An accessible, ring‑fenced block of productive arable land extending to 51.30 hectares (126.76 acres), offered as a whole or in five lots. The Ashgrove Association soils are classified as Grade 3.1/3.2, capable of good cereal and grass yields, making the holding immediately workable for cropping or livestock. Excellent road links place Edinburgh city centre about 11 miles away and Edinburgh Airport just over a mile, adding practical value for contracting, staff and diversifying enterprises.
The sale includes sporting and mineral rights and good internal access to every field from public road or private track. Lots 1 and 2 are currently under offer; Lots 1–3 and Lots 4–5 are subject to separate overage agreements (50% of uplift) that run until 31 Oct 2045 and 22 Mar 2049 respectively — a material consideration for development prospects. Basic Payment Scheme entitlements are not included in the price and retained by the vendors; entitlements may be purchased separately by negotiation.
There is clear potential for equestrian, tourism or other diversified rural uses, but these would require securing planning permission. No planning applications presently affect the land and there are no environmental designations within the boundary. Practical attributes include excellent mobile signal and straightforward viewing (by appointment), while broadband speeds are very slow — relevant for on-site office or homeworking requirements.
This opportunity suits an expanding farm business, consolidation purchase or investor seeking an accessible agricultural asset with operational flexibility. Budget for usual agricultural in‑going costs, note the overage provisions if development is contemplated, and verify BPS entitlement arrangements prior to offer.
