'Island paradise' for a birder? Offers in excess of £80,000 sought for uninhabited patch of the Orkney Islands

Just think of the vagrant birds flitting in! The main house and outbuildings are on the market

HURRY! A closing date of noon next Thursday August 22 has been set for bids for a remote property that looks just right for a keen birder.

The former lighthouse keeper's house is available on the uninhabited island of Copinsay - one of the Orkney Islands off the coast of Scotland.

Say the agents: "Your island paradise awaits.

"The main building, a charming two-story structure, serves as a perfect haven for those desiring solitude or an extraordinary getaway. 

"Complementing the main house within an area of 1.45 acres are outbuildings, including a shed by the pier and a tractor shed, providing ample storage space.

"Modern conveniences ensure comfortable living in this remote paradise. 

"The property is equipped with Calor gas heating, and there is a fully-restored private well, complete with a generator-operated electric pump, ensuring a reliable water supply. "

"Exclusive access and transportation are assured with access to two helicopter pads at either end of the island.

"Additionally, the property includes two quad bikes and a Pico sailing dinghy, enhancing prospects for  exploration and enjoyment of the island."

They continue: "The property requires renovation, but living on Copinsay would offer a unique lifestyle marked by peace, privacy, and a deep connection with nature. 

"This secluded paradise is ideal for a private retreat, offering an escape from the hustle and bustle of urban life with unparalleled tranquillity. 

This rare opportunity to own a piece of the Orkney Islands is a blank canvas awaiting your vision. Whether you seek a personal sanctuary, an eco-living project, or a unique investment, Copinsay promises an extraordinary lifestyle.

Offers are being sought in excess of £80,000.
