Summary - Shenavallie Farm, Benderloch, Oban, Argyll and Bute, PA37 PA37 1QU
5 bed 2 bath Land
Spacious coastal holding with strong farming and development potential.
About 154.31 ha (381.30 acres) of pasture, grazing and woodland
Shenavallie Farm is a rare West Coast holding of about 154.31 ha (381.30 acres) combining a traditional five-bedroom farmhouse, substantial outbuildings and a continuous block of pasture, grazing and mixed broadleaved woodland. The steading sits in a secluded coastal position with panoramic outlooks over Loch Linnhe and two tidal bays — strong appeal for agricultural, recreational or conservation-led uses. Modern agricultural buildings and yard space provide immediate utility for livestock or machinery storage.
The farmhouse is stone-built and spacious but requires modernisation; there is clear potential to refurbish and extend using adjacent outbuildings, subject to necessary consents. Several traditional and modern sheds, cattle courts, a workshop and handling pens give the holding ready-made infrastructure for continued cattle or sheep enterprise, or conversion/development opportunities for alternative uses where planning permits.
Environmental and sporting value is significant: large areas of mature broadleaved and ancient woodland, designation within the Lynn of Lorn National Scenic Area, and shoreline access to two tidal bays. The mix of in-bye pasture and upland grazing suits continued livestock production; historical pedigree Highland cattle herd and local market access (UA Oban Livestock Centre) add operational credibility.
Buyers should note material limitations: the farmhouse needs renovation, broadband speeds are very slow, and the wider area records high deprivation measures which may affect local services and markets. There are existing third-party access rights, wayleaves for overhead electricity lines, and BPSE payments for 2025 will be retained by the seller. The property is offered whole or in two lots; any change of use or development will require planning permission and consents.
