Maybole, South Ayrshire, KA19

Grange House is an exceptional B-listed Georgian property set within approximately 29 acres of landscaped gardens, parkland, and mature woodland, offering a rare opportunity to acquire one of Ayrshire's finest country homes.

Described in The Castles and Mansions of Ayrshire as having a “handsome and gracious aspect”, Grange House is a classical Georgian manor constructed of sandstone under a slate roof. Its striking central pilastered doorway leads into a beautifully proportioned residence arranged over four floors and approached via electric gates and a sweeping driveway through formal parkland.

The property has been sympathetically and comprehensively restored to an exacting standard, combining the elegance of its period architecture with all the comforts of modern living. The accommodation is both extensive and flexible, offering generous ceiling heights, excellent natural light, and a layout ideally suited for family life and entertaining.

Modern enhancements include ground source heating and an integrated surround sound system throughout the principal rooms, including the kitchen/dining room, living room, drawing room, dining room, and principal bedroom suite.

The welcoming reception hall, finished with elegant flagstone flooring, sets the tone for the home and features a grand spiral stone staircase rising to the upper floors. The principal reception rooms radiate off this central space and offer exceptional proportions and period detailing throughout.

The drawing room is an elegant space with a fine fireplace featuring a carved surround, steel inset, and marble hearth. The formal dining room, also with a marble fireplace, is ideal for entertaining and is complemented by a butler's pantry fitted with bespoke cabinetry, warming drawer, and wine fridge. A spacious study, with fitted bookcases and an attractive fireplace, enjoys serene views across the rear gardens.

The heart of the home is the beautifully appointed kitchen/dining room, with bespoke cabinetry, a central island, flagstone floors, and an oil-fired Aga with twin hotplates. The adjoining walk-in pantry and utility room ensure practical family living, while a separate WC adds further convenience. A dumbwaiter links the kitchen to the upper levels. From here, a cosy living room leads through to a conservatory with lovely views over the peaceful gardens.

On the first floor, a generous landing gives access to the impressive principal bedroom suite, which enjoys open views over the grounds. The suite includes a fitted dressing room and luxurious en suite bathroom with a freestanding bath, dual basins, concealed walk-in shower, and heated towel rail. Two additional double bedrooms on this floor also benefit from en suite facilities – one with a freestanding bath and marble-topped sinks, and the
other with a stylish shower room.

The second floor offers two further bedrooms served by a family bathroom with freestanding bath, curved shower enclosure, WC, and bespoke Lomond Drummond basin.

Once the Coach House for Grange House, an attractive stone-and-slate cottage has been transformed into a charming, fully self-contained residence arranged over one and a half storeys.

Grange House is a distinguished Georgian country residence dating from around 1750, sympathetically extended and significantly enhanced to form a classic country estate. It lies just four miles south of the historic village of Alloway, the birthplace of Robert Burns, and is set within approximately 29 acres of beautifully landscaped gardens and mature woodland.

The property enjoys a wonderfully private and picturesque setting and comes complete with a separate letting cottage, traditional stables with a studio flat above, an ornamental lake, and a fully self-contained gymnasium.
The house and its outbuildings have undergone an extensive and meticulous programme of modernisation.

The nearby village of Alloway provides a range of everyday amenities including a general store, post office, chemist, library, and primary school. There are excellent sporting facilities at Cambusdoon Cricket and Hockey
Club, and the area is also home to Ayr Rugby Club, a championship-winning team.

Ayr itself offers comprehensive retail shopping and is home to Wellington School, a well-regarded private co-educational school. For the commuter,
the A77 offers fast road connections to Glasgow and the central belt. Mainline railway stations can be found at Ayr, Prestwick, and Troon, while Prestwick International Airport provides regular flights to many European destinations.

Ayrshire is renowned worldwide for its golf, with championship courses at Royal Troon, Prestwick, and Turnberry. The Firth of Clyde offers excellent sailing opportunities, with marinas at Troon and further along the coast at Largs.
