Large Grade 3.1 arable block with strategic potential near Dalkeith.
Approximately 80.59 acres of productive arable land
An extensive arable block of approximately 80.59 acres at Lawfield Farm, east of Dalkeith, offering significant scale for agricultural use or strategic landholding. Predominantly Grade 3.1 soils (James Hutton Institute) suit a wide range of arable and rotational cropping, with favourable topography and good access from Edgehead Road. Flood risk is reported as none.
The parcel presents long‑term development potential subject to planning; its size and location in an established farming area make it attractive to investors or farming enterprises seeking expansion. There is no residential accommodation on the site and the land should be treated as an agricultural/greenfield holding.
Material constraints and unknowns: tenure is not stated, and planning or environmental designations may restrict uses. The wider data indicates local area classifications as both “affluent communities” and “very deprived” for area deprivation, so local policy and market drivers should be checked. Broadband speeds are reported as fast and mobile signal average, which may support some rural operations.
Next steps before purchase should include a full site survey, title and rights‑of‑way checks, utilities and access appraisal, contamination and ecological assessments, and pre‑application planning advice if development is contemplated. These due‑diligence steps will clarify development viability and any value drivers.
