An opportunity to purchase rarely available prime arable land with farm buildings on the renowned Black Isle

The Property The land comprises a block of prime arable extending in total to approximately 47.83 acres (19.83 ha) located at the northeast of the Black Isle. The land has a pronounced southerly aspect and lies between 40 metres and 70 metres above sea level. The majority of the land is graded as 3.1 and 3.2 by the James Hutton Institute. The arable land comprises free draining soil and has been worked traditionally in an arable rotation.

Located centrally within the property are two agricultural buildings with concrete covered apron to the front:

General Purpose Shed - approximately 24m x 14m Steel portal frame, concrete floor, corrugated roof, part concrete block lower walls. Diagonal feed barriers to front.

Dutch Barn – approximately 14m x 7m Steel portal frame, corrugated roof and concrete floor.

Location The land is located on the northern coast of the Black Isle, just south of the B9163 Culbokie to Cromarty road. The Black Isle is a peninsula bounded to the north by the Cromarty Firth and the Moray and Beauly Firths to the south and area is renowned for its fair climate and rich farmland. This arable land, in conjunction with a backdrop of rugged hills, provides spectacular scenery with wonderful views. For the keen golfer there are famous courses locally at Rosemarkie and Fortrose, two Nairn championship golf courses as well as facilities at Royal Dornoch, Spey Valley and the Castle Stuart Golf Links. There is salmon fishing on the Rivers Nairn, Findhorn and Spey and shooting is readily available on local estates. The beautiful Spey Valley with its Whisky trail and the ski slopes at the Cairngorms and The Lecht are all within easy driving distance. Inverness, the capital city of the Highlands, lies approximately 20 miles to the southwest. Inverness, a vibrant city, has a full range of retail, educational, leisure and commerce facilities together with a mainline railway station and an airport with flights to a wide range of UK destinations (including London Heathrow) and a limited number of European destinations (including Amsterdam).

This property has 47.83 acres of land.

Directions
