Croft and 2 house plots in the Highlands

This is a fantastic opportunity to purchase 2.2 ha of land with 2 old buildings with planning permission to renovate.

For sale is an owner-occupied croft (smallholding) with a stone house with byre attached (full planning permission for renovation), two house sites with spectacular sea views (outline planning permission for two single, one and a half or two storey houses) and a large stone steading ripe for renovation - ideal for an extended family. Total area is 2.22 Hectares, five and a half acres in old money. I will be moving a few miles to a croft with more land.

Full plans are available for the stone house to restore it as an eco-croft with a thatched or green roof, limecrete floor, self sufficient in water and power (renewable energy survey supplied which cost £250 -this amount is deductible from purchase of equipment from the approved company who prepared it for a grant application) - renewable grants are available.

A conventional renovation is an option, and the stone steading with a flag stone floor is ripe for conversion - making four dwellings possible. A large amount of old building stone is available from other derelict buildings and walls.

Mains water and power supply are close if required, a water pipe has been buried under the road in preparation. There is a well in front of the house (view 7). The only utility not available in renewable form is broadband- a phone line has been installed for this and has been supplying up to 8MB.
