Description

Yvonne Fitzgerald is delighted to bring to the market this attractive site which previously had planning granted for two houses. This level site is accessed through a private road and would be an excellent self build project for a family or a developer. Although planning has lapsed (07/00187/OUTCA) we see no reason why it could not be reinstated and the site also has water and electricity nearby. This site would most probably be connected to mains drainage, and is fenced off to the front and side elevations. Site one extends to 441m2 and site two is 459 m2 in size.
Located in the village of Halkirk, the site is just a few minutes’ walk to a convenience store, the local butchers, a post office and hotels. The primary school is within walking distance and there are coach links both North and South. Thurso the most Northerly town in the Highlands is a short car journey away, and Wick, the second largest town in Caithness is a twenty-minute drive. The Caithness General Hospital is in Wick as well as the John O Groats Airport and a number of national stores.
