Ken MacDonald & Co are excited to present to the market this croft tenancy that extends to approximately 3.43 acres. The croft offers a fantastic opportunity for potential house sites or the erection of a single dwelling house. This provides prospective purchasers with the prospect of designing and building their dream home from the ground up – this would be subject to receipt of the appropriate planning from the local authority. All services are nearby. Located in a quiet village of Upper Bayble the subjects benefit from easy access to the town centre approximately 7 miles away . There is a local shop located approximately a 5-minute drive away that supplies necessary amenities and features a small café. The pier and sandy shoreline are only a few minutes’ walk away and the primary school with modern facilities is approximately 1 mile away making this the ideal location for a family home. This croft is regulated by the Crofting Commission, meaning that the successful purchaser/assignee is agreeing to abide by certain duties with regard to the croft land. These duties are: • A duty to be ordinarily resident on, or within 32km (20miles) of your croft. • A duty to cultivate and maintain your croft or put it to another purposeful use. • A duty not to misuse or neglect your croft. In addition, there is legal requirement to return an Annual Notice to the Crofting Commission each year, confirming whether or not you adhere to these duties. Failure to return this notice is a criminal offence, and if as a result of this, any failure to meet the duties is discovered, you could lose the croft or the right to use it. *
