An exciting opportunity to purchase two potential building plots for bespoke residential properties with outstanding 360-degree panoramic views over the North Isles of Orkney. Each plot measures approximately an acre and is situated in an elevated position on the ridge running along the centre of Sanday.  As a result of their prime position, they offer some of the best views anywhere in Orkney.

The land has to be seen to be fully appreciated. They may be sold subject to the purchaser achieving planning consent in principle, within an appropriate timescale.
