Our single-tenancy residential development in Bonnyrigg, 1 - 21 St Cuthberts, has achieved Passivhaus Classic Standard, a significant step in minimising environmental impact whilst ensuring residents live happily and comfortably.

This latest achievement is a testament to our commitment to sustainable, energy-efficient design placing people’s health and wellbeing at the forefront.

A thoughtful and sustainable supported living development with a community focus

Located in the heart of Bonnyrigg’s town centre sits the residential development, catering for both over 55’s and people living with learning disabilities. Through sensitive and considerate design choices, 1 - 21 St Cuthberts will enable its residents to lead safe, healthy and independent lives within a community environment.

Inside, each room is designed with plenty of space to easily adapt in the future, catering to people’s changing and varying needs with the construction and detailing to enable ceiling hoists to be retrofitted should they need to.

For resident comfort and to avoid sensory overload, we selected a simple palette of materials for the interior design. This also provides residents the opportunity to decorate their space as they wish, giving them greater choice, control and confidence within their living environments.

1 - 21 St Cuthberts joins a number of our Scottish projects set to achieve impressive sustainability targets.
