Land at West Balkello

SITUATION
The land sits to the east of the hamlet of Kirkton of Auchterhouse at the foot of the Sidlaw Hills. The land enjoys a scenic situation with attractive views of the surrounding countryside. The area has a great deal to offer with the Balkello Community Woodland being readily accessible offering opportunities for walking, cycling and hacking. The City of Dundee can be accessed in 10 minutes by car and offers a wide range of amenities including local and national retailers as well as financial and leisure facilities.

DESCRIPTION
The land at Balkello extends to approximately 2.67 acres (1.08 hectares) principally down to grass bound to the west and south by a semi-mature woodland. The land is designated as Grade 3.1 by the James Hutton Institute and has historically been used for livestock grazing in conjunction with the neighbouring land. The land is bound to the north by a stone dyke with stock proof fencing to the south. At present the eastern boundary is not fenced but the seller would undertake to fence this prior to the completion of the sale. The woodland sections provide useful shelter for stock in the winter and shade in the summer months. The land is gently sloping in nature, sitting approximately 236m above sea level and is made up of Brown Soils that are naturally free draining. There may be an opportunity to increase the area for sale marginally and parties with an interest in acquiring an alternative parcel should submit proposals to the Selling Agents.

VIEWING
Viewing will be by appointment only through the Selling Agent.

HEALTH AND SAFETY
The property is an agricultural holding and appropriate caution should be exercised at all times during inspection.

DIRECTIONS
The property can be accessed from Tealing Road. From Auchterhouse, head east on Tealing Road for approximately 0.7miles. The property is located on your left hand side.
