Scottish island in middle of beautiful loch goes on sale for less than Edinburgh garage

If you're looking for a new holiday home we could've found quite the option for you - your very own Scottish island which costs less than an Edinburgh garage.

Yes really - you could own your very own island in the middle of one of Scotland's most beautiful sea lochs after it was put on the market for less than this West End double garage.

Nestled in the middle of the tranquil Loch Moidart on the west coast of Scotland, Deer Island offers 11 acres of private land to which you can escape the hustle and bustle of normal life.

The stunning and remote Scottish island is being put up for auction at the end of this month with a starting price of just £80,000.

The piece of land comes in at the same price as as this Fountainbridge double parking space.

You may need to roll up your sleeves however as Deer Island no houses or amenities and is covered in native woodland.

The neighbouring island of Eilean Shona owned by the family of British Business magnate Richard Branson - so you can imagine just how desirable these locations are, with the sale of the island expected to excite buyers from all over the world.

Lying close to Castle Tioram, the ancient fortress of the Clanranald, Future Auctions, which is dealing with the Deer Island sale, said: “The uninhabited island is located within an extremely popular sea loch certain to appeal to investors from all over the world.”

Originally owned by the Clanranald, the auction house have not listed the current seller.
