Description

This distinct plot offers a prime opportunity for renovation or new development in an elevated rural setting near the village of Gordon. Previously approved for a one-and-a-half-storey dwelling and off-road parking for two vehicles (planning reference number 15/01249/FUL), this site presents substantial potential for investment or personal design. Situated to the east of Gordon, this property provides convenient access to local amenities, including a shop and public house, while being nestled within the scenic Scottish Borders. The surrounding area is rich in recreational opportunities, perfect for those who enjoy outdoor pursuits like walking, cycling, riding, fishing, and golf. Additionally, its proximity to larger towns such as Melrose, Kelso, and Earlston allows residents to benefit from more extensive services. Gordon boasts solid educational opportunities with a primary school nearby and access to Earlston High School—a well-regarded institution recognized among the top-performing schools in Scotland. For those commuting or traveling, Edinburgh and its international airport are approximately an hour's drive away. The recently reopened Borders Railway also enhances connectivity to the capital. The property is serviced by mains water and electricity, along with drainage via a shared BioDisk Treatment Plant. This combination of location advantages and development possibilities makes it an appealing option for savvy investors or those looking to create their ideal home in a tranquil setting.
