Within the iconic Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park and nestled between hills in a picturesque glen, this magnificent building plot extends to approximately 0.8 acres and has been granted planning in principle for the erection of a single detached residence.

Whilst there are no services directly connected to the site, the adjacent property is connected with mains electricity and water.
