A rare 1.24-acre freehold plot with outline planning permission in principle for two detached dwellings, located close to St Boswells and the A68. The site offers a blank canvas for a small development or bespoke self-build project in the Scottish Borders, with good road links to Edinburgh and Newcastle.
Outline permission was granted in November 2021 (Scottish Borders planning refs 21/00839/PPP and 21/00840/PPP). Vehicular access is shown from the north onto the public road. Services are understood to be nearby but are not currently connected, and developer contributions will be payable as part of any full planning application.
This plot suits a developer, investor or ambitious self-builder who can manage the next stages: submitting full planning, arranging utility connections and meeting any planning obligations. The location benefits from fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and nearby village amenities, while being close to larger market towns and rail links to Edinburgh.
Buyers should note practical costs and lead times: services connection, S.75/developer contributions and full planning application work. The site sits on the edge of a small industrial estate, which should be considered when designing layouts and siting windows to minimise noise or visual impact.
