The lighthouse and associated keeper’s buildings on Copinsay are on the market for offers over £80,000.
Allan Properties, which is marketing the site for sale, says it offers prospective buyers “a blank canvas to create a space they can truly call their home”.

“This property within this uninhabited island is now available for those seeking an extraordinary retreat.
“Requiring renovation works, this property presents the perfect opportunity for someone seeking a solitary lifestyle with a blank canvas to create a space they can truly call their home.”
