General Information
The site is situated in the attractive setting of Nesbister, a popular rural location overlooking Whiteness Voe, conveniently situated within easy reach of Lerwick just 10 miles away.

The site is situated on the east side of the Nesbister side road, its elevated, sloping position allowing for fine views westwards over the voe. It has already been decrofted and is a larger than average sized plot (see plan).

There is a local shop about a mile away on the main Westside road (just past the Nesbister / Wormadale junction), a primary school about a mile further on at Whiteness, plus a second shop with post office & fuel at Weisdale, a mile past the school. The Westside bus service to Lerwick stops at the Nesbister / Wormadale junction.

The site has full planning permission for a four bedroom detached house with a garage however these plans are not proceeding. The site therefore offers an opportunity for a fresh application for an alternative design to suit the purchaser, although prospective purchasers should satisfy themselves in this regard by contacting the local planning department directly.

The site will have a right to create an access from the track to the north of the site as shown on the plan. Service connections for drainage, water and electricity are understood to be adjacent to the site however prospective purchasers should satisfy themselves in this regard. The purchaser will be responsible for complying with all planning conditions.

Property location
To reach the site take the main Westside road towards Whiteness & Weisdale, turning southwards to Wormadale & Nesbister opposite the bus stop at the bottom of the hill at Wormadale. Cross the cattle grid and fork immediately right to Nesbister passing a row of semi-detached houses. Follow the road down and around past the houses at the head of the voe and continue southwards. After the next row of four modern detached houses is an access track, the site being on the right corner.
