A compact block of productive arable land positioned between Montrose and Brechin, extending to approximately 2.75 hectares (6.8 acres) with an additional small area of rough grazing. The soils are sandy loam (Balrownie Series) and the site is mainly James Hutton Land Capability class 3.2 with some 3.1, suitable for high-yield cereal and potato cropping. Access is direct from the public road across an unmade track and the parcel has been cropped recently under short-term arrangements.
Practical considerations are clear: there are no services connected to the field, an electricity pole line crosses the site, and the land lies within the Angus and North Fife Nitrate Vulnerable Zone. The sale is conditional on a 20-year clawback: purchasers must grant a standard security to provide the seller 20% of any uplift in value should non-agricultural planning permission be secured. The land is registered for BPS/IACS but no payment entitlements are included in the sale.
This freehold block will suit an agricultural buyer or investor seeking immediate cropping potential close to local markets in Montrose and Brechin. Sporting rights are included and minerals are sold with the land except for those reserved by statute. Note the broadband is very slow and the wider area is classified as remoter communities with limited local services; inspections should be undertaken with care as the land is actively worked.
Entry is available after 1 July 2025. The property offers straightforward arable potential and good road access, but purchasers should factor in the lack of services, the Nitrate Vulnerable Zone designation, the electricity line, and the 20-year uplift clawback when assessing long-term development or diversification plans.
