THE SMART MOVE FOR MODERN LIFESTYLES

Just south of Edinburgh, Shawfair is shaping up to be Scotland's best connected new town, with excellent road and rail links to Edinburgh, the Borders and beyond.

Shawfair offers country living on Edinburgh's doorstep, with a masterfully designed town centre taking shape, offering schools, offices, shops and places to eat and much more.

A network of cycle and walking paths help bring the community together with lots of landscaped green space, woodland and open water all around.
