An unusual development opportunity on the edge of West Calder: approximately 2.25 acres (0.91 ha) of un-zoned grassland with previous planning consent granted as part of a larger residential scheme. The site sits in the Mossend suburb where new housing is already progressing, making this plot attractive to developers or investors seeking a sizable parcel near commuter links to Edinburgh and Glasgow.
Access is routed through the Monarchs Way development and servitude/access rights have been secured; however, adoption of the roads and services in Monarchs Way is a precondition for some practical access arrangements. Utilities and full infrastructure connections are not guaranteed by the sale and further technical and statutory investigations will be required before development can proceed.
Strengths include the plot size, former planning history, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband availability, and proximity to village amenities and railway services. Material drawbacks: current planning is not active as a standalone consent, the tenure of the land is unknown, the surrounding area is classified as deprived, and development will be conditional on investigations, statutory approvals, and road/service adoption. Buyers should allow time and budget for due diligence, potential site remediation, and statutory applications.
