First Residents Welcomed At Edinburgh Scheme

Rowanbank Gardens in Edinburgh has welcomed its first residents – in little more than two years since construction started on the development.

Almost 80% of the development’s first Appleberry homes phase is now sold and occupied, with the next phase due for completion this month.

Located in the heart of the bustling Edinburgh suburb of Corstorphine, Rowanbank Gardens is now delivering 93 apartments for private sale set around a large garden space filled with fruit trees and communal planting beds.

The development is proving to be a popular destination for first-time buyers and downsizers wanting to live in well-connected, vibrant community just minutes from the city centre. Nearly half of all apartments have already been snapped up, with just four apartments remaining for sale on this phase.

It is the high quality of the internal spaces which has been wooing buyers, according to Artisan’s New Homes sales advisor Izzy Bastiani. “It’s wonderful to be welcoming our first Rowanbank Gardens residents into their new homes,” she said. “Our buyers are now experiencing at first-hand the light and airy living spaces, as well as the quality of the natural oak flooring and the fittings in the kitchen and bathroom, all of which come as standard.”

The new occupants of Rowanbank Gardens are also benefitting from the developer’s commitment to achieving zero-carbon, low-cost living. It is one of the first large developments in Scotland to employ individual air source heat pumps in all apartments, providing both heating and domestic hot water.

Izzy Bastiani added: “As well as experiencing an extremely high quality of life at Rowanbank Gardens, homeowners can also save money as well as the environment. Energy costs have been predicted to cost up to 60% less than other new build apartments in the surrounding area, with research showing that average annual hot water and space heating costs for a two-bedroom apartment could be as low as £775 per year, or less than £65 per month.”

Prices for a one-, two- and three-bedroom apartment at Rowanbank Gardens start from £245,000, £325,000 and £422,500 respectively. Find out more at www.rowanbankgardens.com.
