Description
An extremely rare development opportunity to acquire one of two outstanding elevated plots with spectacular sea and mountain views. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to build a truly stunning home.
A rarely available opportunity to purchase a significant and sought-after plot of land along Argyll's stunning coast, situated in an elevated position between vast hill ranges and the coast, including panoramic views over to the Paps of Jura. The plot allows ample space for a substantial house with surrounding gardens and parking. The outline planning permission for the plot and access, along with associated shared services has been approved and can be viewed on Argyll and Butes planning portal under reference number 23/01088/PPP.
Situated in a particulary beautiful spot, the site of the plot is visually stunning, occupying a highly desirable position against a backdrop of green rolling hills and fields leading down to the rugged coast with its sapphire-blue waters. The site is relatively flat and open and it is an amazing location for a forever family home or even a second holiday home, providing an idyllic coastal lifestyle. Buyers also enjoy the freedom to develop their own property designs and plans, to create the house of their dreams and when it comes to design proposals, there should be additional freedom in the style, size, and architecture as there are no tree preservation orders (TPO) or other conservation designations covering the site so you can let your mind run free.
As mentioned, buyers of the plot will be given the freedom to create their own detailed house designs, allowing you to develop an ideal residence bespoke to your own personal needs. Whilst the house design will be subject to planning permission (STPP), it should be possible to incorporate modern components and architectural styles, but at the same time remain in harmony with the surrounding area. It is an excellent and rarely available opportunity in this area to create a very special residence.
For added convenience, there is mains electricity running over the site and shared private water and shared private septic tank with one other property (Plot 2).
This area is thought to be one of the most scenically attractive areas of Argyll and is sheltered by the surrounding hills. The nearby focal points of Castle Sween and the beautiful sandy beaches at Kilmory and just a short distance away and are often all to yourself, how perfect. Primary schooling is available at the nearby village of Tayvallich which also has some excellent eateries and, with secondary schooling in Lochgilphead, where a wide range of shops and facilities can be found what more could a buyer ask for. Plots such as these rarely come to the market and early enquireis are highly recommended.
