Renovation work on almost 20 bungalows in south Belfast has been completed.

The Northern Ireland Housing Executive (NIHE) invested £715,000 in the programme, which involved upgrading 18 bungalows in the Annadale area.

As well as providing new and extended kitchens the bedrooms were also enlarged.

Carole Johnston, NIHE south Belfast Manager, said: "We spent around £40,000 on each home included in the scheme.

"Kitchens were entirely remodeled and we also took the opportunity to do other upgrades.

"This included extending the properties to give added floor space, increased provision for vital appliances and extra natural light.

"We know that residents will benefit from their extended kitchens and hope the work will improve their day to day lives in their homes."
