Description
BRIEF RESUME
- Approx 0.815 ha (2.01 acre)
- Developable area relatively level
- Accessed directly off B646 - Potential for Residential Development
THE SITE
The site is readily accessible with Main Street (B6461) running along the north boundary and C97 (Eccles to Birgham Road) to the east boundary. Access is directly off the B646. The purchaser will be responsible for the construction of access to serve the development.
PLANNING
The land lies within the Eccles Village Development Boundary as identified in the Scottish Borders Local Development Plan 2 (adopted August 2024). Subject to satisfactory design, layout and compliance with all statutory planning requirements, it is anticipated that residential development will be supported.
There are no known planning applications currently in progress on the site. Prospective purchasers should make their own enquiries with Scottish Borders Council Planning Department.
LOCATION
There are a number of similar developments in the village including Stable Park and Kirkfield.
The site is situated to the south of the B6461 public road, within the centre of Eccles Village, approximately five miles east of Kelso in the Scottish Borders.
Eccles is a small, attractive village within the parish of Kelso, with historic roots understood to date back to the sixth century. The name "Eccles" derives from the Brittonic word eglwys, meaning church.
Kelso is a popular and affluent market town offering a broad range of amenities including independent retailers, supermarkets, restaurants, schools, and professional services. It has a population of approximately 6,900 as per the 2021 Mid-Year Population Estimate, an 11.47% increase from the 2001 Census (6,190). The ten-mile catchment is approximately 27,858, with a median household income of £30,828 (Source: Costar).
Eccles lies around 45 miles south of Edinburgh and benefits from good road links via the A697 north to Edinburgh and south to Newcastle. Berwick-upon-Tweed (approx. 20 miles east) provides access to the East Coast Main Line rail network. Regular bus services link Eccles and Kelso with surrounding towns including Duns and Berwick.
SERVICES
It is understood that mains electricity, water and foul drainage are available in the village. The purchaser will be responsible for confirming availability and capacity, and for the installation of all required servicing infrastructure.
AREAS
The site has been measured from an OS based mapping system based on our assumptions as to boundaries to an approximate area of 0.815 ha (2.01 acre) or thereby.
ENERGY PERFORMANCE
As this is undeveloped land, an EPC is not applicable at this stage. Should any existing buildings be retained or new units developed, the developer will be responsible for securing relevant EPC documentation in line with statutory requirements.
DEVELOPER CONTRIBUTIONS
Where applicable the purchaser will be responsible for any Developer Contributions levied by Scottish Borders Council in relation to their developer proposals.
TENURE
The site is held under Absolute Ownership (equivalent to Freehold).
METHOD OF SALE
