Current developments
Howdenburn, Jedburgh
The last two phases of our development at Howdenburn in Jedburgh were recently made available to bid on. This phase is made up of 24 homes. The Howdenburn development as a whole is the biggest development in SBHA’s history and a significant development for the Borders as a whole.
We are very much looking forward to the official completion of this important development, and to handing over the homes to their new residents in late May.
Upcoming projects
- Linglie Road – 27 homes for a range of household sizes on the edge of Selkirk. Planning has been approved and we will soon go on site with this project, which will deliver homes ranging from one to four bedrooms. (See artist's impression on the right).
- Heather Mill, Selkirk - Thank you to everyone who came along to our pre-planning events to discuss the proposed development of around 57 new at the former Heather Mill site - right opposite our Head Office! Your views have helped to inform our planning application, which is about to be submitted to SBC. We look forward to bringing you more news on this exciting development as this progresses!
