Description

This is a unique opportunity to acquire a plot of land in a highly sought-after location, perfect for those looking to invest in residential development. Situated within the Fortrose development, which is designed to feature just eight architecturally distinctive homes, Plot 3 encompasses approximately 0.14 acres and comes with full planning permission for a detached house and garage. The site will be fully serviced, including mains electricity, water, and drainage already in place, with an access road constructed. Fortrose is a picturesque village on the Black Isle that balances tranquility with accessibility. It boasts a variety of essential amenities such as a supermarket, medical facilities, and local shops including a butcher and bakery. There are also several cafés and restaurants nearby, enriching the community’s dining options. Families will appreciate the educational opportunities available; Fortrose Academy is recognized as one of the Highlands' top secondary schools, while Avoch Primary School is conveniently close by with school bus routes available. The surrounding area offers abundant outdoor activities for nature lovers and adventurers alike. Chanonry Point is renowned for dolphin sightings, while Rosemarkie Beach provides an ideal spot for relaxation or recreation. Additionally, the Fairy Glen RSPB nature reserve adds to the natural beauty of the region. For leisure activities, residents can enjoy an 18-hole golf course, sailing at Fortrose Harbour, as well as tennis and bowling clubs, all complemented by the historical backdrop of Fortrose Cathedral. Located just over 13 miles from Inverness, this property benefits from excellent transport links and proximity to city conveniences. With Inverness Airport only about a 40-minute drive away, it provides easy access for both domestic travel and international connections. This plot represents not only a chance to create a bespoke home but also an appealing investment opportunity due to its planning permission for multiple dwellings—an attractive proposition in today’s housing market. As detailed planning permission will be the responsibility of the new owner, this presents flexibility for customization according to personal vision or investor strategy.
