Description

Four building plots are offered in Kildonan on the south coast of the Isle of Arran, with views towards Pladda and Ailsa Craig and the beach a short walk away. The listing describes planning permission as agreed in principle, while noting that development remains subject to planning permission. Suggested designs are detached bungalows or one-and-a-half-storey villas of approximately 130 to 140 square metres, with three or four bedrooms. The plots are close to a bar and restaurant, and around four miles from Whiting Bay for shops, other amenities and a golf course. Lamlash and Brodick are further along the island, with schools and services in Lamlash and the main ferry connection at Brodick. Services are not connected, although the seller understands that they are nearby. Buyers should establish the planning position, service connection requirements and build costs before proceeding.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.

47out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity

Confidence: LOW

At £69,995, this scores 47/100 (Grade E: Low Opportunity). The photographs show open, maintained grassland rather than a house, so there is no dwelling condition to assess. The four marked plots offer a distinctive self-build prospect, with coastal views towards Pladda and Ailsa Craig and the beach close by. The listing says planning permission is agreed in principle, but the plots remain subject to planning permission and services are not connected; verify the planning position, plot boundaries, access and servicing before proceeding.

Floor area is missing, so value against local £/sqf cannot be judged yet. The overall score is also held back by limited renovation-economics data: there is no renovation estimate or floor area to assess. The appeal here is the opportunity to shape a new home or development on the site, rather than to improve an existing property.

Key opportunities

  • Create a bespoke self-build or development across the four plots, subject to confirming the planning position.
  • Make the most of the southerly coastal outlook towards Pladda and Ailsa Craig.
  • The beach and Kildonan’s coastal wildlife are within a short stroll.

Key risks

  • Planning permission, plot boundaries and access need to be verified before committing.
  • Services are not connected; confirm availability, connection requirements and costs.
  • No floor area or renovation estimate is available, limiting assessment of value and project economics.
