Acha Go on Site at Victoria Park

Argyll Community Housing Association (ACHA) have just gone on site with 5 three bedroom family homes in Victoria Park in Dunoon.

The development on ACHA owned land will be built by M&K MacLeod of Lochgilphead. The onsite work will take around a year with an anticipated handover in the Spring of 2017.

The project has a total value of £811,338, with contributions from ACHA, the Scottish Government and Argyll and Bute Council.

Alastair MacGregor, ACHA’s Chief Executive commented
“I am pleased that we are now on site. Not only will this development provide 5 family homes, it will provide jobs for 20 workers, including 3 apprentices, during the time on site.”
He further added
“I would like to thank the Scottish Government and Argyll and Bute Council for their financial support. We could only have delivered this through the sum of our parts.”

Bruce Marshall, Cowal Councillor and ACHA Board member said
“I would like to add to Alastair’s comment that I am very pleased that ACHA is increasing its housing stock in Cowal and at this very difficult time when funding for new build is so hard to get and I am pleased the Council has been able to assist to make this come about.”
