Summary - Dunmore Woods, Airth, Stirlingshire FK2 8LP
1 bed 1 bath Land
Massive rural plot with ponds and development potential for experienced investors.
72.41 hectares freehold woodland with mixed productive and native species
Dunmore Wood is a substantial freehold woodland of 72.41 hectares in Airth, offering a mix of productive Sitka spruce plantations and diverse, mature broadleaves. The site contains three productive ponds, specimen trees (Scots pine, Douglas fir, yew, monkey puzzle) and a hermit’s cave/ice house, providing ecological interest and recreation potential. An impressive record of fast-growing crops indicates ongoing commercial forestry value, while parts of the site have recently regenerated naturally and could be restocked subject to Scottish Forestry discussions.
The land has potential for chalet or leisure development but no planning permission is confirmed. An incoming purchaser should assume planning would require formal applications, local authority engagement and consideration of the site’s rural classification and local deprivation context. Some areas were felled in 2017 and will need active management or restocking to maximise timber value; the estate also lies within a Designed Landscape which may influence future works.
Practical advantages include freehold tenure, fast broadband, no flood risk and unfettered unaccompanied viewing. Drawbacks include the need for forestry management, potential planning constraints, average mobile signal and the site’s rural location that could affect visitor numbers for leisure uses. This land suits forestry interests, conservation purchasers or an investor prepared to lead a leisure development project with the necessary permissions and infrastructure work.
