Richard Stein and Sally Lovell, a couple from London, are selling Harbour Island, an island off the coast of Argyll, Scotland, for £1.25 million. The property was bought by the couple as a retirement project, and they have lived on the island for about nine years. During that period, they relied on boat travel to reach services and community facilities on the mainland, including shops and a pub. The reports say the couple is putting the island on the market after years of living there, citing their experience of island life rather than any other stated reason for the sale. The listing is described as a change in plans for the retirement project the couple began when they acquired the island. Overall, the available coverage focuses on the timeline of their ownership and their day-to-day logistics, particularly the necessity of travelling by boat for supplies and leisure, rather than on broader political or economic issues. The sale price and location are the central details highlighted across the sources.
