(approximate distances)

Situation

Crowhill Farm Steading is located in attractive countryside close to the coastal village of Innerwick, approximately 6 miles from Dunbar which offers a range of amenities including local shops, restaurants and schools.

The location affords excellent transport links, with the A1 less than 1 mile away making for a pleasant commute to Haddington and Edinburgh. The train station at Dunbar is on the East Coast Main Line with regular services to Edinburgh, London and beyond.

Planning permission has been granted to develop the former farm steading into 25 residential units, domestic studios / workshops and associated works. Subject to a Section 75 Agreement with East Lothian Council.

Crowhill offers an exciting opportunity for a developer to take the site forward in their own style.

Description

Extending to approximately 3 acres, Crowhill Farm Steading presents an exciting opportunity for a developer to create a modern rural community. Planning permission has recently been obtained for the conversion of the traditional farm steading. The main conditions to highlight from the Section 75 Agreement are as follows:

1.An Education Contribution of £45,642 payable in two instalments (further detail contained within the S75 Agreement – available on request).

2.The provision of 6 affordable housing units.

3.No development is to take place in the area delineated blue on the plan.

Planning reference 06/01098/FUL

Farm Buildings

In addition to the traditional farm steading, there are 3 steel portal framed temperature-controlled potato stores. This would be a useful and secure facility for storing equipment and materials during the development phase.

The buildings are well located on the western edge of the development and can be reached via an alternative access, separate from the traditional steading range.

Directions

From the north and south, follow the A1 and take the exit sign posted Innerwick and Crowhill. This is just before the A1 changes to single carriageway if heading south, and just before the A1 changes to dual carriageway if heading north.
