Plot at Rathan Creagan Mor, Dalfaber, Aviemore, PH22
- Land size
- 0.5 acres
Description
A rare and exciting opportunity has arrived on the market in one of Aviemore's most desirable settings. This substantial building plot extends to approximately 0.5 acres and occupies a wonderful position bordering established woodland, with the land enjoying open views over the River Spey towards the dramatic backdrop of the Cairngorm Mountains.
Dalfaber is one of the most sought-after addresses in Aviemore, known for its peaceful, leafy surroundings and its proximity to the Cairngorms National Park, the Dalfaber Sports and Country Club and the Spey Valley Championship Golf Course. Despite this tranquil, semi-rural setting, the plot is just a twenty-minute walk from the heart of Aviemore, where a full range of shops, restaurants, cafes and the railway station can be found, offering convenient links south to Inverness and beyond.
The land benefits from direct access from Craggan Mor Road, making it an easily accessible and practical site as well as a picturesque one. We understand that when the plot last changed hands it was marketed on the basis that it could accommodate up to four good-sized houses, subject to the necessary planning consent being obtained. The plot does not currently hold planning permission and is not connected to services, and interested parties are advised to make their own enquiries of Highland Council in this regard. This represents an opportunity for buyers to secure a generous and beautifully positioned landholding within the Cairngorms National Park, with the potential to explore residential development in the future.
Land of this scale, in such a coveted setting and with this level of potential, represents a genuinely rare find in the current Aviemore property market. Building plots of this size rarely come to market in Dalfaber, making this an unmissable opportunity for those looking to design and build their own home in the heart of the Cairngorms.
