Building Plot Near North Kirk, Shapinsay, Orkney, KW17

K Allan Properties is delighted to present this attractive quarter-acre building plot on the beautiful island of Shapinsay. Enjoy uninterrupted panoramic sea views across to the Orkney Mainland, with St Magnus Cathedral visible on the horizon.

Planning permission is in place for a contemporary two-bedroom home designed to maximise the spectacular outlook (Orkney Islands Council reference 24/028/PP). The previous condition relating to improvements to the nearby passing place has been removed, and the permission was reissued on 23 January 2025. It remains valid for three years from this date.

Shapinsay offers an exceptional blend of peaceful rural living and convenient access to Kirkwall via a regular ferry service, just a 25 minute crossing, enabling convenient commuting for employment, education and amenities, with an additional out-of-hours service also available. The island is home to a thriving wildlife population, dramatic coastal scenery and a welcoming community. Local amenities include 24/7 medical cover, a primary school, a well-stocked shop with post office, a café, heritage centre and an RSPB reserve.

This plot represents a rare opportunity to build a modern home in a truly tranquil setting, surrounded by nature yet within easy reach of mainland Orkney. Early viewing is highly recommended to appreciate the full potential and lifestyle this unique location offers.
