Bargain!
How long would it take to get into Glasgow or Edinburgh from there do you think? Could you do it by bus and/or train and if so how?

Train from Alloa to Glasgow or Edinburgh - 10 minutes by car from Forestmill.

Scarey place ..... the inhabitants wouldn't look out of place in the movie Deliverance   :D


No insult intended..... just in case one of us live there

There's a masterplan development of 1500 houses at Forestmill. the development includes a primary school, hotel, equestrian centre and golf course. Don't know when it will get off the ground but it's got planning approval. Don't know how it relates to thsi property though.

This has been on the cards for many, many years so far.

This place isn't really at Forestmill.  It's next door to my friend Liz almost at the end of the B910 where it goes onto the B977

Nothing wrong with Forestmill anyway.  If I had seen that before my present home I'd have bought it, and if I thought I could sell this I'd buy it.  It would just suit me fine.  Val - don't hesitate.  I don't think it'll staythere long - and come and see me if you decide to view - just 5 minutes away on the edge of Clacks village.  Quite handy for your sister and the rest of the family too. ;D

I might arrange to view it! If I do i will give you a shout Anne. I'd have to sell thhis house first and that might not be easy in this climate....

Have been offered lambs twice this week! My son is desperate but alas we have no room for sheep.

There's no road works or houses anywhere near this place.  It's on the B910.  Forestmill is past the crossroad of the B910 and B977 and about 3 miles up the road from that.

I think it depends what price bracket you are in.  The houses above £200K are slow, under that are moving within about 4 to 6 weeks, over £300 they are taking months.  You can put in a noted interest anywa and then they ahve to let you know if tehy go to a closing date, then you can decide if you want to offer.
Val, I'll PM my phone numbers
