Close to the beach, the plot extends to approximately 650 sq m (0.16 acres) or thereby and benefits from having previously had a dwelling house situated on it. Surrounded by croft land, the property enjoys breathtaking views of the mountains and the Atlantic Ocean to the west, whilst also offering close proximity to local services. Planning Permission in Principle was granted in 2024 under reference 24/00029/PPP. Electricity and water services are available for connection nearby. From Castlebay, travel north on the A888 to Grean; the plot is located at the junction from the main road to the golf course and shore. The town of Castlebay provides amenities including shops, healthcare, schools, and transport links such as the Caledonian MacBrayne ferry link to Oban, located some 3 miles distant. The Isle of Barra also boasts the unique airport situated in the shallow bay of Traigh Mhòr, which is the only one in the world where scheduled flights use the beach as a runway, offering flights to Benbecula and Glasgow. A further ferry terminal with sailings to Eriskay can be found at Aird Mhòr on the north-eastern side of the island.
