Description
This property is a unique development opportunity, comprising two small, redundant buildings and over an acre of surrounding land, situated next to a minor public road in the picturesque Tayvallich peninsula in Argyll, Scotland. The Old Smithy and its adjacent log store have been secured with corrugated metal roofs, and the site has no existing planning consent, leaving potential buyers free to devise their own plans and seek the necessary permissions. The peninsula is rich in natural and cultural history, with three Special Areas of Conservation and five Sites of Special Scientific Interest, and offers stunning scenery, a thriving community, and a range of outdoor activities, including sailing, fishing, and hiking. The nearby village of Tayvallich has a community-owned shop, hotel, and primary school, as well as a Community Hall hosting various events throughout the year. With its unique blend of natural beauty, cultural heritage, and community spirit, this property presents an exciting opportunity for those looking to create a unique and sustainable development in a truly special location.
