Five star-rated housebuilder Mactaggart & Mickel Homes have opened the doors to two new showhomes at their new development on the outskirts of Denny, near the River Carron. 

With indicative prices ranging from £95,000 to £235,000, Carrongrove offers a range of quality homes – houses and apartments in a lovely, rural setting, yet within easy commuting reach of Stirling, Edinburgh and Glasgow.

The Lismore is a beautifully finished end-terrace family home. Offered with new flooring throughout, the well-planned ground floor offers a spacious living/family room leading to the garden via French doors, a separate kitchen with oven, hob and hood, under-stairs cupboard, and a cloakroom. On the first floor, there are three good-sized bedrooms, with a fitted wardrobe to the master bedroom and a large family bathroom. Priced from £174,995, first time buyers can enjoy full LBTT paid. Alternatively, this property is eligible for Help to Buy (Scotland)*. 

The Oronsay is a two-bedroom mid-terrace home with generous proportions.  The ground floor is mainly open plan, giving a lovely, airy feel and the smart kitchen comes with cooker hood, hob and oven. The two bedrooms upstairs are complemented by a roomy family bathroom and the entire property benefits from its own enclosed garden. The Oronsay is offered with full LBTT paid for first-time buyers.  Alternatively this property is eligible for Help to Buy (Scotland)*. Priced from £154,995. 

Mactaggart & Mickel Homes use only the highest quality, with bathroom sanitaryware by Roca Debba, chrome fittings by Hansgrohe and wall tiling by Porcelanosa. USB sockets and provision for fibre broadband are provided in most properties.

 The kitchens at Carrongrove are fitted with oven, hob and hood, and the apartments include an integrated washer/dryer. Further personalisation options are available on a range of high-quality cabinets, handles, and worktops.

 Joanne Casey, Director of Mactaggart & Mickel Homes, said: 

“These showhomes are simply stunning and it is no surprise that we are already welcoming a high number of viewers.  Carrongrove is an ideal location for people wishing to make that first step onto the housing ladder or looking for somewhere to raise a family, with numerous schools, fast transport links and must-see attractions nearby.”

 Mactaggart & Mickel Homes intend to restore and renovate Carrongrove House - the former mill owner’s home - during a later stage of development, creating a striking centrepiece and green space for all residents to enjoy.  

Local area

Located on the southern banks of the river Carron, Carrongrove has an interesting past. Until 2005, the site was home to the Carrongrove Paper Mill, which was one of the most important paper factories in the area during the 19th and 20th centuries. 

A large-scale project is currently underway for the regeneration of Denny, which will add public artwork and a redeveloped town square and library, plus improved pedestrian access.  

Families moving to the area will have a great choice of local schools including St Patricks RC Primary School, Nethermains Primary School and Denny Primary School and Nursery Class. Several well-regarded secondary schools are also located within a short distance of the development, including St Mungo’s High School with a proud record of academic excellence.

For outdoor lovers, canalside walks and cycling are sure to be of interest, as are visits to see the iconic Kelpies and Helix Park, with its adventure playground, walkways and boating lake.  The award-winning Falkirk Wheel is also nearby.  Keen golfers will find plenty of choice from the superior quality 18-hole Glenbervie Golf Course, set in rolling parkland, and the Bonnybridge Golf Course.

Visiting Carrongrove

House buyers can visit the two showhomes off Tarduff Place, Stoneywood FK6 5GH 

Opening hours are Thurs to Mon inclusive, 11am to 5pm (closed Tues and Weds).
