Description

Escape the Everyday... Own Your Own Woodland Retreat

Outstanding opportunity to acquire a FREEHOLD woodland plot in one of Dundee's most desirable and affluent locations. Nestled beside the iconic Seven Arches Viaduct and surrounded by prestigious homes, this beautiful woodland offers a peaceful escape with exciting lifestyle, leisure and long-term investment potential.

Super Sized Plot 3275 square meters. 0.8 acres

Situated within the sought-after Tay Woodland at Broughty Ferry, this attractive woodland plot presents a rare opportunity to own your own private piece of Scotland in an area where land seldom comes to the open market.

Whether you're looking for a tranquil retreat, a place to unwind with family and friends, or simply somewhere to reconnect with nature, this woodland offers endless possibilities.

The land could provide an excellent setting for private camping, a woodland retreat, bushcraft activities, wildlife watching, picnics, outdoor fitness, family recreation, dog walking or simply enjoying the peace and tranquillity of your own woodland.

Purchasers may also wish to explore the longer-term potential for glamping, eco-tourism, a shepherd's hut, woodland cabins, forest school activities, wellness retreats, outdoor education or adventure-based experiences, subject to obtaining all necessary planning permissions and statutory consents.

The woodland enjoys an excellent location close to the picturesque Dighty Burn, offering nearby fishing opportunities (subject to the necessary permits), while the beautiful sands of Broughty Ferry Beach are only a short distance away. The property also offers excellent access to the vibrant city of Dundee, the historic town of St Andrews, and the world-famous Carnoustie Golf Links, making it an outstanding base from which to enjoy some of Scotland's finest attractions.

Positioned beneath the impressive Seven Arches Viaduct, the woodland enjoys a unique and characterful setting surrounded by mature trees and abundant wildlife.

Importantly, we are advised that there are no Tree Preservation Orders affecting the land, providing purchasers with greater flexibility in the future management of the woodland, subject to any statutory requirements.

The land is offered without planning permission and is considered suitable for amenity, leisure and recreational use. Any future development or commercial use will naturally be subject to obtaining all necessary consents, and Braveheart Auctions can offer no advice or guarantees regarding planning.

Opportunities to acquire FREEHOLD woodland in such an affluent and well-connected location are exceptionally rare.

Whether you're looking for a peaceful sanctuary, a unique family recreation space, a lifestyle investment or simply your own private woodland to enjoy for generations to come, this is an opportunity not to be missed.

This lot will be sold under auction terms and conditions by Braveheart Auctions.
