The Viewfield Park development has transformed a brownfield site that had lain derelict for more than a decade into 58 high-quality, affordable and energy-efficient homes. Work commenced in 2024, with phased handover beginning in September 2025.
The final 12 units are now finished, ahead of schedule. The development consists of cottage flats, townhouses, and two, three and five-bedroom houses, with wheelchair-accessible and amenity bungalows also included.
The new homes have been constructed to energy-efficient designs, with high-performance insulation, windows, sprinklers and modern heating systems to reduce running costs. Solar panel units also feature, helping the build achieve an EPC rating of B.
The project hosted six apprentices, supporting 500 apprenticeship weeks and employing a total of 257 people during the build. Robertson also supported an individual not in employment, education or training (NEET) by offering work experience and funding their CSCS card, resulting in them getting a full-time role.
Councillor Judy Hamilton, Fife Council’s housing spokesperson, said, “Completion of these new houses at Viewfield is an important milestone in our ongoing commitment to delivering high-quality council housing across Fife.
“Developments like this not only provide much-needed housing for local families, but also help create strong, sustainable communities.
“We’re pleased to have worked with Robertson to bring these houses forward, and we look forward to seeing our tenants settle in and make their homes here.”
