The grant will help fund the development of 134 new homes across six sites in the Scottish Borders with a total investment of just under £25m.

More than half of the homes will be delivered by March 2021 with the remaining in 2022. The developments form part of Eildon’s commitment to deliver 750 new homes in the Borders by the end of March 2021.
