Description
58-Acre Estate & Leisure Land Opportunity

Haddockston Estate (Haddockston Trout Fishery), West Glen Road, Kilmacolm, PA6 7GU

Guide Price: £2,000,000

Confirmed Planning History

-Commercial fishery consented on appeal (April 2021): pontoons, access, car parking, modular building and landscaping
-Former 9-hole golf course, originally approved as 6 holes in 2004 and extended to 9 in 2006, now disused, offering potential for reactivation or repurposing subject to fresh consent
-Haddockston House, the mansion house converted to 8 residential apartments, with associated garaging
-1991 outline consent for a conference centre with ancillary leisure and bedroom accommodation
-Estate office/workshop building and an estate worker's dwelling (occupancy-restricted)
-Site area confirmed at approximately 58.4 acres

Future Potential (Illustrative Concept, Subject to Planning):
A preliminary masterplan has been prepared by Jewitt and Wilkie Architects (September 2019) illustrating how the estate could accommodate a wider scheme of 172 units, alongside a village centre, spa and clubhouse facilities. This is a design concept only. It has never been submitted for or granted planning permission, and any scheme would require a fresh planning application, with no guarantee of consent. The illustrative mix comprises:

-35 x 3-bed bungalows with garage
-64 x 2-bed bungalows with garage
-21 x 2-bed cottages
-8 x two-storey mews cottages (Walled Garden)
-44 x apartments over two storeys
-Haddockston House reconfigured as a village centre, spa and administration hub

The concept masterplan also envisages retained leisure infrastructure, including a pitch & putt course, clubhouse, parking, and shore/forest walking routes, indicating potential to combine residential, assisted living, or leisure-led uses across the site.

The Opportunity:
An opportunity to acquire approximately 58 acres of estate and leisure land in the highly desirable village of Kilmacolm, anchored by an established commercial fishery, a former golf course, and a converted mansion house, all within one of Renfrewshire's most affluent locations. The site benefits from excellent connectivity to Glasgow, Glasgow Airport, the M8 motorway network and nearby rail links, surrounded by well-regarded schools, golf courses and countryside amenities. Beyond the confirmed uses above, previous applications for a hotel, holiday lodges, and expanded leisure/golf facilities were withdrawn or left undetermined, and a detailed illustrative masterplan for 172 units has been prepared but never submitted for consent, underlining the scale of ambition this site has attracted and its potential for a buyer to bring forward a flagship scheme, subject to a fresh planning application, in an established and sought-after setting.
