Ministry of Defence selling 80 acres of land ‘suitable for development’ – with £70,000 guide price

Hillside land totalling 80 acres in Garelochhead is being auctioned off by the Ministry of Defence.

Estate agents say parts of the land ‘would be suitable for development’ subject to planning permission – but the guide price is just £70,000.

London auctioneers Lambert Smith Hampton said: “The site contains a playpark, grass area and parking for approximately 14 cars, this area is immediately adjacent to the village of Garelochhead and is surrounded by residential use.

“The remainder of the land forms the hillside above the village and includes several viewpoints over the village and the Gareloch.

“We consider parts of the property would be suitable for development (subject to obtaining the necessary consents).

“The property is in close proximity to mains water and electrical lines which would facilitate any potential development.”

The land contains EE and Arqiva telephone masts which produce annual rent totalling £8,000.

The land is being sold by the MoD’s Defence Infrastructure Organisation on July 7 – more details are available on the auctioneers’ website.
