Description
Yvonne Fitzgerald is delighted to bring to the market this fantastic owner-occupied croft, set in a truly stunning rural location with panoramic countryside and sea views.
Extending to approximately 14.8 acres, this substantial croft offers an exceptional opportunity for those seeking a lifestyle property with significant potential. The existing building on site requires renovation; however, planning had been submitted to demolish the current structure and replace it with a new dwelling (Ref: 25/00575/PIP), allowing a purchaser to create a bespoke home in this beautiful setting.
The croft enjoys breathtaking open views across the surrounding countryside, with the added benefit of distant sea views, providing a peaceful and picturesque environment. There is an electrical pylon located nearby, offering ease of connection to mains electricity, while drainage will require the installation of a new septic tank.
Registered under Crofting Number C0746, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a generous landholding in an idyllic location, ideal for those looking to embrace rural living while developing a home to their own specification.
