Miller Homes will build their new Maplebrook development at a site on Meikle Earnock Road
A 7.5-acre site in Hamilton is to be developed for housing, with 64 new properties to be constructed and the first residents set to move in at the end of the year.
Miller Homes has announced its acquisition of the site at Meikle Earnock Road for its new Maplebrook development, which will consist of three- to five-bedroomed properties and is due to be launched this summer with a showhome then opening in autumn.
The company says it marks 25 years of building in the town, following previous developments including Highstonehall Park and nearby Highstonehall which were both completed in 2025, and described the latest project as a “significant milestone”.
Maplebrook is described as providing energy-efficient homes, with five house types including terraced, semi-detached and detached.
The company says the new Hamilton site “reflects Miller Homes’ long-standing presence and commitment to the area”, adding: “Over the past quarter-century, Miller Homes has helped create thriving communities across the region, and the team is excited to bring forward a new neighbourhood as part of its continued investment in South Lanarkshire.”
Regional operations director Andrew McArthur visited the site, in a growing residential part of the town, to mark the acquisition announcement; with the company saying the first properties are scheduled for completion in November.

He said: “As we mark 25 years of building in the area, we are delighted to be bringing forward our next development in Hamilton.
“With demand for energy-efficient family housing remaining strong, we will maintain our focus on identifying and investing in land opportunities that support the area’s expansion and align with our regional growth strategy.
“The acquisition of Maplebrook further strengthens our land position in the west of Scotland, and this latest purchase will enable us to continue delivering the new communities that South Lanarkshire requires.”
