Work Starts On Residential Development In Ballymena

Construction News Image
Hagan Homes has announced it has started construction on its latest residential development, Carncormick Meadow, located on Gortnageeragh Road, Cargan, Ballymena.

Initial work kicked off in Spring, marking Hagan Homes' first-ever housing development in the Cargan area. The project, a significant £8 million investment, is expected to take two years to complete, creating up to 60 jobs during the construction phase.

Carncormick Meadow promises to be an exemplary residential community, blending modern living with the neighbouring beauty of County Antrim’s countryside and popular NI attractions.

The development will feature 53 homes, including three-bedroom semi-detached and detached houses, designed to cater to families and individuals. The homes will be priced between £160,000 and £190,000, making them an attractive option for a range of buyers.

Each home at Carncormick Meadow is designed to an impeccably high standard, ensuring style, comfort, and luxury. The properties feature bright, spacious interiors, striking exteriors, and high-quality fixtures and fittings throughout. Homeowners will benefit from modern conveniences, including the Ember PS Smart Heating Control System, pre-wiring for BT and Sky Q, and ultrafast full fibre broadband.

Additionally, Carncormick Meadow is Hagan Homes' first A-rated EPC (Energy Performance Certificate) development. The EPC’s purpose is to indicate how energy efficient a building is, providing an energy efficiency rating from A to G, where A is very efficient, and G is the least efficient. The better the rating, the more energy efficient the building is, and the lower the fuel bills are likely to be. This rating underscores Hagan Homes’ commitment to sustainability and energy efficiency, ensuring lower fuel bills and a smaller carbon footprint for homeowners.

Situated in a prime location, Carncormick Meadow offers residents convenient access to essential amenities and services. With a bus stop just minutes away by foot, commuting to Ballymena and beyond is easy. The development also boasts excellent road links to Ballymena, Antrim, and Belfast City Centre, ensuring hassle-free travel for daily commuters. Belfast International Airport and George Best City Airport are reachable in under an hour by car, making travel further afield straightforward.

Residents of Carncormick Meadow will enjoy easy access to multiple supermarkets, including Tesco, Sainsbury’s, and Lidl, all within a twenty-minute drive. The renowned Glenariff Forest Park, with its expansive woodlands, lakes, and recreational spaces, is just 10 minutes away by car, offering a perfect escape for family outings and nature lovers. The nearby Cushendall Golf Club and several notable landmarks, such as the historic Dark Hedges, Carnfunnock Country Park, and the picturesque village of Broughshane, are also easily accessible.

Jim Burke, Director of Sales and Acquisitions at Hagan Homes, said: "We are thrilled to bring Carncormick Meadow to the Cargan area. This development illustrates our commitment to building high-quality homes that meet the needs of modern families while integrating seamlessly with the natural beauty of the surrounding area. We look forward to welcoming the first homeowners and seeing this community flourish. We anticipate the first handovers to take place this winter."

The showhome at Carncormick Meadow is scheduled to open in October, offering prospective buyers an opportunity to experience the quality and design of the homes firsthand. The first phase of homes will be completed, with handovers beginning in November and December. The entire site is expected to be finished by early 2026.
