Residential Development site extending to 3 Acres for sale.
Description
The site is located on north east edge of Polbeth between Burnside Road and
West Calder Burn and comprises a removed farm buildings previously used
as a small vehicle repair workshop by the owner.
The site adjoins the settlement envelope while the existing building effectively
already extends the built-up area over most of the site frontage.
It is proposed that the site be allocated for residential development giving
a total of around 20 dwellings within a net development area of about 1.0
hectare. This would represent an attractive opportunity for a small builder to
create a carefully tailored one-off development.
