0.75 acre Potential Development Site

Great opportunity to acquire a large 0.75 acre split-level site with development potential for two or possibly three house sites, conveniently situated for easy access to Lerwick & Sumburgh.

The land is situated in a very convenient position just off the main A970 Lerwick – Sumburgh road through Cunningsburgh putting Lerwick just 10 miles to the north within easy commuting distance by car or by bus.

The land is accessed over a shared track from the public road which leads to the level front half of the site which is ready to build on with hard-core and landscaping already done. The site also includes the further grassed area up to the fence to the west, this area backing on to the open hill ground behind. Click here to see a plan of the site.

The elevated position allows for super views eastwards over the whole of the Cunningsburgh area generally to Aithsvoe and the sea including the island of Mousa to the south.

The land currently has planning permission for equestrian use however there was a house on the site before that. A pre-planning enquiry with the local planning department indicated that a change to residential use would be looked on favourably however prospective purchasers should satisfy themselves in this regard by contacting the local planning department directly.

As there was a house on the site before, service connections for electric, water and mains sewerage are on site, both the electricity and water being live.
