Land with development potential

This triangular plot of land is situated on the north-east side of a private access road, leading to the A713 road at Waterside, between Dalmellington and Patna. It offers a secluded countryside setting within a picturesque Ayrshire locale, presenting a rare opportunity for acquisition at auction. The lot features a predominantly flat area of elevated ground, an access road, and provides views over the Doon Valley and Dunaskin Burn. The property is located in Waterside, a hamlet partially straddling the A713, approximately two miles east of Patna village and three miles west of Dalmellington. Waterside is set within the Doon Valley, about 11 miles southeast of Ayr. The village is recognized for its industrial archaeological significance, with Dunaskin’s architectural and historic interest centered on the former ironworks and brickworks site, and the entire village is designated as a conservation area. The nearby River Doon, in the heart of Burns Country, is a popular fishing river known for salmon and trout. The wider Ayrshire area is characterized by a landscape of rivers and valleys, popular with residents, commuters, and tourists, with attractions such as the Doon Valley narrow gauge railway. The site offers a variety of potential uses, subject to relevant planning consents from East Ayrshire Council, the local planning authority. Prospective developers are advised that a comprehensive contaminated land investigation is recommended prior to any development due to historical mine workings in the area, which may present ground contamination and stability considerations. This freehold sale offers vacant possession.
