house others for sale in Kelso

Property highlight: Generous point two eight acre site — offering excellent scope for a bespoke new home.

A fantastic opportunity to secure a well-positioned development plot within the highly sought after village of Roxburgh, just a short distance from Kelso. Extending to approximately 0.28 acres, the site sits within an established residential setting surrounded by quality housing and open countryside, offering an excellent foundation for a bespoke new home. The plot benefits from pre-planning approval for a single dwelling, providing buyers with a clear starting point for development. With services available at the kerbside, connection to mains supplies is straightforward, making the site particularly appealing to self builders and small developers seeking a manageable, high-quality project in a premium rural location. Roxburgh remains one of the Borders' most desirable villages, thanks to its peaceful setting, excellent access to Kelso and strong community feel. The village is also now benefitting from the installation of new high fibre broadband, significantly enhancing connectivity for modern living, remote working and future-proofed home design. Opportunities of this nature are rare, and demand for self-build plots in the Kelso area continues to be healthy. However, as with all development sites, interest levels can vary depending on buyer requirements and timescales. Site Access The plot is accessed via a shared driveway which is jointly used with the neighbouring property, Glebe Cottage. While the access and maintenance obligations will transfer to the new purchaser as part of the sale, the ownership of the access itself will remain with the current proprietor. This arrangement will be clearly set out within the legal documentation to ensure clarity for all parties. Planning Reference The plot benefits from pre-planning approval for one residential dwelling, granted under planning reference 25/00429/PPP.
