Permissions
Extending to around 0.15 acre, the site once housed three stone built former farm cottages which were subsequently demolished with permission now in place to build 2 x 3 bedroom semi-detached properties, each 1.5 storey. The plans cater perfectly for modern family living with a large open plan lounge to the front and sociable family dining kitchen to the rear whilst the upper floor will host three bedrooms and a family bathroom. Each property will benefit from private parking for two vehicles and a nice area of garden ground towards the rear. Due to the setting, the properties will command fine open views over the surrounding farmland. The full planning consent and associated documents can be viewed online on the Scottish Borders Planning portal using reference 19/00240/FUL. The developer will be liable for a developers contribution of £9344 which can be payable in two instalments allowing the developer the opportunity to complete and sell one build before completing the second build, if desired.
