Elgin

Little Buinach is a unique, small sporting estate of circa 62 acres, nestled in the midst of whisky country with rolling hills, fast flowing rivers, fertile farmland, white beaches and stunning coastlines.

The spacious 5-bedroom home, extended from the original stone cottage, sits in an elevated position in the centre of the property with established lines of trees radiating out from the house to create large, sheltered paddocks in all directions. The views from the house are stunning at all times of year, with lush greenery in the spring and stunning changes of colour in the autumn, a picture from every window. Wildlife abounds with deer, pheasants, red squirrels, pine martens, badgers, hawks and a multitude of birds making their home in this secluded, tranquil environment. With four reception areas, the house has been designed to suit a large family or to accommodate entertaining.

Two large outbuildings complete the picture.

Currently used as a luxury country residence with superb sporting opportunities the property has pheasant pens, a duck pond and ample trees. Over the past 30 years, Little Buinach might be considered the most successful small shoot in Morayshire, with driven days ranging from 25 to 75 birds. Although the current owner has done little roe stalking in recent years, the property has previously produced between 12 and 14 roe each year.

Equally suitable for a high-end equestrian facility the sloping fields are well-draining and offer superb grazing, with trees offering shelter to every field. Toward the front of the property the fields are level and could be suitable for external or covered arenas. Hacking is available directly from the property up into the adjacent forest, or just a short trailer ride to the outstanding white beaches at Roseisle. Although Moray is truly horse-heaven with a number of competition venues, there are very few yards in the vicinity that have the potential that Little Buinach could offer.

With a temperate climate, the Moray Coast is a haven for outdoor sports; sailing, horse riding, hillwalking, skiing and cycling. The air is clean, and the northern lights are a frequent occurrence.
