Chilcarroch & Flow of Elrig is a large-scale commercial forestry estate offering immediate and long-term income potential. Flow of Elrig contains mature, harvest-ready stands providing near-term timber revenues, while Chilcarroch’s improved Sitka spruce (Yield Class 24+) and recent plantings position the holding for strong future yields.
The property includes 17,630 Woodland Carbon Code Pending Issuance Units (PIUs), with 4,407 allocated to the buffer, and an expected circa £30,000 annual grant payment due in 2026. Combined timber value, carbon credits and the mix of crop ages create diversified revenue streams for investors or estate managers.
Buildings on the holding — a bungalow, farm buildings, a slated shed, two derelict cottages and a silage pit — provide residential use and development potential but will require investment and repair. The estate also includes Chilcarroch Loch and sporting opportunities, adding amenity and biodiversity value.
The holding is in a remote agricultural area; mobile signal is average and broadband is fast, but the location suits buyers prepared for rural management. Viewings may be undertaken at any time unaccompanied, and the sale is freehold.
