Luxury Island Property for Sale in Scotland

An idyllic private island off the west coast of Scotland is up for sale, offering sandy beaches, puffins, seven houses, a pub, a helipad, and a flock of black-faced sheep. Sanda Island, steeped in history and charm, has been visited by kings and saints over the years.

Access to the 453-acre island is by boat or helicopter, with accommodation for up to 26 people spread across seven residential properties. The Byron Darnton Tavern, named after a shipwreck, offers a unique opportunity for the next owner to either keep it as a private getaway or generate income through exclusive stays or reopening the pub.

The island, known locally as “Spoon Island” for its shape, is also home to colonies of puffins, kittiwakes, and other bird species. With stunning views of Northern Ireland’s Antrim Hills on a clear day, Sanda Island offers a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Priced at over £2.5 million, the sale includes two additional islands, Sheep Island and Glunimore Island. With most of the accommodation recently refurbished and the potential for renewable energy sources, the island presents a unique opportunity for buyers looking to live off-grid or commercialize the property.

Interested buyers have already shown keen interest in the property, with potential purchasers falling into two categories: those seeking a private retreat and those looking to develop the island’s commercial potential. Whether you’re dreaming of tending sheep or running a pub, Sanda Island offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a piece of Scottish paradise.
