A ring-fenced block of productive mowing and grazing land extending to about 28.27 acres (11.44 ha), offered as a whole. The parcel lies directly off the A709 with a bell-mouth roadside access and good visibility, making it straightforward to reach and manage. The holding comprises Grade 5(1) and 5(2) grassland with an area of woodland grazing and a small pond that supports biodiversity and sporting uses.
The land benefits from mains water and inclusion of fallen and standing timber and mineral rights insofar as owned by the seller. There is clear potential for woodland creation and natural capital schemes, subject to planning and consents, and Basic Payment Scheme entitlements are available by separate negotiation. The seller is a member-eligible neighbour of the Lochar Water Improvement Trust (ordinary drainage membership around £50/year).
Buyers should note the land lies low and adjacent to the Lochar Water. SEPA identifies the watercourse as having a 10% annual chance of flooding in parts; purchasers must satisfy themselves on flood exposure and insurance. The property is within a Nitrate Vulnerable Zone and designated a Less Favoured Area (Category D), which affects agricultural supports and stocking options.
The plot will suit an agricultural purchaser, small-scale commercial woodland developer or natural capital investor seeking ecological enhancement potential. It is sold as a whole, registered for IACS, and offered with standard third-party rights, servitudes and membership obligations that accompany rural titles.
