Farm Building Near Nether Onston, Stenness, Orkney
- Land size
- 0.4 acres
Description
These former farm buildings are set in approximately 1700m² (0.40 acres) or thereby and enjoy beautiful views over farmland and the Loch of Stenness.
The stone-built building may have architectural and/or historic merit, and the integrity of this building must be retained as part of the building process so the siting of any new house to the east of the outbuildings would be an advantage. Depending on the plans submitted, it may be possible that a second house could also be built at Nether Onston. Nether Onston is within the Hoy and West Mainland Scenic Area and the Inner Sensitive Zone of the Heart of Neolithic Orkney World Heritage Site, and a high quality of design will be required.
The stone-built building extends to 10.9m x 4.4m approx. and the adjoining former store 13.5m x 6.2m approx..
Prospective purchasers should note that as part of the planning application, an initial archaeological evaluation will be required. Depending on the nature of the proposed development of the site further evaluations may be required, the purchaser will be responsible for the evaluations.
The purchasers will be liable for taking services to the site, mains water is believed to be close by.
