A NEW face at a property developer is already “making waves” after selling “a raft of homes” totalling more than £3 million at the firm’s flagship development in Musselburgh.

June Pernet joined Dundas, the company building the £35 million Wireworks development in the town centre, as a product specialist in late February.

The Livingston-based company said that she had “hit the ground running – rattling up 11 sales in just her first nine weeks on the job”.

The new homes are being built on the former Brunton Wireworks site.

A spokesperson for Dundas said that the development’s “contemporary collection” of one, two and three-bedroom apartments had proven “a hit with buyers seeking a blend of coastal and urban living.”

June joined the Dundas team after spending 18 months living in Denmark.

She said: “It’s been fantastic to see the development really taking shape, with the first residents beginning to move into the completed homes and that community spirit starting to build.

“You see the blinds and curtains going up, plants appearing on balconies – it’s just so rewarding to be part of creating that vibrant neighbourhood feel that Dundas developments are renowned for.”

Dundas recently announced the sale of its latest block of flats after selling out on the two previous releases, and is also due to release its penthouses later this spring.

Designed by Michael Laird Architects, The Wireworks is inspired by the location’s industrial heritage.
