High-yield rural fixer with large plot and solar energy.
Detached three-bedroom bungalow on approx 0.5 acre plot
Set on an approximate 0.5-acre plot on Scotland’s west coast, this 1960 detached bungalow offers clear upside for buyers who can take on renovation. The single-storey layout includes a lounge with wood burner, dining room, kitchen, three bedrooms and one bathroom — a straightforward, flexible plan for either longer-term rental or holiday-let conversion.
The house already benefits from solar panels (still within a 10-year warranty), upgraded electric heating and modern double glazing, which together have delivered low running costs to date. Panoramic rural views and riverside proximity add to the site’s appeal and support the case for both capital growth and seasonal demand.
Important facts: the property requires renovation throughout, has only one bathroom, and sits in a very deprived local area despite being in an otherwise affluent postcode. There is no mobile signal on site (broadband speed is reported as fast). The freehold home will be sold at auction — buyers should allow for auction terms and pre-auction offer procedures.
This is a high-potential, hands-on opportunity. An investor or buyer happy to modernise will find a large plot, energy efficiencies already in place, and a location that has recently achieved significantly higher sale prices nearby. Conversely, those seeking a move-in-ready home should factor in renovation costs, the single bathroom, and limited mobile connectivity.
