Features and description

PROPERTY
Hillside Timber Yard is currently used for woodchip and wholesale firewood production and has previously been used as a sawmill. The property is serviced by a

There is a Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) payment received in respect of the biomass boiler and this equipment is included within the sale.

The building is serviced by a good-sized surrounding yard area currently used for timber and associated storage, together with part of the adjoining field which
runs to the west. In all the site extends to 1.76 acres.
