Learn about our plans for an exciting new community in Dunfermline
We are creating a new neighbourhood and place to call home near Dunfermline.
Whitefields, Dunfermline will offer around 1,400 new homes with an impressive choice of detached, semi-detached, and terraced high-quality new homes and apartments, which are perfect for a wide range of potential buyers including first-time buyers, young couples, downsizers and families.
As well as a new primary school and a provision for shops and community facilities, there will be new cycleways and pedestrian footpaths to encourage green active travel throughout this impressive development with plans to connect this new community with the existing local communities of Kingseat and Halbeath.
We also plan to incorporate the new Northern Link Road into the development, which will include pedestrian crossings to provide a safe route to schools, along with key transport infrastructure improvements to Kingseat Road (West) and Whitefield Road (B912).
The Whitefields masterplan will include meadow grasslands to provide future homeowners with access to beautiful green open spaces to encourage healthy and sustainable living.
About the development
The Masterplan
We want to create a thriving new community close to Halbeath, Dunfermline. Whitefields will provide a wide range of detached, semi-detached, terraced quality homes and apartments, and the wider masterplan vision includes a new primary school, shops, community facilities and land for employment uses. The Northern Link Road, a new distributor road serving the north of Dunfermline, has also been incorporated into our proposals.
The development will commence in the west of the site with an initial phase of around 340 new houses, 25% of which will be affordable homes. This phase of the development will also deliver part of the new Northern Link Road and the landscape framework associated with this area of the site.

We believe it’s our responsibility to support our communities, so that people are proud to call them home. That’s why we regularly donate time and money to local causes, and are passionate about investing in the areas we build.
We’re committed to building greener, healthier homes for us all. From energy efficient fixtures and fittings, to cutting our carbon emissions, and enhancing existing green spaces, we build sustainability into everything we do. Find out more about Taylor Wimpey's sustainability strategy.
Our new Environment Strategy sets out how we intend to help protect our environment for future generations by partnering with suppliers to reduce the impact of the homes and developments we build. We will make it easier for our customers to live a sustainable lifestyle. Our strategy focuses on the key environmental impacts for our business: climate change, nature, resources and waste.
