Hillhead of Morinsh is a substantial upland farm extending to approximately 129.94 hectares (321.08 acres), offered for sale as a whole. The holding includes a traditional stone-built, one-and-a-half storey farmhouse with three bedrooms, a modern portal-frame shed and a range of derelict traditional farm buildings. The land is predominantly permanent grass, registered with SGRPID for IACS, and mostly classified as Grade 4(1) and 4(2), suitable for grazing and capable of re-seeding for forage or spring barley.
The farm benefits from good vehicular access, internal farm tracks and a southerly aspect at around 315 metres above sea level, with open views towards Glenlivet and the Cairngorms. Much of the ground has been re-seeded in recent years and is currently used for livestock grazing—this holding has an established reputation for pedigree Blackface tup production. The substantial acreage and mix of modern and traditional buildings provide flexibility for continued livestock enterprise or alternative agricultural uses.
Buyers should note the material drawbacks: the farmhouse has an EPC rating of F, indicating poor energy efficiency; there is a derelict range of buildings requiring substantial repair or demolition; broadband speeds are very slow; and the property is situated in a remote, higher-elevation location with limited local services. Tenure details are not provided and should be confirmed prior to offer. Overall, this is a sizeable working farm for purchasers seeking scale, grazing capacity and rural privacy, but it will need investment to upgrade residential energy performance and to address the derelict buildings.
