Private pier
An extraordinarily rare opportunity to acquire a private pier with associated coastal dwellings in one of the island’s most evocative and historically significant settings. Offering direct access to the water, the pier is ideal for private moorings, fishing, or simply enjoying the tranquillity of life on the shoreline. Subject to the appropriate local authority consents, the existing cottages offer remarkable potential to be reimagined as a single, luxury family residence. Equally, the properties present excellent scope for use as high-quality holiday accommodation, providing the opportunity to generate a strong future income stream, if desired. The setting is nothing short of exceptional. The village faces east across the Firth of Clyde toward the mainland, capturing beautiful morning light and ever-changing seascapes. To the north, a sheltered sandy bay known locally as the “Wee Bay” sweeps gently along the coastline, while to the south the West Island Way begins, tracing a dramatic rocky shore past the lighthouse that marks the southern tip of the island. Rich in history, the pier welcomed Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II in 1957, when she landed from the Royal Yacht Britannia during her visit to the island. In earlier years, one of the cottages operated as a tearoom, reflecting the area’s long-standing appeal as a destination of charm and character. Today, the village benefits from a tearoom and Post Office, with the popular Kingarth Hotel located a short distance away. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to secure a truly distinctive coastal estate, combining privacy, heritage, lifestyle, and future income potential in a setting of outstanding natural beauty.
