Features and description


A rare opportunity to acquire an approx 7.1 acre croft with a one bedroom chalet and breath-taking Loch Ness views, located just outside Lochend, Inverness. Set in an elevated rural position, this unique Highland development and income generation, making it ideal for lifestyle buyers, investors or those seeking a tourism venture in a world-renowned location.

The existing chalet requires renovation, but benefits from an elevated outlook, and generous off-road parking. From its vantage point, the property enjoys sweeping views across Loch Ness and Great Glen, creating an inspiring setting for a private retreat or holiday accommodation.

Plans have been prepared by a local architect for the creation of six holiday twin yurts enhancing the site's development potential. The land has been thoughtfully laid out with level areas ("tables") suitable for siting accommodation and associated infrastructure. The seller plans to have the local architect submit a pre-app planning application. As a croft you are entitled to site 3 holiday static caravans as part purification of a small holiday. Currently the sellers are in the process of siting 3 holiday static caravans on the level area. The architect see no reason why this permission will not be granted. In addition, an application has been made for a grant to facilitate the installation of mains water and electricity, further strengthening the long-term viability of the site.

Loch Ness is a world famous attraction and is a short distance from the Highland Capital of Inverness where there are a variety of facilities and amenities. These include a shopping, hotels, restaurants, cinemas, a popular theatre and a mainline train station.

Great Glen have many tourist attractions including hillwalking, mountaineering, golf, country sports and water sports.

The close-knit community of Lochend is just minutes away and both Inverness and Drumnadrochit are within easy reach. With endless potential and priceless views, early viewing is highly recommended.

From Inverness follow the A82 towards Fort William. Lochend is approximately six miles from Inverness and the entrance to the property is on the right via a gate a short distance after Lochend.

Situation

The Property
Fantastic opportunity to purchase a plot of land with a two bed chalet and stunning Loch Ness views just outside of the village of Lochend, Inverness, ideal for a full time residence or holiday let. The neighbouring plot is also on the market, with its own two bed chalet, ideal for multigenerational living or further development potential. The chalet would benefit from upgrading, but it does enjoy an elevated position, plenty of off-road parking, single glazing and heating from the wood burning stove. The electric supply was previously connected to the neighbouring chalets whilst used as holiday chalets. However, the new owner would need to establish their own supply into the chalet, and the electricity supply is on the electric pole not far from the chalet. Approximately 0.11 ha, the plot could also be repurposed and developed with appropriate planning permission as neighbouring properties have successfully done.

Garden
The chalet sits on approximately 0.11 ha which has been laid to lawn. It's elevated position means that you can enjoy the peaceful views over Loch Ness and the surrounding countryside. With properly planning permission, the site could be further developed to suit the plans of any owner.
