31/33 Blandy offers the unique opportunity to acquire the tenancy of a croft, in the hamlet of Blandy, a thriving crofting community just outside the village of Tongue which is located on the NC500 route, on the scenic North West Coast of Sutherland. The croft land is located on both sides of the public road allowing access to both areas. On the downside is the ruins of an old Croft House and there were plans drawn up for the construction of a dwelling house on this site. Mains water and electricity are available on or adjacent to the site and drainage would be by way of septic tank. It is understood that some Grants may be available for the construction of a dwelling house, fencing and re-cultivation of the land. The land is of a good quality previously used to grow crops and enjoy truly stunning views towards the Kyle of Tongue, Coldbackie Sands, Rabbit Islands and the mountains in the distance.
