Key information
Property description & features
- Tenure: Freehold
The sale of the Building Plot at Heriot Bank Farm offers a rare opportunity for a purchaser to build a three double bedroom detached home in the heart of this popular rural village which has wonderful southerly views over farmland to the Cheviot Hills. The planning permission, reference 15/01373/FUL was granted in April 2016 (currently being renewed with SBC) subject to the payment of a Section 75 developer contribution. The house plot is well located and sits between two existing houses on Main Street in Whitsome. The property will be accessed via a driveway and have parking and south facing gardens. Mains services are close to the plot and foul drainage will be via a new sewage treatment plant on site and then to a soakaway.
Location
Whitsome is a quiet rural village located in the heart of the Berwickshire countryside some 11 miles to the west of the area's principal town, Berwick upon Tweed which has a comprehensive range of shops and services.

The former county town of Duns is located some 7.5 miles away with good range of local shops, schools and services.

Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
