Description
LOT 1: FARMHOUSE, BUILDINGS AND ABOUT 7.76 ACRES GRAZING LAND
East Hillhead Farm is a handsome extended farmhouse in an elevated unspoilt position with a range of buildings, beautiful mature gardens and grazing land. Situated in a tranquil yet accessible location, close to the popular village of Mauchline which has a thriving centre with a number of shops including a local supermarket, doctor’s surgery, post office and well regarded hotel as well as primary schooling. It lies almost equidistant between the main towns of Ayr and Kilmarnock which both have a good range of high street shops and supermarkets as well as good recreational and professional facilities. Glasgow city centre and airport are both easily reached via the A/M77 and there are also regular bus and train services from Kilmarnock. Auchinleck has a railway station on the Glasgow South Western Line (about 5.9 miles).
Ayrshire is renowned for its many golf courses including the world famous courses at Royal Troon and Turnberry. Ballochmyle Golf course (3 miles) is a popular 18 hole course and Rowallan Castle Estate golf course is some 12 miles away. There is the popular Racecourse in Ayr home to the Scottish Grand National and excellent yachting facilities at the marinas in Troon and Largs.
The 44 mile River Ayr Way long distance walk is nearby, and the route travels along by Sorn Castle and the impressive Ballochmyle Viaduct at Mauchline which is the highest masonry railway viaduct in Britain are both particularly interesting sections of the walk.
Nearby places of interest include Dumfries House, a Palladian country house set in a 2,000 acre estate with an outstanding collection of 18th century furniture, beautiful walled gardens owned by HRH Prince Charles. Auchinleck Mansion House, was built by Lord Auchinleck, James Boswell in the late 1700s. The Scottish classic-style mansion was designed by Robert Adam, one of Scotland’s most famous architects. There is a popular coffee and gift shop (Boswell’s Coach House) within the Estate grounds together with lovely countryside walks.
East Hillhead Farm is a very impressive country residence containing a beautifully appointed country house protected by extensive grounds, gardens and land of about 10.35 acres, stabling and a range of buildings. It is approached via a private drive to a tarmacadam courtyard.
The stone farmhouse was built in 1840 partly of red sandstone and brick, under a slate roof on two storeys with a rendered finish. The whole property is equipped and improved to a high standard. East Hillhead farmhouse has retained many original features including ornate cornicing and panelled doors. It has a wonderfully impressive garden / dining room (about 10.46m x 5.92m) with oak flooring and lovely open fireplace, full height windows which opens out to the rear lawned gardens and patio.
From the spacious entrance hallway, this leads to the lovely east facing family / dining room which has tranquil views overlooking the gardens with wood burning stove and shelved alcove, the living / family room is an airy and bright room with dual aspect windows, wood burning stove and bay window. The country farmhouse kitchen has tiled floor, base and wall units, double sink and a pistachio gas range cooker with space for fridge freezer. There is a spacious shower room with under floor heating, separate w.c., and useful utility room with sink and plumbing for washing machine.
