Lot 1 Land – Offers Over £150,000

Lot 1 extents to approximately 1872.55 Acres (757.79 Ha) and
includes a hill loch ‘Loch nam Madadh Uisge’ in addition to sporadic sections of the foreshore, as well as the mineral and sporting rights.

According to the James Hutton Institute’s land classification for agriculture system, the land is designated as Grade 6 which is widely regarded as capable rough grazings and often has a high value in terms of storing carbon.

The land rises to its highest point in the south at Glas-Bheinn
Bheag reaching 320m above sea level with views to the west to the dramatic Black Cuillin peaks of Blà Bheinn, Sgùrr a’ Ghreadaidh and Sgùrr Dearg with the latter being most famous for its improbable tower of the Inaccessible Pinnacle (the In Pinn).

Lot 1 might lend itself to the establishment of a new native
broadleaf woodland planting scheme with the potential for
generating certified carbon credits. In addition, there may be scope for a Natural Capital Bio-diversity Scheme, however, any such schemes would be subject to the proposed purchasers carrying out their own due diligence and satisfying themselves. The A87 public road follows the northern boundary of the Estate.

The former public road with metalled base can be accessed to the east off the A87 and used to allow access all the way to Luib which is in poor condition and not entirely passable with a road vehicle beyond the Free Church site if taking access from the east. Given the road's previous engineering, upgrading should be comparatively economic compared to starting afresh. Once complete this will allow for easy access through the Estate and out onto the open hill either side.

The southern portion of Lot 1 is part of the Cullins Special
Protection Area (SPA), classified as such due to its breeding
population of golden eagles, the SPA location currently has 8
breeding pairs, which constitute about 1.9% of the UK population.

This population has a high breeding productivity for the west coast
