This offering is a substantial 10.47-acre parcel of grazing land on the edge of Dalkeith, presented as a rural investment or smallholding opportunity. The ground is gently sloping and well enclosed, currently used for livestock with access taken from the A7 and a northern access via Kingsgate track. Connectivity is strong for a rural site, with excellent mobile signal and fast broadband noted.
The land is sold at auction with a closing date; buyers should note it is currently occupied under an annual grazing licence. Tenure details are not provided and local planning allocation is unconfirmed — both are material for change-of-use or development prospects. There is no flood risk recorded, but potential purchasers should review drainage, habitat constraints and any protected area designations before bidding.
This parcel will suit buyers seeking agricultural grazing, equestrian use, or a strategic holding with longer-term redevelopment potential, subject to planning. The immediate practical advantages are size, enclosure and direct roadside access; the principal uncertainties are planning status, tenure, and the current letting arrangement. A full title check, planning appraisal and measured site survey are recommended prior to purchase.
Because the site falls within an area described as very deprived, consider local market dynamics and possible grant or subsidy eligibility for agricultural or conservation uses. The auction sale format and unknown tenure increase transactional risk, so budget for professional due diligence costs.
