Findrassie by Barratt Homes · 1 Nasmith Crescent, Elgin, Moray IV30 4FG

Findrassie, located at 1 Nasmith Crescent, Elgin, Moray IV30 4FG, is a large-scale new build community developed by Barratt Homes. The site forms part of the wider Findrassie Masterplan, an ambitious 20-25 year project that will ultimately deliver approximately 1,650 new homes, a new primary school site, and dedicated retail/commercial space in a tenure-neutral community environment. Barratt Homes is currently marketing homes in Phase 3 of the development, which is situated approximately one mile north of Elgin town centre.

Available properties include a range of modern, energy-efficient 2, 3, and 4-bedroom houses. Current pricing for available plots starts at £204,995 for a 2-bedroom terraced house, such as the 'Fasque 1' house type, and ranges up to £262,995 for a 3-bedroom semi-detached 'Thurso' house type. Larger detached homes, like the 4-bedroom 'Cullen', are also available, with pricing for these larger units available upon enquiry. All properties at Findrassie are designed for modern, energy-efficient living, intended to offer savings on household running costs compared to older properties. Select house types, such as the 4-bedroom 'Cullen', have been noted to include installed solar panels. The homes feature contemporary layouts with dedicated open-plan kitchen/dining areas and access to private gardens. For two-bedroom types like the Fasque 1, features may include two double bedrooms and a large rear garden, with certain plots offering a south-facing aspect. Buyers are encouraged to arrange an appointment to view the two available show homes and confirm the specific plot features, internal specifications, and any potential optional upgrades. Findrassie benefits from strong road links, situated just off the A941, the main route between Elgin and Lossiemouth. This location provides convenient access to the A96 for travel further afield, with RAF Lossiemouth accessible via approximately a 10-minute drive. The developer is contributing over £304,200 towards transport improvements in Elgin, including a new north-to-south link road and upgrades to key junctions to improve pedestrian and cycle provision. Rail travel from Elgin train station offers average journey times of approximately 43-47 minutes to Inverness and around 1 hour 29 minutes to Aberdeen, facilitating commutes to both cities. Local amenities are accessible via a short journey. Elgin town centre, approximately 1 mile away, provides access to high-street shops, cafes, bars, a library, and a pharmacy. Leisure facilities nearby include the Elgin Golf Club and the Moray coast, with Lossiemouth beach within a short drive. For education, the development is within the catchment for Elgin Academy and Moray College UHI. While the masterplan includes a new 450-pupil Findrassie Primary School, construction has been deferred by Moray Council, with the earliest current planned opening date anticipated for the 2030/31 academic year; purchasers should confirm current primary school catchment details with Moray Council. The development is part of a phased long-term build, with future amenities planned to include local commercial/retail units and a community hub. Developer obligations include contributions of over £3 million towards local infrastructure and services, including £1.45 million for primary education and £476,450 for healthcare services, which may fund additional dental chairs at Maryhill medical practice. Specific pricing, plot availability, and viewing arrangements for all house types must be confirmed by contacting the Barratt Homes sales office directly at the Findrassie site.
