RE/MAX Skye takes great pleasure in presenting to the market a unique and desirable house site extending to over a third of an acre located in the quiet crofting township of Avernish, rurally located just 7 miles from amenities in Kyle of Lochalsh.

Call RE/MAX on 01471 822900 today for more information.

LOCATION

Avernish is a crofting township of cottages and properties situated approximately 3 miles west of Dornie and 7 miles east of Kyle of Lochalsh. The single track township road lies just off the A87, and follows the shoreline of Loch Alsh ending in a track and footpath passing by ruinous croft houses and leading to an idyllic rocky promontory.

The location is well-positioned to take advantage of the excellent walking in the area, the Five Sisters of Kintail, the Cuillin of Skye, and attractions such as Eilean Donan Castle, the Falls of Glomach, the picturesque village of Plockton and the brochs at Glenelg which are all located within the locality. Primary schooling is available in nearby Auchtertyre, to which a school bus runs daily. Secondary schooling is available in the village of Plockton for which there is also a school bus service. All main facilities can be found in the village of Kyle of Lochalsh, less than fifteen minutes away and Inverness is approximately 65 miles east. 

 

DESCRIPTION

The de-crofted, fully fenced plot extends to approximately 0.42 acres (to be confirmed by title plan). The gardens were established some 40 years ago and although currently a little overgrown, present a unique and beautiful backdrop to the otherwise open rural setting.  Currently on-site is a residential caravan which has reached the end of its useful life but services are still currently connected.

The site affords outstanding loch and mountain views eastwards along the Inner Sound of Loch Alsh towards Dornie and glimpses of Eilean Donan Castle can be made out in the distance, especially when illuminated at night.

 

SERVICES

The caravan is supplied with mains water (metered), mains electricity, a BT telephone line and drainage to septic tank; all are in recent use but are likely to require upgrading as part of any new development and this is the responsibility of the purchaser.

 

COUNCIL TAX: The site is currently subject to Highland Council non-domestic rates (currently £58.87 annually).

 

PLANNING PERMISSION

Full planning permission was granted on 21st November 2014 for the erection of an architect-designed larch clad, three bedroom detached house, situated on the approximate site of the caravan, retaining most of the mature planting, utilising the topography of the site and maximising the views.

 

The proposed accommodation comprises:

Living room, conservatory, dining/kitchen, shower room, utility, entrance hall, stairs to upper level with gallery overlooking dining area & sea views, study accessing the rock to the rear, master bedroom (en-suite), 2 further bedrooms, decking balcony.

The approved scheme could be built or amended subject to usual Highland Council agreement, or a new scheme be submitted for approval, treating the permission as ‘in principle’.

 

PLANNING REFERENCE: Highland Council 14/03847/FUL

 

DIRECTIONS: From Dornie travel west along the A87 for approximately 2 miles, turn left at Nostie. Crossing the bridge and continue for approximately 1 mile. At the fork in the road bear right and the site is approximately 100m further along, on the left, with obvious mature planting.

 

VIEWING: Viewing of this plot is essential to be fully appreciated. Viewing can be arranged by calling Christine Brett on 01471 822900 or by e-mailing remaxskye@aol.co.uk

 

OFFERS: Should be submitted in proper legal Scottish form to RE/MAX Skye Estate Agents, Main Street, Broadford, Isle of Skye, IV49 9AE. Fax no. 01471 822950.
