Hillside of Row Plot, Dunblane
Stirlingshire
Offers Over £250,000
Overview
A rare opportunity to purchase a generous rural building plot with full planning permission to construct a new single detached dwelling. The plot occupies an elevated position giving far reaching views over the Carse of Stirling with the benefits of the much sought after locations of Bridge of Allan, Dunblane and Stirling.
Property Details
Planning permission has been granted for a well-proportioned 4-bedroom house with a large south facing ground floor terrace. The plot extends to approximately 2130sq/m (0.53 acres) and is located at the site of a redundant water tank with spectacular views south and west over the Carse of Stirling to the Fintry hills and the Loch Lomond National Park.
The plot benefits from a private position and is surrounded by mature agricultural fields, low-lying hedgerows and mature woodland. The proposed dwelling would offer a range of rooms spread over two floors offering versatile and adaptable living accommodation. Plans utilise “Velux type” windows to maximise light and save on space whilst complimenting the traditional pitched slate roof over both single and one and a half storey sections. The use of traditional vernacular materials including natural stone, timber cladding and wet dash render on the exterior walls and natural slate on the roof sections has been approved minimising the impact on the landscape and offering a more traditional design characterised by similar dwellings and farmhouses in the local area.
The designs include sympathetic landscaping with the planting of Rowan and Silver Birch trees across the site and use of Beech hedging to soften the aesthetic and reduce the impact of the development. A wildflower meadow is proposed over the soakaway. The site will be accessed via a proposed opening from the adjacent unclassified public road off the B824. The sellers intend to install the base for this access (to a standard suitable for construction) in autumn 2025. The sellers also intend to install the water pipe from the nearby public water main to the plot.
Further information on the building plot can be found on the Stirling Council Planning Portal (Ref: 24/00356/FUL) For sat nav purposes the postcode is FK15 9NY.

As we began to plan out the implementation details, and started to make design decisions, it became clear that changes would need to be made to the architecture defined in the previous assessment. At the start of the assessment, we scoped out which requirements and features we wanted to implement by the assessment deadline. We used the assessment brief provided to us and and took into account the amount of time we had until the assessment deadline to determine how far we wanted to take the project and what features we wanted to implement.
