North Ayrshire’s ambitious house-building programme continues to improve the lives of residents across North Ayrshire.
The Council and its Registered Social Landlord partners are delivering new homes throughout the area. Council projects are currently underway in Beith, Kilbirnie, Largs, Ardrossan, and Irvine, whilst Cunninghame Housing Association recently completed new homes in Stevenston.
The housebuilding programme, which is supported by funding from the Scottish Government, is making a significant difference across North Ayrshire, and providing a catalyst for the regeneration of towns and communities.
The Council has already delivered 897 new build homes, with a further 746 homes in the pipeline. This is in addition to the work being delivered to regenerate estates, improve existing homes and create housing specifically designed for older residents and tenants with additional support needs.
The Council and its partners are also stepping up their buyback programmes to increase affordable housing stock.
North Ayrshire Council’s Cabinet recently approved its new five-year Strategic Housing Investment Plan (SHIP) for 2025-2030.
The SHIP sets out the priorities for affordable housing investment in North Ayrshire over the next five years and outlines how the Council and its Registered Social Landlord partners will deliver these priorities.
Eight new Council housing developments are currently under way which will deliver 248 new homes across North Ayrshire. This includes the Council’s largest housing development to date at the site of the former maternity unit at Ayrshire Central Hospital in Irvine, where 202 new homes will be built.
