Derelict farmhouse, steading & 20.5 acres
Offers over £150,000

Lot 2: West Sunnybraes ruins and field
This block of land extends to 20.5 acres of mainly ploughable south-facing, recently reseeded grassland with the Saline Burn on its south boundary. West Sunnybraes ruins lie at its east end with a road along its full north side. There is a ruin in the field which has medium to long term potential to secure planning consent for a house. The field is in excellent condition. It has good fencing, a burn water supply and a mains electricity line going through it. Vehicular access is through Killernie Farm (see plan). There is a condition on the road that the land can be used for agriculture, grazing, silage. The access right states: ‘Right of pedestrian, agricultural and vehicular access and that for agricultural (including silage transport), sporting (including for vermin controllers used by the Retained Subjects Proprietors) and forestry (including non-commercial timber haulage).’
Lot 3
20 acres of land including a tree shelter belt and a burn which is set in an attractive sheltered area. A section of the land is quite hard and not boggy. Unfortunately there is a condition from the wind turbine company that they would have to approve of any structure being built within 600 metres of the wind turbine. The whole area sits within this perimeter.

Broadband availability and predicted speed
Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:
Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
