Large edge-of-town site with PIP for c.200 homes — available whole or in two lots.
Planning permission in principle for up to 200 dwellings (LDP ref NA1113)
An outstanding edge-of-town development opportunity at Blairland Farm, offered whole or in two lots with planning permission in principle for up to 200 homes. The site extends to approximately 23.47 ha (58 acres) of undulating grassland with southerly and westerly aspects, bounded by existing housing, railway and open farmland. The Local Development Plan (NA1113) already designates the land for residential use and recent variations to the permission were granted as recently as May 2024.
Transport and digital connectivity are strong selling points: Dalry has a nearby train station with frequent services to Glasgow (circa 27 minutes), a new bypass and good road links to the A737/M8 and Glasgow Airport. Mobile signal is excellent and broadband is reported fast — useful for marketing and future occupiers. Mains services lie close to the boundary, with potential connection points identified in the technical pack.
There are clear reasons for caution. The farmhouse (including a 1-bed annex) and the agricultural buildings are in poor condition and will require full refurbishment or replacement; the farmhouse alone totals about 2,800 sq ft. New mains supplies and a dedicated access road off Blair Road are likely required for large-scale development, adding infrastructure costs. The immediate area is classified as very deprived, which may influence market values and affordable housing requirements. Sale terms include a non-refundable £25,000 deposit for the development land on conclusion of missives.
