Set on the loch edge of Bonawe, Plot 4 offers a rare opportunity to build an architect-designed six-bedroom home with panoramic views over Loch Etive. The plot sits within a small five-house development and benefits from planning consent in principle (Argyll & Bute application 24/00262/PP), allowing a contemporary house design that maximises natural light and water vistas.
Practical advantages include freehold title and confirmed on-site electric and water supply, which can reduce upfront infrastructure work. The plot is approximately 14 miles from Oban, which provides shops, schools, rail links and ferry connections; this makes the site accessible while retaining a remote coastal character.
Buyers should note material constraints: the permission is consent in principle, not a full building warrant or detailed consent, so further approvals and technical surveys will be needed. Broadband speeds are very slow and mobile signal is only average, reflecting the remoter rural location. The wider area records higher deprivation indices, and purchasers are advised to verify services, access, drainage and local authority requirements before committing.
For those seeking a striking contemporary home in a dramatic west-coast setting, this plot delivers exceptional visual potential. It suits buyers prepared to manage rural build logistics and to progress remaining approvals to realise the architect’s six-bedroom design.
