housing and the climate emergency this year is of personal importance to me. This new development has the lowest Environmental Impact Rating, good insulation, and is fitted with air quality monitors throughout. We as an industry have a long way to go to reach net-zero, and I am committed to working closely with colleagues on even more ambitious solutions to the climate challenges we face in the months and years to come."

CCG Managing Director, David Wylie, said: "The Granton Waterfront Regeneration is one of the most significant of its kind in Scotland with housing being a key part of the City's vision for its transformation. CCG's journey at the waterfront began at Heron Place and works continue to be progressed with Port of Leith HA on a further 304 homes on an adjacent development. It's an exciting time for the area and the wider housebuilding programme in Edinburgh and we are delighted to be playing our part as we embark on a further 600+ homes which are set to commence in 2022."

CCG is currently live on various projects across the City of Edinburgh Local Authoirty including Granton with works progreesing adjacent to Heron Place, with Port of Leith HA, on a further 304 flats.
