Description

A conveniently located building plot in a lovely woodland setting, only five minutes’ drive from the main ferry terminal of Port Askaig.

The introduction of this BUILDING PLOT situated North East of Kilmeny School House, Ballygrant, presents an opportunity to prospective purchasers to complete a house build only five minutes' drive from the main ferry terminal of Port Askaig.

The plot is set well back from the main A846 road at Ballygrant, and has an open rural outlook to the South. Surrounded by woodland on the North, East and West, the dwellinghouse to be erected on the plot will have a lovely private woodland setting. Planning Permission (Ref: 20/00817/PP) dated 11 May 2020 has been granted by Argyll and Bute Council for the erection of a dwellinghouse, installation of a biodisc treatment plant, air source heat pump and formation of access. The current Planning Permission plans are for a Hebridean Homes property to be erected on the plot. Full particulars of the Planning Permission can be viewed on the Council's website. Alternatively, the Selling Agents will provide interested parties with a copy.

Access to the plot will be taken from the public road and then over a track leading to the plot. The plot is un-serviced and, whilst it is believed that mains water and electricity are to hand, it will be the responsibility of the purchaser to make their own enquiries in that regard.

Prospective purchasers are required to satisfy themselves in relation to further planning requirements by reference to the conditions of the existing Permissions and by making their own further enquiries.

SERVICES

Connection of all services to the plot including the installation of a biodisc treatment plant to the requirements of the Scottish Environment Protection Agency will be the responsibility of the purchaser.

VIEWING

No prior viewing arrangement is necessary. Parties viewing are, however, requested to notify the Selling Agents accordingly, either before or immediately after site inspection.

DIRECTIONS

Just under 4 miles from Port Askaig Ferry terminal, take the A846 public road to Ballygrant. The site is on the right hand side of the road, with entry being taken through a metal gate which leads to the track leading to the site.
