Approximately 104 acres of predominantly Class 2 arable land
Approximately 104 acres of high-quality arable land on the northern outskirts of Brechin, offered freehold with vacant possession after the 2025 harvest. The holding is predominantly Class 2 with a small area of Class 3(1), on freely draining humus-iron podzols suitable for a broad range of agricultural uses. The land is gently sloping, divided into two fields by a minor public road, and benefits from direct access off the highway.
The site has clear potential beyond farming: proximity to the A90 (less than a mile) and Brechin’s services make this an attractive long-term development prospect. There is currently no planning consent for non-agricultural uses, however the sale includes a binding obligation that the purchaser must pay 50% of any uplift in value arising from obtaining non-agricultural planning consent within 20 years of completion. That condition materially affects future value capture and should be factored into redevelopment appraisals.
Practical considerations are straightforward: good mobile signal and no flood risk, but broadband speeds are slow and the immediate area is classified as remoter agricultural communities with higher levels of deprivation. The land has been farmed locally for many years and will be available post-harvest 2025. Buyers should carry out their own due diligence on access, soils, and planning prospects before offer.
