About us

We’re a leading Scottish housebuilder and developer of private and affordable homes, with over 80 years’ experience in the industry. At Cruden, we like to think we understand the requirements of modern living. That’s what allows us to deliver around 250 much-needed new homes every year, each thoughtfully designed and energy-efficient to support modern lifestyles. In fact, our commitment to sustainability can be seen right throughout our builds, with incorporated features like ultra-efficient, double-glazed windows, ground-source heat pumps, solar PV panels, EV charge points and more. We believe not only in creating high-quality, sustainable homes, but homes that are at the cutting edge of innovative design. But beyond the bricks and mortar, it’s our people that really make the difference. Our expert team brings exceptional customer service, a wealth of site experience and a genuine passion for what they do. This allows us to work closely with customers, architects, local authorities and subcontractors to deliver homes that surpass all expectations. With our firm foundations and flexible thinking, we continue to deliver Scotland’s homes of the future.

  • Why Retirement Living? As the number of over-55s grows, so does the demand for homes that better suit evolving lifestyles. However, the market for high-quality retirement housing has been slow to respond, leaving many older homeowners stuck in large family homes due to a lack of suitable alternatives. The Avenue is designed to bridge this gap, offering sophisticated, modern living for those aged 55 and above. With stylish shared spaces, a strong sense of community, and practical services like a 24-hour concierge, The Avenue provides a seamless transition to a comfortable, fulfilling lifestyle. Downsizing doesn’t have to be a challenge—The Avenue turns it into an exciting new chapter in life. #RetirementLiving #TheAvenue #Downsizing #LuxuryLiving #Over55s #NewChapter

  • 🌟 Celebrating International Women’s Day at Cruden! 🌟 Ahead of International Women’s Day, we’re proud to celebrate the amazing women at Cruden who are leading the way in the construction industry. From our experienced in-house sales team to senior leaders across technical, commercial, and pre-construction, women are breaking new ground and holding pivotal roles that were once considered male-dominated. At Cruden, we have been building homes since 1943, and inclusivity and diversity are at the core of our culture. It’s not about meeting quotas – it’s about recognising the unique and complementary skills women bring, which help drive our success and shape the future of our organisation. Here’s to the incredible women of Cruden and the continued journey towards a more inclusive and diverse future! 💪✨ #IWD2025 #WomenInConstruction #DiversityAndInclusion #WomenInLeadership #CrudenGroup #BuildingTheFuture

  • Being a responsible housebuilder is about more than just delivering homes—it’s about creating places that stand the test of time. We recently revisited our award-winning Hydro Gardens development in Peebles, and it was incredible to see how beautifully it has blended with its historic surroundings since its completion in 2018. Thoughtful design and careful planning have ensured that this community remains as charming and welcoming as ever. Still love it! 💚
