Croft 10 and Birch Grove Chalet, 10 Wester Alligin, Achnasheen, Highland, IV22 2HD

Extending to approximately 1.1 hectares, the owner-occupied croft is well managed and thoughtfully arranged, combining productive land with established planting and natural woodland.

The property includes an income-generating, detached, eco-conscious luxury one-bedroom holiday let, completed in 2024 to a high specification. This stylish one bedroom unit features an open plan kitchen/living room with open views to the sea, a spacious bedroom and shower room. It has underfloor heating, solar panels, a wood burning stove, and a separate laundry room and wood store. It has its own independent parking and driveway access, ensuring privacy for guests. The property has also achieved a Green Tourism Gold Award, reflecting its strong environmental credentials.

In addition, there is a separate detached, one-bedroom owner’s lodge, also with its own drive access and wood burning stove, providing comfortable private accommodation (Council Tax Band A).

Plot

There is a decrofted building plot extending to approximately 0.1 hectares, with full planning permission (renewed May 2025, ref: 25/00863/FUL). Services are already in place on site, including electricity, water, telephone and drainage, with capacity to connect to the existing treatment system, offering an excellent opportunity for further development.

Croft

The croft land itself is a notable asset, comprising managed grazing enclosed by stock fencing, an established deer-fenced woodland with direct access to Wester Alligin common grazings and a newly regenerated woodland area. There is an attractive orchard with 25 fruit trees featuring traditional Scottish heritage varieties of apple, along with plum, pear and cherry.

There are also three useful storage sheds supporting crofting activity and a wood storage shed.

The croft has a share in the Wester Alligin common grazings.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a well-developed and income-producing croft in a truly special west coast setting.
