Glen Road, Torwood, FK5
Description
A rare opportunity to acquire a substantial building plot within the much sought after, semi-rural village of Torwood. Glen Road is a long established and highly regarded residential address which enjoys ease of access to the superb surrounding road and motorway network popular with central Scottish commuters. The nearby village of Larbert offers an excellent range of local amenities including Larbert station which provides rail links to the cities of Stirling, Edinburgh and Glasgow. The major town of Falkirk and historic City of Stirling offer a more extensive range of amenities close to hand.
The site enjoys a charming setting with wonderful views across tree lined countryside to the Ochil Hills. The plot extends to approximately eighteen hundred square meters or thereby and was granted detailed planning permission in April 2025 for the erection of a detached dwelling house and garage. Further details can be viewed by inserting the application number P/25/0137/MSC on the Falkirk Council website planning portal. The plot enjoys private access directly from Glen Road and represents a unique opportunity for the self-builder to develop a larger sized bespoke residence completed to personal standards and specifications. There are many advantages of self-build including the ability to reclaim VAT on project costs and significant savings on Land and Building Transaction Tax over purchasing an existing property. Any amendment to planning, obtaining a building warrant, ratification of planning conditions and servicing would be the responsibility of the successful purchaser. Viewing is strictly by appointment.
