About

The purchaser may choose their own designs and create a home to suit their requirements with a renewable heating source and to suit their lifestyle (subject to necessary consents).

The plot (0.29 acres) is offered for sale together with a turnkey package where Mac Isaac Builders will work with the purchaser to advise, project manage, design and build a three-bedroom home on this idyllic island.
The purchaser will have the freedom to customise their new home to suit their individual tastes and lifestyle, down to the smallest detail.
This package is designed to take away the stress of a self-build having the resources on tap for your project on the Island.
