Summary - OLD POST OFFICE, ISLE OF JURA, LAGG PA60 7XQ
3 bed 3 bath Detached
Freshly renovated traditional cottage with coastal outlook and holiday potential.
South‑easterly sea views across sheltered Lagg Bay
Set on a slight rise above sandy Lagg Bay, The Old Post Office is a freshly renovated three-bedroom detached cottage with expansive south‑easterly sea views. The house keeps traditional character—exposed beams, stripped timber doors and stone hearths—while offering modern comforts such as a new slated roof, refitted shaker kitchen with Aga, and an air‑source heat pump for central heating. Light, characterful rooms span two levels and the property sits within easily tended, informal gardens that lead down toward the sheltered shoreline.
The plot includes useful stone outbuildings with power and water, ideal for storage or workshop use. Internally the layout is practical: three bedrooms and three bathrooms/ensuites, two reception rooms with log burners, and generous attic access. Broadband is reported fast, supporting potential holiday‑letting or remote working. The setting is peaceful and wildlife‑rich, attractive to buyers seeking a coastal retreat or second home.
Buyers should note material practicalities: water is supplied from the Tarbert Estate private supply and drainage is to a private septic tank (there is a servitude right of access across an adjacent field). Mobile signal is average and the location is remote, with the nearest village services in Craighouse about 8.5 miles away. The island’s wider area is classified as remoter and agriculturally focused, with limited local amenities compared with mainland settlements.
Also important for valuation and future plans: Tarbert Estate submitted and gained approval in June 2024 for four new dwellings at Lagg, which may change local dynamics. The property is offered freehold, has an EPC rating D, and is presented as a versatile permanent home, desirable second home, or income‑producing holiday let given Jura’s visitor market. Prospective purchasers should verify servitudes, private utility arrangements, and any conservation or planning constraints linked to this coastal location.
