3 bedroom cottage for sale

Dunduff Cottage, by Dunure – An exceptionally rare opportunity to acquire a splendid semi-rural Traditional Detached Cottage, circa 19th Century, discreetly situated on the hillside just south of Dunure enjoying delightful partial sea views from the cottage itself and its grounds. Whilst enjoying a wonderful tranquil location Dunduff Cottage is a short drive from the coastal road which runs from the outskirts of Ayr towards Culzean Castle and thereafter through Maidens to Turnberry and beyond.

Historically believed to have been two adjoining cottages the property was subsequently developed into one cottage, now providing an appealing character home with flexible on-the-level accommodation. The present owner has modified the cottage slightly for disabled use however it can easily be used in its existing format of 4/5 main apartments or perhaps offers the successful purchaser the opportunity to develop the cottage further (subject to any required planning permission etc) to maximise its splendid countryside setting/partial sea views.

Particular mention must be made of delightful countryside setting that Dunduff Cottage enjoys with the few properties set within and accessed from Dunduff Farm road (under ownership of the farm with a right of access for the other owners – full details can be confirmed from title deeds) providing a sense of security rather than intrusion. The private gardens surround the cottage on three sides and are currently flourishing cottage style gardens (with a small burn to the rear) which offer the new owner the opportunity to exercise their imagination and develop the gardens further or enjoy them in their existing format with the magnetic appeal of the partial sea views (and Ailsa Craig on the rear horizon) both to the front and rear.

The cottage can be accessed from either side with the main entrance (to the right) leading onto a reception hall, of corridor style, this leading onto two bedrooms(Nos 1 & 2) and a “wet room” style bathroom (No 1), from this hallway one enters onto a substantial lounge/dining room which retains considerable character and charm – the lounge having a large focal point fireplace and private views over the side gardens whilst the dining room offering an invitation to sit by the windows to the front and enjoy the partial sea views on the horizon. A door from the lounge/dining leads through a breakfasting style kitchen and onto the rear hallway off which are located another bedroom (No 3), another bathroom (No 2) and a most useful larger size utility room. The secondary entrance/exit to the cottage is also situated off this hallway.

Attic storage is available. Oil central heating and double glazing are featured. A private monobloc driveway provides private parking to the front of the property whilst also leading to a detached timber built garage which offers secure parking/storage. Services are understood to include mains electricity, water and a septic tank (details to be confirmed). EPC Rating - E

Graeme Lumsden, Estate Agency Director of Black Hay comments –

“As an estate agent for over 25 years people often ask where I live. I’ve unwittingly mostly had homes with an open outlook, originally from Glasgow I realised that even the flats that I lived in there always had an open view. Several years ago I moved to the country and I honestly feel that once you have lived in the country and enjoyed all that it has to offer it is hard to go back to a town or city…… however a house with country and sea views?

Dunduff Cottage will be of immense appeal to the client seeking a Traditional Country Cottage in a truly picturesque setting with the wonderful added attraction of partial sea views……. yet easily accessible on the coastal road from Ayr. A cottage enjoying the dual aspects of open countryside and the sea, at an affordable price, is much rarer than you think, particularly one that is easily accessible from a main coastal town like Ayr. If you’ve dreamed of a home with sea views or country views then Dunduff Cottage ticks both boxes!”
