About this property
Set on a working farm and surrounded by verdant countryside, this fabulous rural retreat serves up some of the best sunsets you’ll ever see. It’s just a mile from Dalrymple, where you’ll find a convenience store, and 4 miles from Alloway, birthplace of Robert Burns and a leafy suburb of steeped-in-history coastal favourite Ayr. Home to a wide choice of appetite-whetting eateries and shops, Ayr also has a sandy beach, which is the perfect place for a stroll – on a clear day, the view reaches as far as the Isle of Arran and the north coast of Ireland. If a game of golf is more your bag, Ayrshire is home to many courses, such as Royal Troon (13 miles). For a family- and pet-friendly day out, the Rozelle Estate (5 miles) has a beautiful park with mature woodland, rhododendron walks and an ornamental pond, plus a free-to-enter museum, art galleries and a tea room.
Enjoying an elevated position with driveway parking, this property impresses at first sight. Three steps lead up to the front door; pass through the vestibule into the hallway, and to the left, the spacious lounge has a scene-stealing picture window which frames fabulous views of the surrounding landscape. Stretch out on a choice of comfortable sofas to watch TV, and when tummies start to rumble, move through the hallway into the kitchen/diner. Contemporary cabinets, another large window and a handsome dining suite add charm to this convivial space. A door and four stairs lead down to a spacious utility area with laundry facilities and garden access – perfect if dogs are among your holiday party – while another door from the utility area leads into a snug-style seating area. When it’s time to sleep, to the right of the main hallway is a family bathroom and three bedrooms, each featuring a zip-and-link king-size bed that can be made up as twins on request. For added convenience, one of the bedrooms also boasts its own en-suite shower room.
With trees and a patchwork of fertile farmland all around, the gardens here blend into the landscape beautifully. Unwind on the patio as children and pets play on the lawn to the rear of the property, or step into the large covered area where there’s a football table and, for the ultimate in laid-back luxury, a hot tub.
