Land for sale in Falkirk FK1, 0 Bedroom

An excellent opportunity to purchase a building plot within the popular village of Shieldhill. Centrally situated the plot enjoys easy access to village amenities including well-regarded Shieldhill Primary School, a short walk away. The plot enjoys wonderful, rear views across the Forth Valley to the Ochil Hills.

Extending to approximately 1180 square metres, in excess of a quarter of an acre, the new build would enjoy the benefit of excellent parking and generously sized gardens. An original application in 2003 for planning has lapsed however the current owners have a current re-application submitted to Falkirk Council in March 2019. It is expected outline planning permission will be granted for a detached dwelling house. Formerly two traditional cottages occupied the site and services may lie to hand. Detailed planning applications and obtaining a builders’ warrant would be the entire responsibility of any successful purchaser. This is a unique opportunity for the self -builder to create an individual home to personal specification. An added attraction for self-builders is both the avoidance of Land and Building Transaction Tax and the ability to reclaim VAT on a self-build project.
