Description

High Park Farm is situated on the banks of the Water of Ken at the Northern end of Loch Ken. It is a productive stock rearing farm, benefitting from modern and traditional farm buildings, a traditional farmhouse (development potential) and about 164 acres of agricultural land. The agricultural land is all down to grass for grazing or forage crops.

The traditional farmhouse would benefit from a degree of refurbishment, however, provides a blank canvas to any potential purchaser, and is situated in a lovely location with far reaching countryside views across the valley. High Park benefits from a range of modern and traditional buildings. The buildings have been utilised for the overwintering of the beef herd.

High Park Farm extends in total to about 165.71 acres (67.06Ha) to include the areas occupied by the farmhouse, steading, yards, access roads, amenity woodlands etc. The land lies within a ring fence split only by the A713 road.

The holding features 19 specific good sized field enclosures, which are currently all down to grass for grazing and conservation (silage). The land is classified as predominantly yield class 4 of the Macaulay Institute for Soil Research (Land Capability Study), as produced by the James Hutton Institute. The farm is self-sufficient in-home grown forage and capable of any type of livestock production.
