If the lore of Scotland intrigues you—either through history, the royals, or the recent pop culture phenomenon of “Traitors”—then this majestic new listing is a treat to set eyes on. Famous for its sporting reputation and natural beauty, Tulchan Estate is a 21,768-acre property (larger than Bermuda or Manhattan) that has welcomed influential figures such as King George V, President Theodore Roosevelt, JP Morgan, and William Vanderbilt. The illustrious property has only gotten more luxurious and diverse since they saw it, and it’s now up for sale asking £67 million.
Certainly no private home, this is a true sporting retreat where members of the Tulchan Club can fish, hunt, dine, and stay in splendor. The next owner can continue running it as an elite club, or envision it’s next chapter for more frequent personal use.
Either way, there are magnificent spots to take in. The circa-1906 Edwardian main house, Tulchan Lodge, is currently known as the “member’s lodge” and awaits for sophisticated living with five principal reception rooms and 14 ensuite bedrooms. Knocktulchan Lodge has another six ensuite bedrooms for guests or club members, and there are holiday cottages to host even more outdoor enthusiasts, too. With so many options for luxury accomodations, you can see why a membership here is coveted and ultra-expensive.
Of course, people are often visiting this renowned Scottish Highlands estate to be outside in camaraderie or to enjoy a sense of seclusion. You can find that across the landscape with winding rivers, thick forests, rugged moorland, and peaceful farmland. River Spey provides eight miles of salmon fishing while duck, pheasant, and deer hunting are also popular activities. For the next owner, the estate already has many established hospitality, farming, and food businesses that generate income as well.
With this listing, 100% of the shares of Tulchan Estate, currently owned by Tulchan Sporting Estates Limited, are for sale. Country & Town House reports that the company currently belongs to Russian vodka billionaire Yuri Schefler. He purchased it for £25 million in 2017. Prior to that, it was in the hands of the aristocratic Litchfield family for two decades.
Looking for its next steward, Savills holds the rare listing.
