Bancon Homes has been granted planning permission for the next two phases of homes at its Overton Gardens development in Strathaven.

Under permission granted by South Lanarkshire Council, the company will create a total of 105 two, three, four and five bedroom luxury homes off Glassford Road as part of the next stage of the approved East Overton masterplan. This follows on from the current phase of 37 homes which has seen exceptional demand, with all homes now reserved.

As part of the application, Bancon Homes has permission to install a community park which will include a multi-use games area, skatepark, outdoor gym, play area as well as outdoor seating in a landscaped setting. The development will also benefit from electric vehicle charging points, decorative pedestrian gates and the installation of defibrillators at selected locations.


Allan Clow, Managing Director of Bancon Homes, said: "We are delighted that South Lanarkshire Council has approved our planning application and proud to contribute to the local area with the inclusion of a community park as part of the next phases of this stunning development. We hope that this will become a fantastic community space which everyone can enjoy."

It is one of the region’s leading housebuilders and in addition to Strathaven currently has developments in Aberdeen, Mintlaw and Banchory.
