Property for sale

5 Newbuild House Plots (all with triggered detailed planning consent)

Great Opportunity to purchase the last phase of a small farm steading development in an attractive quiet rural setting on the edge of the small village of Auchtertool 5 miles west of Kirkcaldy.

Its “oven ready” to start with existing detailed planning permission and no section 75 planning conditions which would save the developer about £15,000/house. The building development has detailed planning consent and building warrants that were granted in 2000 which are far more relaxed than current consents and warrants e.g. no low cost housing or S75 contributions so it is easier to make a developers profit.

Lots 1-4 are 3 bedroom houses and lot 5 is a 5 bedroom house. Their sizes are as follows:
No1 – 106sqm
No2 – 76sqm
No3 – 76sqm
No4 – 105sqm
No5 – 105sqm

There are open views to the countryside to the south, east and north with the other 11 house plots having being developed to the west. The existing steading development are all on mains water electricity and drainage.

Lovely walks and right of way over many countryside paths. The primary school, village hall and church are also within easy walking distance. The village is also on a bus route into Kirkcaldy and Dunfermline.

An alternative option would be to develop the ruin into one house but a new planning application would be required.
