Private Island For Sale in Scotland, and It’s an Off-Grid Sanctuary



If you’ve ever dreamed of living somewhere away from it all, the private island of Torsa in Scotland might be the place for you. Situated on 270 acres in Scotland’s Inner Hebrides, the island is up for sale for the first time in 85 years. As well as 2½ miles of stunning coastline, the island boasts unbelievable views over the sheltered bays, an abundance of wildlife, and spots for sailing, fishing, and water sports. It’s easy to see why you would never want to leave. The island also comes with a slate-roofed farmhouse, a 3-bedroom period property that’s currently a successful vacation rental, but which is turnkey ready. The home’s conservatory is the ideal place to watch the variety of wildlife that visits the island, including sea eagles, otters, and deer. If you’re looking for a project, the farmhouse is surrounded by traditional stone outbuildings ripe for redevelopment. The nearest town is Oban, which is 18 miles to the northeast. The property is approximately 100 miles from Glasgow, which offers all the cultural and professional services you would need. So, if you're looking for that stunning hideaway with breathtaking views and happen to have €1.5 million ($1.8 million) to spare, this could be your new home.
