Summary - 2 Potential Building Sites, 3 North Ness, Lyness KW16 3NY
1 bed 1 bath Land
Generous coastal plots with panoramic sea views, ideal for a bespoke-build project.
Each plot approximately 2,350m² (0.58 acres) with coastal views
Two generous coastal building plots, each about 2,350m² (0.58 acres), sit with open views over Moansound and North Bay. Offered freehold, the sites are quietly tucked in a remote, rural community on the island and present clear scope for a bespoke home or small development subject to securing planning consent.
The position delivers genuine tranquillity and scenic waterfront aspects; there is no flood risk recorded. The island provides basic services—a primary and junior secondary school, a shop with post office, a hotel and a post box—so everyday needs are covered, though the location remains isolated and peaceful.
Practical considerations: offers subject to the purchaser obtaining planning consent will be considered. Broadband speeds are very slow here, but mobile signal is excellent. The area is classified as very deprived and remoteness can affect access to wider services and utilities; buyers should factor potential infrastructure costs and planning timelines into proposals.
These plots suit buyers seeking a private coastal site with generous landholdings and strong visual appeal—ideal for someone prepared to manage a rural build process and infrastructure upgrades. For those prioritising immediate connectivity or quick resale in a higher-demand market, this location may be less suitable.
