Georgetown is a desirable residential area within the outskirts of Dumfries, yet convenient for the town centre and having the benefit of a nearby convenience store, library, post office, two public houses and community hall. In addition two highly rated primary schools and nearby secondary schools. This green field site is committed for new housing in the Local Plan and would readily provide for luxury detached dwellings but has tremendous scope to increase the numbers for a higher density development.

DIRECTIONS
For the location of the premises, see the enclosed Location Plans. From Annan Road, Dumfries, take the turning at the roundabout into Georgetown Road and at the roundabout by the Spar shop turn left into Oakfield Brae. The site will be seen on your right.

PLANNING
The site has a specific mention within the Nithsdale Local Plan 2006 under Policy LN5 as a “site committed for new housing”. Three detached dwellings have been erected on the site and an adopted road and pavements have been provided which incorporate all required services. This is an excellent site for detached quality dwellings with ample room for a higher density development if required and the selling agents would be pleased to discuss the prospects for the site with you. All enquiries regarding planning consent should be referred to the Local Authority Planning Department. We understand there is an existing protected consent for ten semi detached units.
