Lot 1:
Easter Eurach was planted in the early 2000s under a woodland creation scheme to establish a native woodland. All grants have now been paid and no further obligations for replanting are required.
The site contains areas of PAWS (Plantation on Ancient Woodland Sites) and ASNW (Ancient Semi Natural Woodland). This comprises of well-established birch, hawthorn, rowan, willow, oak, ash, alder, gean, Scots pine, bird cherry. The planted ash has mostly died due ash dieback. Naturally regenerated Sitka spruce has established throughout the new woodland creation, although not at high levels.
A small shelter belt of Sitka spruce remains to the west with limited access.
The property was deer-fenced prior to planting, but this is now porous. A stalker shoots deer at the property. Natural regeneration is generally not occurring partly because of the deer pressure.
Lot 2:
An exciting development opportunity comprising approximately 0.5 hectares of open land, beautifully enveloped by mature amenity woodlands. Situated on relatively flat ground, in the scenic area of Eurach, just north of Lochgilphead, this tranquil plot benefits from direct access onto the public road. While the previous planning permission for a single dwelling has recently lapsed, the site offers exceptional potential for buyers looking to reinstate permission and create a bespoke rural home.
