Land
Key information
Property description & features
- Tenure: Freehold
- Plot of land circa 1/4 acre near the village of Tolstachaolais on the beautiful Isle of Lewis
- In an elevated position with incredible open views of Loch a' Bhaile.
- The plot allows you to self-build, which in essence allows you to participate in the full process of building your dream home.
Tolstachaolais is a charming, small and peaceful village close to many archaeological points of interest and may be familiar to you from BBC Cbeebies' Katie Morag programme, much of which was filmed there. You can easily access the plot from the main road and note the boundary to the title from the yellow-tinted pegs on site. There are services located nearby.
The plot allows you to self-build, which in essence allows you to participate in the full process of building your dream home. It also allows you to make your new home as energy-efficient as possible.
While full planning permission will be required, in September 2022, planning permission in principle was granted to erect a dwelling house, create access and install a private drainage system: the planning reference number is 22/00243/PPP. Further details can be found on Comhairle nan Eilean Siar (Western Isles Councils) website.
Prospective purchasers should make their own enquiries directly with their local Planning Department.
The existing site can be used as a temporary borrowing pit to extract aggregates to form the access and site groundworks.

Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on April 25, 2023
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
