Summary - THE OLD MILL, SAUCHIEBURN FK7 9QB
1 bed 1 bath Detached
Large secluded plot with planning in principle — ideal for a bespoke home or development.
Planning Permission in Principle granted (Stirling ref: 23/00411/PPP)
An uncommon development opportunity just outside Stirling: The Old Mill plot extends to approximately 1.18 acres with Planning Permission in Principle (Stirling Council ref: 23/00411/PPP). The site sits in a peaceful agricultural setting above the Sauchie Burn, around 300m off a small country lane, and offers broad countryside views with room for a sizeable house and substantial garden or amenity space.
This plot suits a self-builder or investor prepared to take proposals through to full planning. The PPP confirms the principle of a dwelling house but full planning and technical approvals are still required. A flood risk assessment has shown the proposed dwelling site lies outside the functional floodplain; however, part of the land is identified by SEPA as being at potential river flood risk and this will need to be considered in any detailed submission and build design.
Practical advantages include quick access to the M9, Stirling station and local services, plus fast broadband on site. Mobile signal is average and access is over a small farm road. Note the wider area is described as very deprived, and prospective buyers must be able to provide a financial reference and identity documentation to meet anti-money laundering checks before offers can be progressed.
This is a rural, secluded plot with high potential for a bespoke home or a speculative development for the right buyer. The principal benefits are location, plot size and PPP; the principal challenges are securing full planning, addressing flood risk details, and managing access and services from a remote setting.
