The property comprises a modern house which is constructed of brick/block walls and set under a pitched and tiled roof. The property is split into two apartments with accommodation set out over two floors in both, however is currently being used as one property, with potential for extension (subject to appropriate planning consent – ) to take advantage of the sea front location, mountain and sea views. Internally and externally the property is in need of some renovation and upgrading.
To the north of the residential properties is a large commercial shed which is constructed of steel frame with block walls, corrugated sheeted roof and concrete floor. The building extends to approximately 172 sq.m (18.56m x 9.25m), is ideal for storage of boats and equipment and for use in conjunction with a new business opportunity (subject to the appropriate planning consents). It would suit an ocean business in areas such as a seaweed aquaculture. The property (houses and shed) is served by a new three phase supply. With the three phase supply, there is now good potential for a wind turbine, solar or even an ocean business working with tidal or offshore energy.
There is a slipway at the end of the track with land alongside for the storage of equipment and boats. This is one of the only privately owned slipways on the south of Skye and offers great potential for any ocean orientated business. It also provides direct access to the deep water anchorage of the loch and space for moorings.
The owner has planted a large number of indigenous trees; a mixture of Alder, Oak, Birch, Rowan and Hazel.
Faoilean is situated on the Isle of Skye in the Cuillin Mountains under the iconic mountain of Bla Bhein, which is one of Scotland’s 282 ‘Munros’ (peaks over 3,000 ft.).
Skye is famous for its breath-taking scenery and diverse wildlife. It is a haven for bird watchers, artists, walkers and photographers. The island also offers a range of more energetic activities such as kayaking, abseiling, diving and mountain biking. The dramatic Cuillins are perhaps the most striking of all Skye’s natural attractions and lure hill walkers and mountaineers from all over the world. Deer stalking, fishing and shooting are also available on the island. The largest settlement on Skye is Portree which has a good range of local services and amenities, such as a swimming pool, restaurants, cafes, schools, shops and hotels. There is also a commercial zone with companies serving trades with building materials, electrical and plumbing equipment, home furnishings etc.
Broadford provides the base town for the house, with the provision of a wide range of local services. Elgol has a small local shop.
The City of Inverness provides a full range of commercial, educational, recreational, retail and transport facilities, including Inverness Airport, 9 miles east of the city, which provides frequent flights to domestic and international destinations.
