Raasay Phase 2 Cottages Park, providing six high‑quality new homes for affordable rent to local residents. The development marks another major milestone in our long‑term commitment to delivering sustainable, community‑focused housing on the island.
The new homes respond to a range of local housing needs and reflect a commitment to environmental stewardship, the development also includes bird boxes and insect hotels, fully integrated into the design to enhance local biodiversity.
This project represents the culmination of seven years of sustained investment in Raasay.
Scottish Government Deputy First Minister Kate Forbes MSP, who was in attendance, said: “I am delighted with the progress made by Lochalsh and Skye Housing Association to complete phase two of their affordable housing project on Raasay. I know that these homes will provide much-needed accommodation for locals who are valued members of the community and some of whom are in employment on the island.
“My thanks go out to all who have worked so hard to see this project become a reality.”
