You can own a private island off the coast of Scotland for $190,000 — nearly half the median price of a home in the US
A remote escape just hit the Scottish real estate market: a 25-acre private island, currently on sale for $190,000.
In a Thursday press release, the Galbraith Group described the land as a"rare opportunity for those wishing to own their very own island." "There's still a very romantic sentiment attached to owning your very own Scottish private island, where you can escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and enjoy some peace and tranquility in the most beautiful scenery around," Aaron Edgar, a salesperson for Galbraith, said in a statement.
While the owner's identity remains private, Galbraith told Insider the island has been in the same family for several generations.
