- Planning consent validated for a four-bedroom detached house (13/00649/AMC)
- Sheltered by mature woodland; north-facing uninterrupted countryside views
- Mains water and electricity nearby; foul drainage requires private system

- Rural location: Elgin ~15 miles; Inverness/Aberdeen ~57–58 miles
- Local area classified as very deprived; consider service and resale impacts
A rare 1.17-acre building plot in Cossack Wood, set in scenic Speyside with planning consent already validated for a four-bedroom detached dwelling and double garage. The site is sheltered by mature woodland to the south and offers open countryside views to the north, creating a private rural setting within walking distance of the Macallan Distillery and local amenities in Archiestown.
Practical services are close to the boundary: mains water and mains electricity are nearby, and broadband and excellent mobile signal are available in the area. Foul drainage will require a private system to meet statutory requirements. Partial tree clearance and commencement works have validated the planning consent (ref: 13/00649/AMC), reducing lead time for a purchaser who wishes to build to the approved plans.
This plot will suit a buyer looking for a countryside family home or a bespoke project in a celebrated whisky-producing region. Travel times are rural — Elgin is about 15 miles for supermarkets and rail links; Inverness and Aberdeen are roughly 57–58 miles. Prospective purchasers should satisfy themselves about services, access, and build costs before committing.
Note: the local area classification indicates rural traits and higher levels of deprivation in the wider area; purchasers should consider implications for local services and resale. Unrestricted viewing is possible, but neighbouring privacy should be respected.
