Description

************** PRICE CHANGE ******************

A valuable, seldom available freehold 22 acres land site in the heart of a scenic, historical, archaeological area and near to the famous Crinan Canal and Argyll & Bute Headquarters at Kilmory, near Lochgilphead.
Lochgilphead is a popular town with full service facilities to include a hospital, swimming pool, GP and dentist.

The site has been surveyed by local and national building companies and is considered to be a prime site for many development opportunities.

A thriving, active and growing local community exists near to the land site at Bridgend, which is under 2 miles away and has a school, church and a successful new restaurant and local pub, recently televised, called the Horseshoe Inn.

This land site boasts a beautiful woodland boundary which backs onto one of the most famous salmon and trout rivers in Scotland, the River Add
This land site has had previous lapsed planning for a 4 acre glass house and 2000 sq mtrs of polytunnels approved, but not proceeded with. The site has recently been discussed for use as a potential site for a National Seedbank centre of excellence for Scotland.
It has main road entry via Bridgend, which gives direct road access to the site with water and power, and internet services are also available

Lochgilphead is situated at the apex of a short loch called Loch Gilp, an offshoot on the western shore of the much larger Loch Fyne.

The town grew in importance following the opening of the nearby Crinan Canal which provided a considerable short cut across the Kintyre peninsula. Lochgilphead remains a key staging post and has the best range of facilities in the region which makes it an ideal base to explore Kintyre and boasts fishing, walking and other outdoor pursuits in abundance.
