Description
Offered for sale is this development site situated in the charming rural hamlet of Carmichael, nestled in the South Lanarkshire countryside. The site extends to just over 10 acres with conditional planning permission passed for the construction of 16 new homes set within large plots with open country views. The potential purchaser will need to submit further applications and building warrants for the detailed house styles proposed. The approval was initially granted back in 2006 but the planning remains live due to some landscaping and access works which have been carried out by the current owner. Planning Ref. CL/03/0576
