The Walled Garden Building & Land For Sale.
Walled Garden at Noss Head Lighthouse Station (plot number 2): This is the next offering for sale. Especially if the million pound lighthouse buildings featured further down this page are a little too eye-watering on your bank balance.
View From The Lighthouse Tower.
Of The Walled Garden Building & Land.
Currently the Walled Garden Building does not have planning permission. However, almost a mirror site at this lighthouse station (but much smaller than the Garden Building & Walled Garden) recently received FULL planning permission (precedent: click here and here).
So what is this £79,000 lighthouse adventure?
We start at the entrance. You can see what will become your building and your part of this lighthouse station straight ahead. Visual line-of-sight precisely above the main entrance gate which you share with three other building owners on this site…

Walled Garden Building & Land For Sale.
Top Right of Photo.
The whole of Noss Head Lighthouse Station was bought by the owners of this lighthouse website on 23rd May 2017. All the classic white/ochre/green painted lighthouse buildings, except for the Engine House and the Walled Garden Building have been renovated and are now very comfortable lighthouse station homes.
As of 23rd May 2021 we are only selling one more of our buildings: The Walled Garden property at our Noss Head Lighthouse Station. We will be retaining the buildings that we require for the operation of this website.
Noss Head Lighthouse Station.
Last Building For Sale.
At & Including The Walled Garden.
Consequently, some fortunate reader is likely to be embarking upon a lighthouse adventure on a spectacularly beautiful location for a very affordable entry level of £79,000 to buy the Walled Garden Building and a significant amount of land. Once the Walled Garden Building has been sold and renovated, that is the last of our work here.
The local dignitaries have already been up to commemorate the restoration of the main buildings under our control and simultaneous restoration of the lighthouse tower (still owned by the Northern Lighthouse Board)…
Lighthouse Tower Restoration Manager David McNish
With David Stewart MSP & Greg Doctor (Source: Here).
It is unusual for a Northern Lighthouse Board owned tower and privately owned former keepers’ houses to be renovated at the same time. Often there is a dissonance in the condition of the tower or the houses, with one part looking in very good condition and the other appearing tired. With Noss Head almost all of the buildings are now ship shape and Bristol fashion. This is one of the reasons the Walled Garden building is being sold now: so that it too can be brought up to the high standard of condition that the rest of this lighthouse station is presented in.
To assist the new owner of the Walled Garden building and land (if needed) we are happy to offer our Keeper’s Cabin property to rent. This has been fully renovated. That will be at a rental of £99 per week (check back here soon as we shall be uploading photographs of the finished accommodation).
What is for sale?
The area for sale at £79,000 is delineated on the plan at the top of this segment outlined in red and marked “2”, being the Walled Garden Building and land. Here is the main building in that lot number “2”…
The Walled Garden Building
Noss Head Lighthouse Station
Included with the building is the very private Walled Garden. A new entrance door is needed on this enigmatic Narnia style doorway to what may well be your new unique home and sanctuary…
The Walled Garden: Private Entrance.
A Large Area of Private Lighthouse Station Land.
There is ample space at the back of the current Walled Garden Building to add a modest extension. Ideally for one or two bedrooms. The land to the back of this building faces southwards and gently slopes downwards so that there is a very nice view over the back wall across this large garden area across towards the sea.
Whilst looking in the other direction, northwards, there is the main lighthouse tower and keepers’ cottages…
View North From The Walled Garden Building
Noss Head Lighthouse Station
On occasion, it is possible to visit with our neighbours at the Northern Lighthouse Board and go to the top of the actual tower. Here is a photograph from the tower showing the Walled Garden Building and land…
Local Lighthouse Project Manager Mr Steve Williams
Steve has been crucial in renovating buildings within this iconic lighthouse station. It is an important matter to have someone able to complete a project such as the Walled Garden Building if needed, depending upon the new owner’s circumstances. Whether they be a hands-on project person or are looking for a “turn-key” end result ready to move into.
Having owned several lighthouse stations, the subscribers of this website can whole heartedly recommend Steve Williams as he already proven his capabilities with our recent Keeper’s Cabin renovation at this site.
The whole lighthouse station is in a particularly dramatic setting. For perspective, here is a photograph that shows the neighbouring Sinclair Castle and Ackergill Tower…
Within the grounds at Noss Head Lighthouse Station there is ample land to walk around. A relief in these Covid times to just be a bit normal again. Even before the Coronavirus, it was nice to stay here, where there are some genuinely serene parts to literally get away from the madding crowd…
Lochmor at Noss Head Lighthouse Station
The building you may be buying might not look that inspiring. But neither did any of the properties at Noss Head Lighthouse Station in 2017. Here is an example of what can be achieved utilising/contracting the services of the professional team who renovated the tower. Once they had finished their work for the Northern Lighthouse Board (NLB), the project director for the NLB arranged for us to open an account at their specialist lighthouse paint manufacturer. This is crucial as the NLB lighthouse towers have paint systems applied that withstand hot sunshine and wet storms in equal measure, yet last 7 to 10 years before repaint is needed.

(A lot of preparation work is needed)
Please Note: These are BEFORE and AFTER photos of our ADJACENT buildings and NOT the Walled Garden property. We are keen to show our readers (and new neighbour) what can be achieved when you have the professional Northern Lighthouse Board helping you ensure the WHOLE lighthouse station is restored at the one time and to a high standard throughout…

Across the garden and land (which is included in the £79,000) you will own this diminutive building…
The Walled Garden Building
Noss Head Lighthouse Station
It is being sold “as is” and our recommendation is the new owner applies for planning permission to add a small extension on the back and change the use into a one or two bedroom home.
There is precedent for this at another location ~ Corsewall Lighthouse Station for newbuild and conversion of spare buildings at lighthouse stations. Indeed there is precedent much closer to home with a similar building on a much smaller plot of land in our Noss Head Lighthouse Station known as the Engine Room having been recently been GRANTED full planning permission: Click here to review and study the public domain Planning Permission on a similar building close by.
Finally for this segment, for the person or persons who do buy the Walled Garden Building and land from the owners of this website, we can arrange for you to have the rental of our fully renovated Keeper’s Cabin adjacent to the Walled Garden. When utilised as a holiday rental, Keeper’s Cabin can secure over £600 per week. But for the duration of your Walled Garden project, we can look at a much more modest level of £99 per week…
Keeper’s Cabin Is The Left Part of This Building
Details of the £99 per week rental will be uploaded here shortly. Please check back soon.
This facility of a nice home onsite at £99 per week is in addition to the £79,000 price for the Walled Garden Building and land…

Next lighthouse property for sale: £995,000…
St Annes Head Lighthouse For Sale
2]. St Annes Head Lighthouse: At £995,000. Right in the middle of the Coronavirus pandemic, our main website Unique Property Bulletin (click here) has had a FOURFOLD increase in enquiries from buyers seeking remote homes far away from high-density places where the Coronavirus is concentrated. Property purchasers are looking to move now in numbers we did not expect to see during Covid19.
St Ann’s Head Lighthouse: Comfortable Inside.
From talking with our readers, most are seeking to leave lockdown-towns and coviddy-cities due to oppressive and perceived/real risk laden conditions.
Many are already remote working, so why not telecommute via Zoom/Skype/FaceTime from a wonderful and properly remote new home with several acres of your own and the feeling that you do still have freedom. A new home that has some normality about it because you are free to walk in fields and grounds that have none of this nightmare…

With rural lighthouse buildings and land starting from £39,000 up to £1,750,000 there is plenty of splendidly remote places to live. Yet with amenities reasonably close. There is a style of lighthouse life that you can live where you do not feel like a sardine in a can of covid-oil.
St Annes Head Lighthouse Station,
Pembrokeshire, SA62 6RS
We are sure that Covid will be beaten. 101 years ago the world was coming out of the last pandemic and Heaven knows, after that pandemic they had a helluva party. It was called the Roaring Twenties…
The 1920s After The Pandemic of 1918.
101 years ago, once the virus had passed
people lived their lives happily again.
What we do know from our Unique Property Bulletin website is that property is selling a lot faster than any of us might have imagined.
Yet, here in 2021 we are still in the midst of this horrendous Coronavirus pandemic. This feels counter-intuitive. Maybe folk have stopped going down the pub and saved more so they can now buy a new home.
Thre is, thankfully, hope on the horizon. The Covid vaccine roll-out seems to be “efficacious” as the magnificanet Dr Athony Fauci says.
Our Favourite Skunk At A Picnic: Right of Photo (Here)
Dr Fauci tells it as it Is.
During this year, 2021, we await the results of the vaccine effectiveness keenly. Plus most of humanity now have their “O” Grade or eqivalent high school certificate in epidemiology and know that “mutants” are not things that chase you during halloween and UFO invasions. In fact mutants and variants are the reason we will be getting an annual injection/jag as Covid becomes endemic.

Pembrokeshire, SA62 6RS
What does the Covid19 pandemic an a rush for remote property have to do with St Ann’s Head Lighthouse in Haverfordwest? We suggest if you are looking to live in a lighthouse, please…
BE QUICK OR BE LAST
This place hung around undsold for years and years and was taken off of the market for a while. It is now back up for sale. We have a funny feeling, given the fourfold increase in buyer enquiries over at our Unique Property Bulletin website that the lighthouse in Haverfordwest, will sell and sell well.
If it does, we will take some solace that there is light at the end of this ruddy awful horrendous global pandemic.

Sorry Now SOLD
3]. SIr Peter Scott’s Lighthouse: We’ve been advised that East Bank Lighthouse, known as Sir Peter Scott’s Lighthouse at has now sold. It is also pretty rare in the location being in East Anglia. The owner is a lovely gentleman and we wish him the very best.
There WILL be at least ONE lighthouse tower for sale in Wales that will be added to this website during January 2021.
NEXT ONE IS “UNDER OFFER”
But worth keeping an eye on as we have watched folk first hand lose thousands of pounds wasted in conveyancing fees as sale after sale collapsed. Corsewall Lighthouse Station is beautiful looking and we wish the owners good luck in selling. But many folk have ended up losing large amounts of money trying to buy this place…
4]. The next in our summary State of The Market summary list is the Corsewall Lighthouse compound at £450,000. But that has been for sale for 10 years and buyer after buyer has lost money in legal fees trying to purchase that complex and challenging site. The most recent evidence we saw was over £4,000 in buyer legal fees were wasted in the past few months because of difficulties by the latest in a series of buyers. The most recent was a cash-buyer and still no deal! No matter how we tried to help with FREE listings, that lighthouse station seems well and truly “stuck”.
***********
SORRY, THIS NEXT ONE IS UNDER OFFER AT THE MOMENT…
4]. The West Usk Lighthouse: From our experience and reader feedback, that is at the very top end of what lighthouse buyers are comfortable paying. A guide of £1,750,000 is a lot of money. Most of our readers prefer lighthouse buildings at the £75,000 to £125,000 guide price figure. Although we do have a respectable number of high-net-worth buyers looking at the £500,000 to £1,000,000+ price bracket. Even so, the West Usk Lighthouse buyers we sent across advised their view was a ceiling of £1,400,000.

***********
SORRY, THIS LIGHTHOUSE TOWER SOLD VERY QUICKLY…
5]. The penultimate Burnham High Lighthouse Tower was one of the rarest buildings we list. At £550,000 it was priced at the top end, but because of rarity, it had thousands of folk clicking onto the dedicated webpage we hosted. We were delighted when the owner phoned our UK telephone number for advice (here). It was a sheer pleasure to help him sell the tower over the following few weeks.

Also Known As East Bank Lighthouse
East Bank Lighthouse: Known As Sir Peter Scott’s Lighthouse
It is one of the delights running this eccentric Lighthouses For Sale or Rent website that sometimes the telephone will ring, and the owner of magnificent home is calling in with details of a very special place to sell. This happened today: here is that offering for you to consider…
East Bank Lighthouse, Sutton Bridge, Spalding, PE12 9QJ
Lighthouse towers for sale are very rare. In 25 years of editing Unique Property Bulletin and sister website Lighthouses For Sale, I have only seen three. As if the tower isn’t rare enough, this one comes with an incredible pedigree. It’s former owner, Sir Peter Scott was the son of famous Antarctic explorer, Commander Robert Falcon Scott. This resonates with our publication as on some days in midwinter, when nobody else on the RRS Discovery, I will quietly take the website laptop and spend an afternoon a few miles along the road from my home and go aboard Captain Robert Falcon Scott’s ship…
RRS Discovery. Forever Linked With Captain Scott
Please note, this ship is NOT for sale. Just included as part of lighthouse for sale narrative.
I mention the depths of winter for two reasons. Firstly, it is apposite to spend time aboard the RRS Discovery on a brisk, beautiful Baltic cold winter’s day given her voyages to the Antarctic. Secondly, in December or January you can enjoy this whole ship as a quiet sanctuary. Sometimes there isn’t another living soul aboard.
On those extra special treat days, some of the editions of this website were researched and composed here…
RRS Discovery At Dundee. Some Editions of This Website Written In This Room
This is an awesome space in an amazing place.
To consider where the occupants of this room have travelled and what they would have experienced inspires and fires the imagination from the freezing echos of this special ship’s past…
RRS Discovery At The Antarctic. Locked In The Ice For 2 Years: 1902-1904. Brrrr???
But I digress. This segment is about Commander Scott’s son, and his home at a very special lighthouse tower, located in East Anglia…
Is This Lighthouse In An Area Where You Would Like To Live?

The majority of lighthouse buildings are in Ireland and Scotland where much of the coastline can be exceedingly hazardous to shipping.
It is a rare treat that we can offer up such a beautiful lighthouse to folk who have a need to be near to the south east of the UK.
East Bank Lighthouse & Sir Peter With Friends
Genealogy asides, Sir Peter was a notable person in his own right. Described by the World Wildlife Fund For Nature as one of their founders. To have a very brief appreciation of his life’s work: click here.
To get a feel of the inspiration that Sir Peter drew from his time living at East Bank Lighthouse, here are a few photographs of the internal accommodation – both the light keeper’s cottage, and the actual lighthouse tower…
Returning back to the ground floor accommodation, as an example, we have the living room…

Estate Agent Narrative: East Bank Lighthouse, or, more familiarly known as Sir Peter Scott´s Lighthouse, stands on the eastern bank at the mouth of the River Nene to the south of The Wash, a marine area which is one of the country´s last great wildernesses.
Offering a Reception Room Overlooking the Estuary, Dining Room, Kitchen, Plus Basement.
Three Bedrooms, Bathroom and Shower Room Plus Attached Artist Studio Accommodation.

Quite A Contrast From Sir Peter’s Tome At East Bank Lighthouse
Estate Agent Narrative Continued: The Wash National Nature Reserve is the biggest reserve in England, covering nearly 9,000 hectares, and is dedicated to the memory of Sir Peter Scott, a great conservationist and son of ´Scott of the Antarctic´ who lived at East Bank Lighthouse, a Grade II* Listed Building from 1933 to the start of World War 2.”
Snowgoose Wildlife Trust Background: Click Here
There is a huge amount of history to this truly unique home. The place also had planning permission granted for a detached visitor centre. This opens up possibilities for proper pharologists and also conservation minded wildlife devotees to enjoy an amazing new life here at this sublime part of the country.

Guide: £325,000 – Now Sold
Little Ross Island Lighthouse Compound
Little Ross Island and it’s various lighthouse (and farm/barn) buildings, may be “under offer”, but it is still worthwhile keeping an eye on the current selling progress – in case the place comes back up for sale. Over the past three decades, we have seen, first hand the fact that several lighthouse buildings have come back after the first sale effort falls through. Our very own HQ for this website at Noss Head Lighthouse Station was one such second-time-around sale/purchase.

WHO RUNS THIS WEBSITE AND WHY?
Several readers have asked us this two-part question.
Some of us our a bit reclusive, but here goes…
For our readers who have the dedicated lighthouse property sleuthing ability within their DNA. If you are determined to find one of these lighthouse buildings to live in for yourself, then our special article is a reasonable starting point.
What has Robert Carlyle got to do with finding and buying lighthouse buildings/?
Read on for the back-story…
Highland Policeman Hamish Macbeth Portrayed By Actor Robert Carlyle
Photo Attribution: BBC
The light hearted rural police drama featured adventures of the eponymous, eccentric character in uniform, inhabited brilliantly by Robert Carlyle. The BBC series was must-watch television on a Sunday night in the 1990’s.
But here’s the thing. In real life there are actual Hamish Macbeths. You are reading the words of one right here and now. Just exactly as the writer of this segment is tapping them out on the old keyboard for you. Curiously, it is an obscure fact that thanks to a Teuchter version of the Old Bill – and a lot of training at police college, this website has been created. If it were not for a real life Hamish Macbeth, then Lighthouses For Sale or Rent would not be here.

This website has a forensic team of qualified property detectives (retired plods and Sherlock Holmes) helping to get you into lighthouse building ownership mischief. But for some reason, last year, 2020 was very dry in the world of lighthouses coming onto the sale lists. It is early in 2021 now, but already this year is looking a lot more interesting. Please check back regularly for new additions on this website.

TO LIST YOUR LIGHTHOUSE BUILDNG FOR SALE
This is a not-for-profit website provided free to readers. It is kept online by a group of friends who own lighthouse buildings and are happy to help others minded to live in these more remote spots. Covid19 is making remote working more popular and lighthouse are proving a reassuringly safe place to live whilst earning a living telecommuting. It is 36 years since the owner of this website (click here) acquired his first lighthouse. In that time he has been very very lucky: owning three lighthouse stations and acquiring the long leasehold of a fourth. This is mentioned as bona fides and credentials in naming Neist Point as THE one to watch for 2021. Russ reckons if you really love lighthouses, you should start saving up for this iconic place if, or rather when it comes up for sale…

Next Sale? ~ The Trick To Owning A Lighthouse Station?
Be prepared: get your finances sorted out and your lighthouses for sale radar switched on…
A good way is to check this lighthouses for sale website regularly.
This website has been privileged to help many fellow lighthouse owners sell millions of pounds worth of these iconic buildings since we went online in 2012 (and millions before that in our paper print publication established in 1992). But for some reason, there has been a shortage of lighthouse buildings for sale during 2020. With some hope and a fair wind, 2021 does seem to be getting better as far as lighthouses coming onto the sale list is concerned. We anticipate adding fresh properties for sale onto this site in the next few weeks..
In fact, demand for “remote” places to live and work (via telecommuting) has rocketed since Covid struck. The vast majority of former lighthouse buildings we feature for sale are broadband connected which is ideal for folk wishing to live in remoter places and telecommute to work via Skype, Zoom, FaceTime etc….
From Those Wesbite Office At Noss Head Lighthouse Station
These places are as awesome to live in, as they are amazing to look at. Plus…
Lighthouse homes enable an excellent quality of life.
