I know its a lot to ask for but can anyone help me with the general procedure I need to follow. Finding a builder I think may be difficult as the island doesn't have roads so the logistics are not straight forward regarding materials.

Any help would be appreciated.
I recommend seeing a lawyer first just to see what the situation is. I know in some areas. planning permission expires fairly quickly if you don't build, that plus your desire to build something else than already approved probably complicates matters.

After that get an architect to have a look and give you an opinion on what to build.
