£2.65m Scottish farm put on market first time in over 100 years
29th April 2024
A Scottish 380-acre mixed arable and livestock farm has been put up for sale for the first time since 1918.
Denbrae Farm in Fife, worth over £2,650,000, consists of a traditional three-bed farmhouse, a semi-detached four-bedroom cottage, a range of farm buildings, as well as Grade 3.1 and Grade 3.2 farmland that extends to 153.55 hectares (379.42 acres).
Excellent agricultural property
Duncan Barrie, a partner with Galbraith that manages the sale, said: “The seller’s family have farmed Denbrae since 1918, and thus the sale presents a rare opportunity to acquire a productive mixed farm capable of supporting a good range of crops in a scenic setting about three miles from Cupar and some eight miles from St Andrews.
“The farm offers significant potential for modernisation or development of the traditional farmhouse and a large range of steading buildings and is equipped with a separate cottage and about 150 hectares of productive arable and pastureland.
“Denbrae is an excellent agricultural property which will be of interest to a wide range of buyers.”

Land with potential
The agent explained that the farm’s arable land can be worked to a good depth and a continuous programme of ditching and drainage works.
Applications of manure generated on the holding have ensured that the land has been used to its maximum potential.
The land is relatively free draining, allowing for both establishment and harvest to be successfully completed at the extreme ends of the season.
The fields are all well laid-out and of a generous size, can easily accommodate modern machinery, and are readily accessible from the public road or via an excellent network of internal tracks.
Denbrae Farm is for sale as a whole through Galbraith for offers over £2,650,000. View the offer here.
