Fairmilehead’s Future: Homes Over Offices | Edinburgh News
Description
Scottish Water is set to demolish its aging Fairmilehead offices—riddled with dangerous RAAC and asbestos—and build up to 124 new homes, blending private and affordable housing at a 35% ratio. As staff relocate to Waverley Court by autumn 2026 (thanks to remote work trends), the site will transform from underused offices into a vibrant residential neighborhood with new access, green spaces, and bus links. The plan’s on the council’s table—with a community vote July 29th—marking a pivotal moment for Fairmilehead’s future.
