Traditional stone cottage with large plot — conversion subject to planning permission..
Large freehold plot with garden and extensive grounds
Set on a sizeable plot in an idyllic rural spot about 2 miles from Forfar, this traditional stone cottage offers a substantial renovation and conversion opportunity (sale subject to planning permission; buyer to obtain). The building is freehold and approximately 1,056 sq ft internally, with garden and extensive grounds that invite a sympathetic restoration or creative re‑layout.
The property is currently abandoned and dated, with overgrown exterior areas, mature stone chimney, and clear need for full modernisation. It has one bedroom and one bathroom in its present form, but the generous footprint and hall and room proportions suggest scope to reconfigure internal accommodation if planning consent is secured.
Practical points: there is no flood risk, mobile signal is excellent, but broadband speeds are very slow and the surrounding area is classified as very deprived. Prospective buyers should budget for a comprehensive renovation, services upgrades and the planning process required for conversion.
This is a genuine project for someone seeking a countryside rebuild or bespoke conversion: either a hands‑on homeowner with planning ambitions or an investor looking for a rural refurbishment with strong character potential. The location delivers privacy and rural views while remaining within a short drive of Forfar amenities.
