Description
The island, which can easily be reached by boat from the mainland, has a landing stage and ground tackle for running mooring. In order to enjoy the island and facilitate their management of wildlife conservation, the owners were granted planning consent in 2014 for a high-quality, low environmental impact cabin. Manufactured in Switzerland and of cross laminated timber construction, the cabin has been positioned and designed to withstand the weather conditions, while its curved, heather clad roof allows it to blend into the landscape. The interior is well equipped with a kitchen area, wood burning stove and two box beds, while solar panels provide power and there is an outside composting WC. There is a rainwater collection system, but drinking water is bottled.
MOVEABLES
The island and cabin are sold as seen.
The option exists to purchase the sellers’ boat by separate negotiation. The boat was designed and built by Tim Loftus, of Johnson and Loftus boatbuilders in Ullapool. He built it from Vendia marine plank, a lightweight and stable alternative to solid timber, from renewable sources and from local larch. It has a lithium battery powered electric outboard enabling a 35 minute transit to the island.
ISLAND VIEWING
Viewing of the island is limited due to weather conditions and means of access.
Either the sellers or a local fishing boat owner involved in the maintenance of the
island structures, will accompany viewings. These will only be accommodated
for those who have formally noted interest. Anyone visiting the island will
need to wear outdoor clothing and sturdy footwear and will have to be of a
level of fitness to travel by boat and climb the ladders to reach the island.
