4 bedroom detached house for sale

‘Harlsdale’ is situated at Symbister on the island of Whalsay which lies off the east coast of Shetland. Often referred to as the ‘Bonnie Isle’, the island measures approximately 5 miles long by 2 miles wide, and is currently connected to mainland Shetland by a regular subsidised ro-ro ferry service which operates from the terminal at Symbister just a mile or so from the house, to Laxo / Vidlin on mainland Shetland, just over 20 miles from Lerwick. The crossing time is approximately 30 minutes.
The island has a wide range of local amenities, far more than would normally be expected given its size and location. These are centered around Symbister, the main population centre, and are therefore within easy reach of the house. These include a Junior High School, two general stores including a post office, a doctor’s surgery & care centre, various social and recreational facilities plus a marina and boating club in the harbour. Sporting amenities include a superb leisure centre with heated swimming pool, games hall, fitness suite, squash court & all weather sports field, and at the north end of the island at Skaw, is Britain’s most northerly 18 hole golf course.
