Properties being brought to market by DM Hall’s rural specialists which can fulfil a wide variety of ambitions
Arran farm properties are a rare opportunity to acquire significant land holdings with potential for income generating assets.
It is not often that properties which could fulfil the dreams of so many different people become available, especially on a stunning Scottish island to which visitors flock for its unrivalled beauty and dramatic vistas.
That is the countryside gem which is being brought to market by the rural services division of DM Hall Chartered Surveyors in a spectacular position on the outskirts of Brodick on the attractive and perennially popular Isle of Arran.
Burnbank Farm and West Glensherraig Farm is a rare offering, and is only on offer because the family who have grazed animals and exercised stewardship of the rolling hills and glens for generations are now retiring from the farming sector.
This creates a unique opportunity. Some 400,000 people come off the ferry to visit the island each year, swelling the local population 100-fold.
Burnbank Farm & West Glensherraig Farm are a viable agricultural enterprise, a traditional working farm with additional income from a portfolio of established long-term and previously short-term let properties.
Jennifer Campbell, of DM Hall, who is leading the marketing initiative along with joint agents Watermans, said: “This is a truly a dream location – tranquil rolling countryside, but just five minutes’ drive from the bustling Brodick Ferry Terminal.
“Everything about it is special. There are two farms, wonderful grazing land, and seven established properties in excellent condition.
“There is a reason people are queuing up to find property on Arran. It is a wonderful place to live, work or start a business and Burnbank Farm and West Glensherraig Farm provide the opportunity to realise a myriad of opportunities.”
The property is being offered in three lots or as a whole:
Lot 1 is Burnbank Farm, a high amenity property comprising good grazing land in a scenic and tranquil position with a principal residence, presented in immaculate order, two two-bedroom holiday let cottages, a one-bedroom house, kennels, shed and garden ground, in all approximately 6.79 Ha (16.78 acres).
Lot 2 is West Glensherraig Farm, comprising a three-bedroom farmhouse, a two-bedroom cottage, sheds, steading and land extending in all to approximately 64 Ha (158 acres).
Lot 3 is land to the south of the B880, the country road known as the String, which bisects the island. It is approximately 532.95 Ha (1316.95 acres) and houses a bothy which sleeps two.
The farm market in Scotland is still active and land is still very much in demand, and interest in Burnbank Farm and West Glensherraig Farm is expected to be intense.
Viewing is by appointment and offers should be made to Jennifer Campbell at DM Hall in good time.
