Private Island in Scotland Hits the Market for £5.5 Million
The island spans over 1,000 acres and has vacation cottages and the ruins of a castle.
A crumbling castle on Shuna.
Source: Knight FrankFor the first time in almost 80 years, the entire island of Shuna off Scotland’s west coast is for sale. Shuna is approximately 3 miles long, a mile and a half wide, and encompasses more than 1,000 acres. It’s home to eight residential properties, a crumbling “castle” and flocks of sheep, but no real roads and only passable cell service.
That setup may not be ideal for everyone, but it’s surely someone’s fantasy escape. For those people, it’s listed for £5.5 million ($7.44 million) with Knight Frank.
