Summary - Former Castle Site, Rossie Braes, Montrose, Montrose, DD10 DD10 9TB
1 bed 1 bath Plot
Planning consent for a significant bespoke house with private access and basin views.
Freehold plot on former Rossie Castle site
Set on the historic site of the former Rossie Castle, this generous freehold plot offers an elevated, secluded position with sweeping views over Montrose Basin. Full planning permission exists for a large bespoke house of about 350m2 (excluding double garage), giving an immediate, permitted build option for a substantial family home. The site includes the privately owned access track and sits approximately 2 miles from Montrose town centre, combining rural privacy with convenient proximity to local shops and services.
A previous 2016 approval for two dwellings remains a notable opportunity for alternative development; any buyer wishing to pursue two houses should undertake their own due diligence and consult Angus planners about reapplying. Utilities and services should be checked in advance—broadband speeds at the site are reported slow, though mobile signal is excellent. The plot is very large (about 0.83 acres / 3,373m2) and partly wooded, offering scope for landscaping, privacy screening or multiple building footprints.
This plot will suit a developer or purchaser seeking a high-spec individual house in a dramatic rural setting, or an investor willing to explore the potential to restore the former two-dwelling consent. Be aware of local context: the wider area is classified as remoter rural communities with higher area deprivation indicators, which may affect service provision, planning considerations and resale dynamics. On the positive side there is no reported flood risk, and the private access track secures direct entry to the site.
