Description
The House Plot at Riverview Cottage is the perfect opportunity to build your dream home! Positioned on the scenic outskirts of Lairg, this approx. 1.5 acre site enjoys panoramic views of the river and countryside. The plot has lapsed planning for a house and with a caravan, waste treatment tank, solar panels, mains water and broadband already in situ, you have the perfect base to live on-site or manage the project as you bring your vision to life.
HOUSE PLOT
Prime Off-Grid Development Opportunity. This exceptional plot which is approximately 1.5 acres, is fully equipped for immediate off-grid living, featuring 14 x 405 solar panels, 4 x 3.55kwh batteries, inverter, 10kw generator, and a waste treatment tank already installed (Ref: 22/05828/FUL). The site also has connected mains water and active broadband. The site benefits from full planning permission for the waste treatment tank and the onsite caravan, providing an immediate base. Furthermore, the plot holds lapsed planning (Ref: 20/03793/PIP) for a 1.5-storey dwelling.
ON SITE CARAVAN
Included with the plot is a fully-equipped, three-bedroom caravan—the perfect onsite base while you build. The accommodation features an open-plan lounge/kitchen with a cosy log burner and gas central heating for year-round comfort. The layout includes a shower room and separate W/C. Externally, a large storage container serves as the site’s "hub," housing the generator and solar panel meter.
LOCATION
Nestled in the picturesque Tirryside, this plot offers unrivaled views of the river and surrounding countryside. While it provides a tranquil, off-grid escape, you remain conveniently connected; Lairg is just 4 miles away, offering shops, doctors, primary school, restaurants, sailing club and both public rail and bus links. Lairg is in the centre of the county of Sutherland and can access the east and west coasts in less than an hour and the north coast in just over the hour. A very central location to experience all that the north of Scotland has to offer. Inverness and its airport is 56 miles south and has flights to all UK major airports and Amsterdam.
