A unique and rare opportunity to purchase this large serviced site situated in the township of Exnaboe with picturesque sea views overlooking the tidal lagoon known as “The Pool of Virkie” and Sumburgh Head in the distance.
The former house and office area are in an uninhabitable/derelict state and would benefit from demolition or extensive reconstruction and renovation.
The full site extends to just over 0.2ha and includes two large Garages situated to the rear of the former house, ideal for those with caravan, boat or car storage needs or as a workshop/studio. They also present a perfect storage/construction base for the development of the remainder of the site.
The size of the site, combined with the existing buildings, present multiple development options, including for more than one dwellinghouse to be erected, subject to the appropriate consents being obtained. This would be ideal for those seeking a self-sufficient lifestyle with the opportunity for separate “work-from-home” accommodation or those wishing to live side-by-side with family.
Exnaboe is part of the District of Virkie which lies at the very south of Shetland mainland, near to Sumburgh Airport. Dunrossness is close by further North with its primary school, grocery shop, petrol station and agricultural shop.
The boundaries comprise of a tarred driveway leading to a large gravelled parking area, which space provides for the possibility of a polytunnel for self-sufficiency or additional buildings.
The established garden has bushes and flower beds with ample room for spacious vegetable patch to be cultivated.
