Summary - POMATHORN FARM, PENICUIK EH26 8PJ
1 bed 1 bath Land
Substantial pasture, woodland and renewable income within easy reach of Edinburgh.
Approximately 358.94 acres (145.26 ha) across three lots
An unusually large agricultural holding of about 358.94 acres (145.26 ha) divided into three lots around Pomathorn Farm, close to Penicuik and within commuting distance of Edinburgh. The land is predominantly permanent pasture with arable grassland, rough grazing and around 73 acres of mature woodland, making it well suited to livestock enterprises, diversification and environmental schemes. Infrastructure and internal tracks are in place and the holding is described as well managed and in good heart.
Lot composition gives flexibility: Lot 1 (c.106 acres) offers arable grassland and easy road access for sheep and forage operations; Lot 2 (c.177 acres) combines productive grass, rough grazing and woodland for shelter and biodiversity; Lot 3 (c.75.5 acres) adjoins the main holding and includes a 10 kW wind turbine (leased until 2045) that may be available separately. The farmhouse, yard and outbuildings are offered separately by negotiation with a further c.9.6 acres if required.
Practical positives include fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and no reported flood risk. The land sits between 200–255m with reliable rainfall supporting pasture growth and a mix of James Hutton Institute land classes (predominantly Class 4.2) suited mainly to grazing and forage production rather than intensive cropping.
Buyers should note material constraints: agricultural capability is mixed (areas of limited grade), the turbine is under a long lease, the house and buildings are not automatically included, and tenure details are currently unspecified. The holding sits close to Penicuik (¼ mile) yet the wider area has been recorded with high deprivation metrics, which may affect certain grant or development eligibility. Overall, the holding suits agricultural purchasers, investors in rural land, or those seeking a large estate for diversification or environmental management.
