A former wood store creating a bespoke development opportunity in a rural location near to the Scottish Border
Description
The former wood store is made up of three wooden walls and one brick with a slate roof. There is a lean to on the front of the building which has a tin roof. The wood store sits within approximately 0.46 acres.
The wood store has been subject to a pre-planning enquiry with Dumfries and Galloway Council (ref. 23/0267/HLE) which has concluded a favourable view for a future planning application/consent for redevelopment of the buildings into residential use, providing an excellent development opportunity. A copy of the pre-application enquiry advisory report can be obtained from the selling agents.
Location
The wood store is situated within a charming rural location to the south of Springkell Estate. It is conveniently located adjacent to a quiet country road whilst benefiting from close proximity to the town of Lockerbie (11 miles) and Carlisle (17 miles).
The nearest primary school is in Eaglesfield (1 mile) where there is also a pub and a village shop. Secondary schooling is available in Annan (8 miles) or Lockerbie both of which also have a variety of leisure and sports facilities and general amenities.
Carlisle and Dumfries are both readily accessible and benefit from high street shops, retail parks, large supermarkets and all the usual amenities to be expected of larger county towns.
The area benefits from excellent transport links with the M74 motorway being only 2 miles from the property and linking the north/ central Scotland to the south via Carlisle. There are excellent railway links in Lockerbie (West Coast Main Line) and Carlisle providing regular services to Glasgow/Edinburgh and south to London in less than 4 hours. There are airports at Newcastle, Glasgow and Edinburgh, all situated within approximately 87 miles, as well as a train service from Carlisle to Manchester airport. For those seeking ferry connections to Ireland, Cairnryan is accessible via the A75 trunk road which serves the region and is 80 miles distant.
