This south-facing, very large plot of approximately 0.38 acres offers a rare countryside redevelopment opportunity in the Scottish Borders. An old mill sits on the site with full planning permission (Ref: 06/01446/FUL) granted in September 2006 for a three-bedroom house and double garage; the permission is reported valid indefinitely due to completion of the access track.
Practical services are partly in place — mains water is at the site and electricity is understood to be nearby — but buyers must provide a septic tank and complete on-site drainage. The plot sits down a private lane with scenic Berwickshire views and good road access to the A697 (Edinburgh c.43 miles, Berwick-upon-Tweed c.18 miles). Broadband speeds are listed as fast, with average mobile signal.
This site will suit a self-builder, small developer or investor wanting a countryside project with planning certainty. Important negatives are its remoter location, an area classified as very deprived, and an unknown tenure; these affect resale and financing options. Any buyer should verify services, tenure and planning details with the council and utility providers before committing.
