Construction Trends in Stirling

Durieshill is the largest housing development to have secured detailed planning approval in Scotland, transforming a 593-acre site between Bannockburn and Plean into more than 3,000 new homes over a 30 year build-out, alongside new schools, shops, and a business park, with the first homes expected by summer 2027. Nearby, the South Stirling Gateway will add up to 1,100 more homes between Bannockburn and the Pirnhall M9 junction, and a riverside site at Forthside is earmarked for around 120 new homes as part of the city's Forthside regeneration. Away from these major sites, Bridge of Allan and Dunblane keep a strong stock of Victorian villas, generating a steady flow of extensions and refurbishments.
