Description

A rare opportunity to acquire Plot 3 at Hilton Farm, Buckie, a substantial serviced building plot extending to approximately 1400 square metres, occupying an elevated position within a desirable semi-rural development.

Enjoying spectacular panoramic views across the surrounding countryside towards the Moray Firth, this exceptional plot offers the perfect opportunity to create a bespoke home in a peaceful rural setting, while remaining within easy reach of Buckie and local amenities.

The site is fully enclosed with fencing and gated access already in place, providing a secure and well-defined plot ready for the next stage of development.

Planning permission has been implemented through commencement of works, ensuring the consent remains valid (Planning Ref: 13/01148/APP). Approved house plans are available and demonstrate the potential for a substantial detached family home, however these designs are indicative only and any future proposals would be subject to the relevant consents and approvals.

In addition, architectural design services are included within the sale price, allowing purchasers the opportunity to adapt the approved designs or develop a bespoke scheme tailored to their individual requirements, subject to the necessary planning, building warrant and statutory approvals.

Hilton Farm enjoys a sought after semi-rural setting on the outskirts of Buckie, offering the perfect balance between countryside living and convenience. Local schools, shops, leisure facilities and the stunning Moray coastline are all within easy reach.

The postcode AB56 5AE will take you there if you are using satnav. There is a sign at the end of the road, pointing towards Drybridge. Follow the road for around a mile and the plots are on the right. For reference, there is a new-build house on Plot 1.
