Description

A rare opportunity to own your own private part of the West Highlands. An access track has been constructed off the main road and leads to a prepared site on the area of Plot 1, which can also provide access to Plot 2. The site of Plot 1 has been levelled for the erection of a dwelling, and a private water supply has been installed to serve two dwellings as per council requirements. Two mains electricity connections with separate meter - one for each plot - are already in place, along with a registered postal address. The site offers an excellent opportunity for either a single dwelling or two dwellings in a private yet accessible position for exploring the West Coast. Whether you are looking to build a sustainable eco-cabin, a luxury retreat or a forever family home, this land provides a superb blank canvas in one of the world’s most beautiful locations. The current plans include a covered outdoor area with decking, a wood-burning fire, a sauna and a spa pool.

The Ballygowan site extends to about 6.93 acres and sits approximately sixty metres above sea level. An access track has been constructed off the main road and leads to the area next to Plot 1. The site is very private and enjoys uninterrupted views towards Ben Cruachan and Glen Coe. The ground currently consists of rough grazing and slopes down to a small burn along the eastern boundary. The neighbouring hill ground has been planted under a native broadleaf scheme, creating an attractive natural buffer. The area also supports an abundance of wildlife, including hen harriers, golden eagles, white tailed eagles, otters and red squirrels.


The Ballygowan site at Glen Lonan is situated in a very picturesque and secluded part of the West Highlands with superb views, yet conveniently located just three miles from Oban. Oban, known as the “Gateway to the Isles”, is the main commercial centre of the West Highlands and the seafood capital of Scotland, offering an extensive range of services including four large supermarkets, specialist farm shops, the fifth-oldest whisky distillery in Scotland, independent boutiques, health and beauty salons, restaurants and bars, primary and secondary schooling, and a hospital with A+E services. An 18-hole golf course designed by the famous architect James Braid is on your doorstep. The ferry ports provide regular services to the Inner Hebridean Islands including Mull, Iona and the Treshnish Isles. Oban Airport is five miles away with daily flights to Coll, Colonsay, Tiree and Islay, while Glasgow Airport (86 miles) offers regular flights to London and a range of national and international destinations. The local area is an excellent base for exploring the West Coast of Scotland, with a wide variety of outdoor activities available, including fishing, cycling, mountain biking, sailing, diving and golfing. Distances: Oban 3 miles, Oban Airport 5 miles, Glasgow 86 miles, Inverness 109 miles (all distances and times are approximate).
