Description

This property presents a rare opportunity for those looking to invest in a site with significant renovation or redevelopment potential in the picturesque Assynt region. Spanning approximately 0.34 acres, this parcel features the remnants of a former home, which was partially damaged by fire, alongside an old barn that remains structurally sound. In addition, there is a shed and greenhouse on-site that have not been affected by the fire, providing functional storage options and additional utility during potential construction. The location is characterized by its breathtaking views of Loch Drumbeg and the surrounding Highland landscape, offering a tranquil setting that enhances its appeal for future development. The generous size of the plot allows for a variety of building possibilities, whether you envision retaining aspects of the existing structure or starting anew with your own architectural vision. Situated in the charming crofting village of Drumbeg, this area is known for its natural beauty and access to walking trails and coastal landscapes. It’s ideal for anyone looking to create a bespoke home or holiday retreat, as well as investors seeking properties in scenic yet remote locales. Prospective buyers should note that the site has not yet been cleared; therefore, assessing the viability of existing structures and their safety will be essential prior to any redevelopment efforts. Any rebuilding will be subject to local planning permissions, so it’s advisable to consult with authorities on what is permissible. Additionally, utilities such as electricity, water, and drainage may require updates or reinstatement, but there's potential here to creatively reuse materials from the old structures or incorporate historic elements into new designs. This property not only offers immediate prospects for restoration but also embodies a rewarding investment opportunity set against one of Scotland's most beautiful backdrops.
