AMENITIES AND LOCATION Woodmouth Farm sits in a secluded setting yet part of it lies adjacent to the attractive hamlet of St David’s, in the beautiful Strathearn Valley. It sits between Perth, Auchterarder and Crieff, in the heart of Perthshire. St David’s is a small hamlet with a new village hall and as the land lies into the hamlet there may be some scope for future housing development on some of the farmland. The Parish of Madderty lies a mile away and has a church and a primary school with a great reputation. Secondary schooling is available at Crieff and Perth. Private schools are also available at Ardvreck and Morrison’s in Crieff (5m), Glenalmond (7m), Strathallan (11m) and Kilgraston (13m). Crieff, lying 6 miles to the west provides excellent facilities with Crieff Hydro (swimming pool, tennis, squash), hotels, bars, supermarkets, shops, bank, library, health centre, cottage hospital etc.

Lying about 6 miles away to the south is Auchterarder which provides excellent facilities similar to Crieff. Gleneagles (7m) has a mainline railway station with regular daily services to the north and south. Gleneagles Hotel provides excellent facilities including golf courses and a riding school. Perth lies about 9 miles to the east and provides more extensive services including leisure centres, Perth Royal Infirmary, library, banks, bus and rail stations, cinema, theatre and a concert hall. The university town of Stirling is 30 minutes away. Dundee is about 40 minutes drive and provides a university, a swimming pool and an airport. For the golfers there are 3 courses at Gleneagles and courses at Auchterarder, Crieff, Comrie and Dunning, Perth, Dunkeld, Blairgowrie and Alyth. The nearby hills and glens offer an array of walks and activities, Loch Earn and Loch Tay are also nearby. Strathearn is well known for its beautiful and spectacular landscape as well as its fertile productive land.

DESCRIPTION Lot 1 - Farm steading, potential house plot and 73.18 acres (29.61ha) STEADING

General purpose portal framed grain store 100’ x 50’ x 14’ to eaves, built in 2006, with a concrete floor. Concrete grain walls to 5’6” and profiled steel walls and roof.

Dutch barn 60’ x 30’ x 12’ to eaves. Built in 2010 Grain Drier Shed 27’ x 27’ x 12’ to eaves with gas-fired OPICO grain drier

with an intake hopper and a 2000 litre LPG tank. There is no mains electricity in the steading but there is a three phase pole line adjacent (the sellers have used a generator in the past). There is no mains water in the steading but there is a connection at point L on the sale plan.

POTENTIAL HOUSE PLOT There is a fantastic location for a house plot a hundred yards to the south of the farm steading (subject to securing planning consent) The site sits in a slightly elevated position in the middle of the farm and commands fantastic views to the south, east, west and north over the Strathearn Valley (see front cover photo and photos on page 6). Almost all of the farm can be seen from this location. In the short term, planning consent would likely be given by Perth and Kinross Planning Department for a log house or mobile home on a site near the farm steading for security purposes (to keep an eye on stock/horses etc). Similar consents have been given on much smaller blocks of land (eg 18 acres if planning permission is given for a mobile home and 20 stables). Once the occupant proves they have been running a viable business from the mobile home/log house for 18 months there is an excellent chance that planning permission would be secured for a permanent house (the present owner could assist the incoming owner to manage the new business so as to secure the consent) Please refer to Rod McCrae of McCrae & McCrae Ltd to discuss.

LOT 1 – LAND 73.18 ACRES (29.57HA) The lands are located to the south east of St David’s hamlet and to the south, east and west of the farm steading. They are mainly south facing between 200 and 250 feet above sea level. They are classified as grade 3(1) by The Macauley Institute of Land Classification.

LOT 2 – 16.46 ACRES (6.67HA) Lot 2 extends to 16.46 acres and lies into the hamlet of St David’s. This Lot has excellent potential to be subdivided for nearby house owners or has potential for securing planning consent for a few houses along the public road at the North/Eastern edge of lot 2. The sellers are not requiring any clawback for future development so it could be an excellent investment with some future development potential.

LOT 3 – 5.19 ACRES (2.10HA) 5.19 acres of gently sloping ploughable arable land. This field has recently been re-fenced along its south edge. It lies into Woodmouth House and the converted farm steading. LOT 4 – 17.29 ACRES (6.99HA) 17.29 acres of arable land and 4 acres of permanent pasture lay. These 4 acres can flood from time to time.
