Alvah Church, Alvah, Banff, Aberdeenshire, AB45 3US

The B Listed church building dates back to 1792 when it was rebuilt on an existing site re-using the bellcote of 1643. The church has now been granted planning consent to convert to a five-bedroom home.

The current owners have stripped back the property and the previous owner replaced the entire roof (under separate planning permission) making the church ready for the next steps in development.

There is provision for roadside parking and a parcel of ground which can be a garden. There is also the option to purchase unused church land from the council.

The church enjoys far reaching open views from its elevated position.

Planning
Planning Permission was granted by Aberdeenshire Council in 2016 under Application No. APP/2016/0988 for a four/five-bedroom property over three floors extending to approximately 275 sq.m. (2,994 sq.ft.). As there has been a meaningful start, this planning is now locked in.

Services
Mains services are understood to be available in the vicinity of the site, but prospective buyers should make their own independent enquiries as to the suitability of services for their particular requirements.
