Finalists announced for Scottish Home Awards

Finalists announced for Scottish Home Awards

The developments, homes and teams which have progressed to the finals of the 13th annual Scottish Home Awards have been revealed following a record high volume of entries.

Sponsored by Ross & Liddell, the awards celebrate new build housing in Scotland with 19 categories seeking to reward placemaking and the creation of new home communities.

This year’s competition attracted entries from 109 housebuilders, housing associations and support businesses across Scotland and were carefully considered by a judging panel of experts during an all-day debating session in Edinburgh last month.

Chair of the judging panel, Dan Macdonald, CEO of Macdonald Estates, said: “The Scottish Home Awards celebrates the massive contribution that our residential development industry makes to our national economy, our wealth, our self being and our future generations.



“The phenomenal growth in entries this year is testament to the health of the sector and the continued impact that it has in placemaking and the creation of new homes across Scotland. I would like to thank the judging panel for their contribution in debating the merits of each and every entry and I congratulate all of the worthy finalists in this year’s competition.”

Andrew Cunningham, managing director at Ross & Liddell, and a judge on the panel, added: “It is encouraging to see the continued growth of the Scottish Home Awards competition. We have welcomed a record number of entries and firms this year which is testament to the credibility of this now well established and highly regarded awards programme.

“We are proud to continue our support of the programme and extend our congratulations to all the finalists for their achievements.” 

The winners will be revealed at the annual celebration and awards ceremony which takes place on Thursday 11th June 2020 at the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel in Glasgow. 



The awards are operated in support of ‘It’s Good 2 Give’ and the management of The Ripple Retreat a luxury residential retreat on the shores of Loch Venacher in Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park. The award-winning respite home is gifted to young cancer patients and their families for short stay visits.
