This substantial detached property presents a remarkable opportunity for redevelopment in the picturesque village of Garrabost, situated on the eastern edge of the Isle of Lewis, around 6.5 miles from Stornoway. Spanning approximately 185 sq. metres and designed in an L-shape, this building was originally comprised of two separate homes before being merged into one larger unit. Currently featuring two public rooms, a spacious kitchen with an adjoining utility area, seven bedrooms, an office, a bathroom, and two WCs across two levels, it provides ample space for various potential renovations.
The exterior is equally appealing with a sizable rear garden, workshop/garage space, and off-street parking available. There exists significant potential to reconfigure the property back into two distinct residential units—ideal for one main residence paired with an adjacent holiday rental or possibly as two independent holiday rental properties—subject to necessary planning permissions. While renovation works are needed throughout to restore the property's function and aesthetics—reflected in its competitive pricing—the location is sure to attract diverse interest from buyers seeking various end-use possibilities. Notably, the property is currently uninhabitable and therefore does not come with a Home Report.
Garrabost offers stunning natural surroundings with local amenities easily accessible and more comprehensive options found in nearby Stornoway. The surrounding area draws tourists eager to explore scenic walking trails and local artisan crafts.
