Location:
Rhuvoult is a very small township situated
on a peninsula extending into Loch Inchard. The township is approximately
two and a half miles from the port of Kinlochbervie where there are
ample shopping facilities, a petrol station and post office. Primary
and secondary schooling exists in Kinlochbervie. To the west
of the main town lies smaller townships with secluded and clean south
facing beaches at Oldshoremore and Polin. Some fifteen miles to the
North lies the town of Durness which is popular with beach lovers,
whilst approximately ten miles to the south lies the village of Scourie.
The port of Ullapool is within easy reach being approximately an hour
and a half's drive. Further to the north west a four and half mile
trek will take ramblers to Britain's most secluded beach at Sandwood
Bay. North West Sutherland is renowned for its spectacular mountain
scenery and beautiful coastline. The area is popular with walkers
and mountaineers; fishermen come to the excellent salmon and sea trout
rivers whilst stalking is available from local estates.

Description:
The site comprises a roughly
square area of ground on a slight slope. It is enclosed by a mixture
of dry stone dyke and timber post and galvanised wire fencing. A stock
proof metal gate accesses the site from the single track road. A large
static caravan is in situ and forms part of the sale, with a concrete/timber
post and wire rabbit netting fence. There is access into the site
by way of a stock proof metal gate. The site is overgrown with rough
grass and rushes. The house site covers approximately 0.115 hectare
in area. Water, electricity and telephone services are available in
the immediate vicinity. Outline Planning Permission for the
erection of a house (up to one and a half storey) with garage was
granted in September 2006 under Planning Reference no. 06/00305/OUTSU,
details of which are available at our offices. Further, Planning Permission
was granted in August 2004 under Planning Reference 04/00301/FULSU
for the siting of a residential caravan and the installation of a
septic tank. It will be the purchaser's responsibility for the construction
of an access road to the site and for the installation and connection
to services. A further piece of land approximately 0.792 hectare in
area is separated from the house plot by a timber and wire fence with
wooden gate. This land continues south and borders Loch Inchard. A
disused barn also occupies the croft land to the west.
