Project overview

This luxurious townhouse development sits on Liberton Brae on the south side of Edinburgh with fantastic views of Blackford Hill and the Royal Observatory.

The development consists of three four-bedroom townhouses split over two storeys. The building was changed from a standard steel frame with timber kit infill to a frame with SIPs panel infill to create a more economic design solution. The design allows for a contemporary layout incorporating a fully glazed central courtyard and fully glazed end gable wall allowing natural light throughout the properties.
