Set just outside Evanton on Swordale Road, this south-facing plot of approximately 0.5 acres offers a rare chance to build a family home in a peaceful Highland setting. Planning in principle (Highland Council ref 23/00910/PIP) is already granted for a 1½-storey house, and basic site clearance, a private entranceway and nearby services mean groundwork is partly complete — shortening your route to construction.
The plot sits within easy walking distance of village shops, a primary school and public transport, with Alness and the A9 a short drive away. The location combines countryside privacy with practical access to everyday amenities, making it well suited to buyers looking for long-term family living or a self-build investment in the Highlands.
There are important practical points to note: broadband speeds are very slow and mobile signal is only average, which may affect home working or connectivity. The local area is classified as very deprived and tenure is recorded as unknown — these factors could influence financing, insurance and future resale. Buyers should check full planning documentation and all service connections before committing.
If you want flexibility to design and build, and are prepared to manage on-site construction and connectivity improvements, this large, well-positioned plot offers genuine potential to create a custom home in a scenic rural community.
