Attraction­s at North Kilduff Farm

-

Located four miles west of Kinross the farm, which is being sold through Bidwells at offers over £650,000, has good access to the M90 but retains a rural location on the southern side of the Ochil Hills, with views of the Lomond and Cleish hills.

It boasts ample horse accommodat­ion and grazing extending to 6.93 acres.

Floodlit outdoor and indoor schools are suitable for jumping, dressage and schooling.

The outdoor arena is large enough to use as a polo pitch.

The proximity of the farm to horse events at venues such as Blair Atholl and Forgandenn­y makes it a draw for enthusiast­s and those involved in competing.

It is also popular with those keen to learn how to play polo, a sport once regarded as a rich man’s game.

Set amid rolling countrysid­e, the farm sits some 160 metres above sea level, and benefits from the relatively dry east coast climate.

This can allow horses and livestock to be grazed outside throughout the year.

The land here is capable of growing good grass, fodder and arable crops.

The compact and well-designed layout lends itself to be used as either an equestrian unit or an agricultur­al smallholdi­ng, with ample livestock handling facilities.

At the heart of the farm is an outdoor equestrian arena with a drained whinstone dust surface which allows it to be used for a variety of purposes.

There is also a large yard and, within it, two caravans.

Both have mains water, electricit­y and are connected to the farmhouses’ septic tank.
