Learning from the past...Building for the future

Welcome to Chapelton of Elsick

The Chapelton of Elsick scheme will be an innovative sustainable community designed to meet the requirement for new homes in the Portlethen – Stonehaven corridor within the Aberdeen City and Shire Structure Plan. It is being promoted by the Elsick Development Company, a family controlled company, representing the Duke of Fife and neighbouring landowners, covering a substantial single area of land in the vicinity of Portlethen and Newtonhill. As a family, we are committed to promoting a development that builds on the North East’s reputation for quality of life and of which we, and future generations, can be proud. The scale of the site and long term control of it gives us the ability to achieve this.

We aim to create a community that is happy in itself and has a strong sense of place, rooted in Aberdeenshire such as the hypothetical neighbourhood shown above.
