About this home

New build development plot

Enjoys prime location on the outskirts of the popular Borders town of Galashiels. Adjacent to existing residential development, and close to the A7 trunk road, the plot extends to approximately 1.15 acres and has lapsed planning permission Borders Ref. 13/01105/FUL for the construction of nine detached properties. The new buyer may wish to either revive the lapsed permission or consider a new application for an alternative development.

An example of an alternative development is an architect outline plan showing 14 dwellings. Any revived or alternative development outcome would be subject to renewed planning approval. An attractive GDV for the development, allied with a competitive guide price, is sure to attract strong levels of interest and early expression of interest is recommended.

Galashiels is a town in the Scottish Borders, situated on the Gala Water River. It is a popular destination for visitors who want to explore the rich history and culture of the region, as well as enjoy the scenic landscapes and outdoor activities. Galashiels has excellent transport links, with regular bus and train services to Edinburgh, Glasgow, and other nearby towns. The town also has a modern transport interchange, which opened in 2015 and connects the bus and rail networks.
