About this property

  • The subjects comprise a ring fenced block of farmland extending to approximately 25.81 hectares (63.77 acres) in total and ranging from 45m to 50m above sea level. The farmland is presented in four enclosures and is predominantly Class 3(2) according to the James Hutton Institute land classification maps and is current in permanent pasture for grazing livestock.

    The land is accessible from the south via the private road to Laigh Midton, from the north via Monkwood Mains or from the west via Monkwood village (there are 2 no. gateways from the Main Road). The Laigh Midton and Monkwood Mains access routes are constituted by non-exclusive servitude rights with maintenance on a user basis.

    We understand that there is a mains water connection which feeds to 4 water troughs on the land.

Local information

  • The land is situated on the edge of Minishant, a small village on the A77 some 4 miles south of Ayr. Ayrshire is renowned for its mild climate and one of the earliest growing seasons in the country. The region of southwest Scotland is a genuinely rural area well known for dairy and livestock farming, magnificent countryside, extensive forestry and a scenic coastline. This is a conveniently located block of productive farmland which could be a useful addition to an existing farm business, or for lifestyle and equestrian interests.
