Summary - Achnaba Forest, Lochgilphead, Argyll and Bute PA31 8SE
1 bed 1 bath Land
Productive forestry holding with excellent road access and scenic loch views.
151.76 ha (c. 375 acres) productive commercial woodland
Achnaba is a substantial, well‑located commercial conifer woodland extending to 151.76 ha (c. 375 acres) with wide views across Loch Fyne and the Cowal peninsula. Largely planted in 1983 and benefitting from productive second‑rotation planting (2017 and 2022), the estate demonstrates above‑average growth and high timber yields. Proven road frontage and about 2,700 metres of internal forest roads give ready access for extraction, with the A83 providing direct regional links.
This is primarily an investment and working‑woodland opportunity for an owner/operator or investor seeking productive Sitka spruce crops and immediate timber value. Current harvesting is underway; the existing timber sale will complete under current ownership, after which the purchaser will assume the replanting obligation on felled areas. Road repairs following extraction are expected to be completed by the current owner, but prospective buyers should budget for ordinary ongoing forest road maintenance.
Practical burdens and constraints are clear and factual. There are existing servitudes and wayleaves for overhead electric lines and fibre works; fibre laying is scheduled for late summer 2025 and a proposed servitude will follow. Sporting rights are let until November 2025 (terminable with three months' notice). The holding is remote, with slow broadband, average mobile signal and limited local services, so it suits forestry, rural enterprise or recreational uses rather than residential development.
Available with an approved Forest Plan and clear title, Achnaba is a mature commercial woodland with replanting and operational responsibilities that will suit a buyer experienced in timber management or rural investment. Interested parties should inspect crop data, the subcompartment plan and deeds of servitude and allow for the listed obligations when forming offers.
