A substantial development opportunity on the A7 corridor, this roughly 22.5-acre site at Redheugh, Gorebridge, offers flexible plot sizes from 1 acre upwards and direct frontage to the main arterial route between Edinburgh and Galashiels. The site benefits from a resolution to grant Planning Permission in Principle for Class 4 (office, R&D, light manufacturing) and Class 5 (general industrial) uses, with potential convenience retail identified in the local plan, making it suitable for a range of employment-led schemes.
Two access points off the A7 are proposed and the land is largely undeveloped, with a lower-level tree area to the north-west and higher ground across the remainder. The location is strategically placed about 13 miles south of Edinburgh, close to Newtongrange and Gorebridge railway stations, and adjacent to a planned 700-unit residential expansion — all of which strengthens long-term occupier demand.
Important considerations are that planning is at resolution stage and the grant of permission depends on an updated s75 agreement; full implementable consent is not yet in place. The site sits within a very deprived local area, which may affect labour market, service provision and consents; substantial infrastructure and servicing will be required for development. Plots can be made available on a long leasehold basis and design & build opportunities are available for purchasers prepared to take the next steps.
For investors and developers targeting strategic employment land near Edinburgh, this parcel offers scale, A7 visibility and planning momentum — but it requires costed delivery of access, services and completion of the s75 to unlock its permitted uses.
