Summary - Dura Forest, Allanton, North Lanarkshire, ML2 ML2 9PJ
1 bed 1 bath Land
Large-scale woodland with indexed wind-farm income and forestry potential.
Freehold mixed-rotation commercial forest, about 424 hectares (1,049 acres)
Dura Forest is a large, mixed-rotation commercial woodland extending to about 424 hectares (1,049 acres) with an operational wind farm producing a base rent and additional variable income. Approximately 220 hectares are currently stocked and productive, with broadleaf pockets and expanding regeneration that support biodiversity and habitat value. The freehold includes a heritable interest in ten turbines (23MW total) and an anemometer mast, producing indexed base rent and recent annual income between £95,000–£110,000.
The wind farm income is secure under two leases running to November 2044 and January 2046; base rent is currently £72,000 pa and is index linked, with variable rent and habitat payments supplementing returns. Market expectations are for lease extension and eventual repowering, but any repowering or change will require consent and is not guaranteed. Recreational leasing provides an additional income stream.
This holding suits investors or commercial woodland managers seeking scale, diversified income and long-term land management opportunities. There is clear forestry potential in the 220ha of productive timber plus areas suitable for further habitat improvement or broadleaf conversion. Access is off Dura Road from the A71 and the site sits on relatively flat lowland ground with fast broadband and average mobile signal.
Notable considerations are the significant area allocated to wind farm infrastructure (reducing the proportion of productive timber), the finite current lease terms, and ongoing management requirements for forestry and habitat. Prospective buyers should allow for operational oversight, forestry planning, and the planning and consenting process if seeking repowering or other development.
