GENERAL
Crumstane is situated about half a mile to the south of the former market town of Duns, about 45 miles south east of Edinburgh in the heart of the Scottish Borders. The farm lies on the southern perimeter of the settlement of Duns in an accessible position overlooking the rolling countryside beyond. The historic county of Berwickshire is a renowned farming area known for its mix of fertile arable land and excellent stock rearing ground.
Duns is a bustling former market town and provides an excellent range of local amenities including a wide variety of independent shops, supermarkets, professional services and High Street bank. The town boasts a primary school and the highly regarded Berwickshire High School which forms the heart of the local community.
The larger centres of Kelso and Berwick provide a wider range of amenities with prominent national hunt racing and an ice rink at Kelso with popular sports and arts centres found at Berwick.
The Scottish Borders is well known for its recreational, amenity and sporting opportunities and the farm enjoys a central position being a short distance from the Lammermuir Hills and the spectacular scenery found along the east coast of the county.
The agricultural nature of the area ensures it is well provided for by agricultural contractors, merchants and machinery dealerships, and the modern livestock markets in Stirling and St Boswells provide first class outlets for stock reared on the farm.
DESCRIPTION
Crumstane Farm comprises an attractive and compact farm located within the Central Borders, extending to approximately 41.48 Ha (102.50 Acres) in total including roads, yards and buildings. The property is equipped with a C-listed Georgian farmhouse and traditional B-listed farm steading and is accessed via a private farm road which leads off the A6105 which links Duns to Berwick.
The farmland comprises a mix of productive Grade 3.1 pasture and arable ground all lying within a ring fence which is bound to the east by the A6105. The land is generally of a southerly aspect rising from 93m above sea level adjacent to the minor public road which bounds the property to the south, to 130m to the north east of farm steading. The farmland is currently all down to pasture but would be well suited to arable production and other winter harvested vegetables with the remaining land split between amenity woodland, pasture and a former mill pond. The individual fields are all of a good size with stock proof fencing and benefit from excellent access from the farm steading via a network of internal farm tracks and a former dismantled railway line.
FARMING HISTORY
Crumstane Farm has been in same family since 1942 and was run as a traditional mixed farming unit with a cereals and pasture rotation until the current owner decided to diversify and established a farm park from 1990 to 2001. The farm has been run as a compact rare breed livestock unit from 2001 until the present day.

The land is split into two principal enclosures which are down to pasture and would be suited to amenity or equestrian use, and a section of the former railway line.
