Description
Set on the south-east side of Torduff Road, this exceptional parcel of land extends to approximately 2.5 hectares, or 6.1 acres, on the edge of the Pentland Hills Regional Park. The scenic location sits privately within its historic surroundings and offers a potential opportunity to acquire a substantial piece of land in a sought-after Edinburgh setting.
The land lies beside Bonaly Tower, the William Playfair designed, Category A (Grade I) listed house, and forms part of the former policies and farmlands historically associated with the estate. The setting, with its rolling countryside, mature greenery and far-reaching views, creates a wonderful sense of seclusion, while still being only five miles south-west of Edinburgh city centre.
The land is conveniently accessed in two places via Torduff Road. It has a gentle south-facing slope and water can be accessed from the burn that runs along the southern boundary. The land is situated within Edinburgh's Green Belt. Any planning enquiries should be addressed to the Planning Department of the City of Edinburgh Council.
