Secluded island plot with planning potential and renovation scope.
14.8 acres of freehold coastal land with wide Scapa Flow views
A substantial 14.8-acre freehold holding on Graemsay with a traditional stone cottage in ruinous condition. The site offers sweeping coastal views across Scapa Flow towards Stromness and presents genuine scope to either renovate the existing one-storey cottage or seek consent for a newly erected dwelling, subject to necessary planning approvals.
The cottage is a small, low-ceilinged traditional stone building and is described as derelict; it requires full renovation or rebuilding. Utilities and connectivity are limited—very slow broadband and average mobile signal—and the local area is a remoter, very deprived community. Buyers should expect to manage access, services and refurbishment costs typical of remote island projects.
This holding will suit an investor, self-builder or someone wanting a secluded countryside or coastal retreat with substantial land. The combination of a large plot, coastal outlook and planning potential creates long-term value, but the purchase is best for a buyer prepared to take on a remote-site project and pursue planning consents themselves.
No guarantees are given about planning permission; any development or renovation will need formal application and consent. Flooding risk is recorded as none, tenure is freehold and the guide price is £90,000.
