The Old Stables are ripe for conversion and provide a superb and rare development opportunity to renovate a derelict Cottage and former Mill with outline planning permission granted for change of use, plus permission to erect one new build within the adjacent courtyard. They enjoy a tranquil rural setting on the outskirts of the popular village of Ayton yet within five minutes walk of the local amenities and with good road links to Edinburgh via the recently upgraded A1 carriageway.

LOCATION
Ayton, with its baronial style Castle creating an imposing silhouette as you enter the village, is well served with local amenities including bank, general store, garage, post office, primary school, bowling green and pubs. A wider variety of shopping, educational and sporting facilities are available in the pretty seaside resort of Eyemouth, two miles distant. Edinburgh is within easy commuting distance with the recently upgraded A1 nearby and the main railway station at Berwick upon Tweed, some eight miles south.

DIRECTIONS
Immediately upon entering the village from the South, turn first left opposite the main entrance to Ayton Castle with The Old Stables situated a field or so back from the main road.

The existing derelict buildings comprise a former stone built Cottage, adjoining Stable Block and old Mill, all of which look into a central courtyard, with outline permission granted to renovate and transform these into two delightful detached homes. Permission has also been granted to erect one similarly styled new build within the Stable Yard.
