This 109.2-acre Lot 4 at Glenquicken is a specialist hybrid aspen woodland established in 2005, offering a fast-growing timber crop with strong biodiversity and multiple commercial uses. Hybrid aspen matures quickly, renews naturally after felling and supports diverse end uses; the wood attracts wildlife and contributes to the Estate’s long‑term forest diversification plan. The lot sits within open moorland with good estate tracks and established access.
The holding includes sporting rights (deer stalking and game) and produced significant culls across the wider estate last year; stalking is actively managed and a deer control contract runs to March 2026. There are opportunities to expand sporting income (pheasant, waterfowl) and to graze stock on firmer ground once established. Two previously surveyed areas remain as open ground and could allow creation of sizeable water features and a raised site suitable for a bothy or vernacular accommodation, subject to consents.
Practical points: tenure is freehold, flood risk is recorded as none, broadband speeds are listed as fast and mobile signal average. The lot is remote and primarily agricultural/recreational; on-site buildings are limited to a small residential cluster nearby and any uplift of on‑site containers or equipment is subject to separate lot arrangements. Prospective buyers should review the Estate’s Long Term Forest Plan and full lot data held in the seller’s online data room (access on request).
