What features do
people want in a new home?
AB: Our homebuyers tell us they love our homes because of
the quality of the build and careful design. They also single
out the feeling of space and light. That’s something
we’ve consciously built into every home from the start
of the business. Oh and they love our bathrooms and kitchens.
You claim your bathrooms have continental
styling?
AB: Our sanitary ware not only looks incredible it’s
also made to last. I visited the Porcelanosa factory in Spain
and I definitely liked what I saw.
We don’t compromise on quality or design and neither
do they. Attention to the smallest styling details certainly
makes them number one for practicality and elegance in my
book.
Why build in Ayrshire?
JB: We often sell to professional people who work elsewhere
but love the kind of lifestyle Ayrshire offers their families.
So location is tremendously important. For instance, our current
development at Kilmaurs has terrific
road and rail links, and is also good for the major airports.
Who designs your homes?
JB: Alex and I start out with a very clear idea of what’s
important in our homes. We’ve got a keen young design
team who’ve caught the vision and know how to make our
ideas work. And we’ve recently been joined by John Browne
a very experienced architect who’s brought a lifetime
of skill and flair to the company. That’s an exciting
development for us and for our homebuyers.
And where will Alexander Morton
be building next?
JB: Definitely still in Ayrshire. And maybe not too far from
our current development. AB: You’ll have to watch this
