    About this property

      Offers over £120,000 per site

      A rare opportunity to acquire one of two attractive residential building plots situated in a desirable elevated position near Downies Lane, Stromness. The sites benefit from Planning in Principle (Reference: 23/321/pip) for the siting of two individual dwellinghouses with associated access arrangements. The planning application was approved by Orkney Islands Council in December 2023.
      Set within a peaceful and highly sought-after area on the outskirts of Stromness, the plots enjoy a superb semi-rural setting while remaining within easy reach of the town's amenities, harbour, schools, shops and transport links. The location offers an excellent balance of privacy, convenience and access to the outstanding natural beauty for which Orkney is renowned.
      Each site provides the opportunity to create a bespoke family home, taking advantage of the surrounding countryside outlook and the attractive setting close to the historic town of Stromness. Subject to the necessary detailed planning approvals, the plots offer flexibility for purchasers to design a home tailored to their own requirements.
