This property presents a noteworthy opportunity for those interested in sustainable living and development. It features an old croft house ripe for renovation, alongside a cherished plot of land encompassing approximately 1.44 acres that gently descends to the River Helmsdale. Planning permission has been secured for a modern single-storey, three-bedroom detached home designed by Haus Timber Frame Homes, with building warrants already in place. This project allows not only for the construction of a new eco-friendly residence but also encourages the potential for additional structures such as a garage and possibly even off-grid power solutions through wind turbines or solar panels.
The existing ruined house offers further renovation possibilities, as it may be demolished to make way for another residential unit on-site. Furthermore, connections for electrical, water, drainage, and telecom services are readily available at the property. A complete topographical survey and ground drainage test have already been conducted, ensuring a smooth transition into your planned developments. Prospective buyers are advised to consult with legal experts in Crofting Law to navigate any regulations associated with this unique landscape.
