Description

This exclusive offering encompasses approximately 14 acres of croft land on the serene island of Graemsay, featuring a dilapidated dwelling that presents significant renovation potential. Investors and developers will find this site particularly appealing, with the possibility of obtaining planning permission for a new build (contingent upon standard consents). The property's prime location affords stunning, unobstructed views of the sea, looking towards Hoy and the Orkney Mainland, ideal for those seeking a peaceful retreat immersed in nature's beauty. Graemsay, often referred to as 'Orkney’s Green Isle,' boasts rich wildlife, historical significance, and dramatic coastal landscapes. It's home to two historic lighthouses constructed by Alan Stevenson in 1851. Despite its tranquil atmosphere, the island is well-connected via a regular ferry service that facilitates easy access to Stromness and local amenities. Educational facilities include Stromness Primary School and Stromness Academy. Basic services such as electricity and water are believed to be in proximity to the site, making it a promising project for those looking to create a bespoke residence in an enviable location.
