This appealing Land Package, formerly part of the estate of the nearby Barcaldine Castle (The Black Castle) is set in an area of outstanding natural beauty and historic interest whilst enjoying the much sought after benefits of privacy and seclusion, yet is with easy access of local amenities including air, rail and ferry transport hubs.
The coastal village of Benderloch lies on the A828 Oban-Fort William road some 8 miles north of Oban, Argyll’s principal town and ferry port. The village has a good range of local facilities including a general store, coffee shop/cafe, garage/filling station, community hall, church and a highly regarded primary school. There is a local bus service and main line train station at Connel ( approx. 3 miles). Connel Airport (approx. 2 miles) handles light service, private and charter aircraft.
The subject property enjoys an elevated south-facing setting approximately 1.5 miles from the village centre along a quiet single track road which loops onto the A828 in two directions. The access point is directly opposite Barcaldine Castle, an atmospheric fully-restored Seventeenth Century tower house of significant historical interest. The 4.7 acre, or thereby, building site has already been partially prepared including the formation of a bell-mouth entrance from the public road, access track and the formation of a large parking area. We are advised mains electricity, water and telephone service connections are available nearby. A private drainage system would require to be installed by the purchaser. A traditional bespoke Shepherds Hut, with wood-burning stove, is included in the sale, if required, and is towable to an alternative position.
In addition to the development site itself, the sale also includes the nearby Lochan Dubh (Black Loch), a small inland freshwater loch of some 19 acres in area and to which access is by foot, with a right of access across neighbouring land.
Planning: The detailed planning consent can be viewed on the Argyll and Bute Council website under reference 11/02209/PP. We are advised that the completed site works as described above have secured the planning consent in perpetuity.
Exclusion: It should be noted that a right of access is to be reserved to a telecommunication mast (not included in the sale) sited within the property. This is for occasional maintenance by prior arrangement. An access spur has been formed for this to avoid compromising the privacy of the approved house site.
