AWPR: New Road, New Locations

20th Dec, 2018

With the long-awaited AWPR (Aberdeen Western Peripheral Route) now open and improving journey times in and around the city, it’s no wonder that the housing market of Aberdeen will see buyers looking at locations they previously have never thought of before.

At Kirkwood Homes we’ve a number of developments located close to the new road, offering residents a prime location to connect them to the key business hubs around the area, with easier access to the north and south of Scotland.

Take a look at these time savings on the area’s most popular journeys to see how much time you could shave off your commute. Could this be an opportunity to find your dream home in a new location?:

  • Altens to Newmachar 60 mins to 37 mins
  • Stonehaven to Dyce 63 mins to 36 mins
  • Peterculter to Bridge of Don 49 mins to 26 mins
  • Westhill to Altens 37 mins to 27 mins
  • North Deeside Road to Charleston 23 mins to 13 mins

Charleston Grange, Cove

We’re situated in the heart of this development, one that has grown rapidly over the last 18 months. Built for modern living, Charleston Grange has everything at its doorstep including a PureGym, Starbucks, Sainsburys, Ikea, local boutique retailers, salons, coffee shops, schools and of course access to the AWPR.

Situated less than one mile to the new road makes commuting to Dyce, Peterculter, Westhill, Inverurie and the city centre easier than ever - so if you work in any of the industrial estates then Cove could be the perfect location for you!

Ury Estate, Stonehaven

This development of 85 three, four and five bedroom homes is set on the outskirts of the popular seaside town on its own country estate.

The development offers the best of both worlds, giving you country living whilst remaining close enough to the town’s amenities. The AWPR keeps the town connected, with easier commutes to Aberdeen. So, if you work in Dyce, a commute from Stonehaven that would have taken over an hour will now only take just over half that time.

Kingsford Rise, Alford

Positioned conveniently on the edge of the town of Alford, this development is home to 41 three and four bedroom luxury homes. With prices starting at £219,995, there truly is something for everyone.

Kingsford Rise is also perfectly located to benefit from having everything at its doorstep including local shops, banks and leisure facilities. Alford Community Campus is situated close by and offers a wide range of sporting facilities including a swimming pool, climbing wall and dance studios, as well as a large library and are all open for use to the residents of the town.

Whilst being situated in the heart of the countryside, Alford remains well located for commuting throughout Aberdeenshire, with Aberdeen city centre only 24 miles from the town. With this, the large office complexes of Westhill are just a 25 minute drive away - therefore connecting Alford to the AWPR in no time.
