A71 / Strathaven Road Stonehouse, South Lanarkshire ML9 3JL 2 OPPORTUNITY Savills is delighted to bring to the market the opportunity to acquire land extending to 5.97 acres (2.41 hectares) in Stonehouse. The site has potential for residential development, subject to planning consent being obtained. LOCATION The site is located in Stonehouse, a village within South Lanarkshire, situated 20 miles to the south of Glasgow City Centre. The village has a population of approximately 7,500 people and is positioned between the settlements of Strathaven and Larkhall, which lie approximately 3 miles to the west and north east of the site, respectively. The site is situated on the western edge of the settlement area on the A71 / Strathaven Road, which forms the main trunk road through the village and provides connections between Kilmarnock and Edinburgh. This links to Junction 8 of the M74 which provides access to the wider motorway network. Regular bus services are available on Strathaven Road with connections to the surrounding towns of East Kilbride, Hamilton and Larkhall. The nearest train station is located in Larkhall Town Centre, situated 4.5 miles to the north east. Stonehouse Primary School and Newfield Primary School are both within walking distance of the site and feed into Larkhall Academy Secondary School, which is situated 5 miles to the north east. Local convenience and retail amenity can be found in the village centre on King Street whilst Alexander Hamilton Memorial Park provides local recreation facilities to the north of the village. A wider offering of retail and leisure amenity is available in both Strathaven and Larkhall including supermarkets, shops, bars, restaurants and recreational activities.

DESCRIPTION
The site available for sale extends to 5.97 acres (2.41 hectares) and
benefits from frontage onto the A71 / Strathaven Road.
The site is roughly rectangular in shape and comprises undeveloped
land which lies at the edge of the existing settlement boundary.
The site is bound to the north by Strathaven Road, and to the east
by Stonehouse Library and Lifestyle Centre which acts as a hub
providing a wide range of activities and facilities to meet the needs
of the community. The south and western boundaries of the site are
bound by agricultural land. A balancing pond is situated to the north
west boundary of the site, outwith the area of ownership. A small
watercourse passes through the southern boundary of the site.
The surrounding area is predominantly residential in nature.
Persimmon Homes are currently on site in Stonehouse at their Avon
Water Walk development, which on completion will provide 196
homes in the village on the site of the former Stonehouse Hospital,
to the north of the A71. This follows on from Barratt Homes’
successful Lockhart Gardens development, located opposite the
site, which comprised 119 homes and has now sold out.
PLANNING
The site is covered by the South Lanarkshire Local Development
Plan 2 (LDP2) which was adopted in April 2021.
The site lies within the Stonehouse settlement boundary and has no
specific allocation within the LDP2, identified as ‘white land.’ The
site therefore has potential for a variety of uses subject to planning
consent being obtained.
An application was submitted in 2016 for Planning Permission in
Principle for a residential development of no more than 50 units
(Planning Reference: HM/15/0487) which was minded to grant,
subject to conditions, but not consented. Depending on the specific
housing mix, there may be potential to increase capacity at the site
to accommodate a greater number of units.
Any sale of the site would be subject to a detailed planning
application for the intended use. Enquiries in this respect should be
directed to the Planning Department at South Lanarkshire Council.
