Perthshire river teeming with trout and surrounding woodland put on the market for £100,000

A stretch of Perthshire river teeming with trout and surrounding woodland have been put up for sale for offers over £100,000.

The sale of Wester Invervar Wood and River includes ownership to the midpoint of a section of the River Lyon which flows east past the property.

The river, designated as a Special Area of Conservation, provides prominent trout fishing from its banks.

It is also home to a vast array of wildlife, with otters, ospreys, kingfishers and beavers frequently spotted there.

The Lyon is a major western tributary of the Tay. It rises in the hills just east of Bridge of Orchy, and then flows about 35 miles before meeting the upper Tay a few miles west of Aberfeldy.

The private access to the river means a host of leisure and recreational activities can be enjoyed, including kayaking, canoeing, paddle boarding, rafting and wild swimming.

Subject to the necessary consents, the purchaser could create mooring to give easier means of entry to the water.

The woodland, extending to 4.25 Ha, was planted under a Farm Woodland Premium Scheme in 1989 and contains an attractive array of mixed broadleaves including birch, rowan, ash and sycamore.

This diverse mosaic of species is accompanied by pockets of open ground that feed down to the riverbank.

Wester Invervar Wood and River lies to the west of the village of Invervar and has been made available through John Clegg & Co,

Harry Graham, associate director at John Clegg & Co, said: “The combination of woodland and a beautiful stretch of a river in such a picturesque part of Scotland is not something that launches to the market every day.

“It gives the purchaser the opportunity to enjoy all that comes with this exceptionally rare property, from fishing for trout from the banks of the river to spotting otters in the water.

“It would be your own slice of Scottish paradise.”
