Description
At the east boundary of Blanefield Estate in a peaceful and scenic countryside setting, there is a pair of pretty semi-detached cottages (East Cottage and West Cottage). Traditional in style, each cottage comprises on the ground floor a hallway, sitting room and kitchen and on the upper floor, two double bedrooms and a shower room. They each benefit from a courtyard to rear and lawned gardens to the front. East Cottage also has a garage/outbuilding. Now requiring refurbishment, either cottage would make an ideal upgrading project for a new owner to put their own stamp on a period property.
Location
Blanefield Estate is close to the heart of Burns’ country with the most tangible reminder of Burns in the nearby village of Kirkoswald where Soutar Johnnie’s Cottage has been restored and is now in the care of the National Trust for Scotland. This picturesque village dates back to 1244 and was built by monks who, at the same time, founded Crossraguel Abbey, 2 miles to the northeast. Near Blanefield is the world famous Turnberry Hotel and golf courses. The Turnberry Hotel, built by James Miller, was opened in 1906 as the world’s first golf resort and established itself as one of the world’s finest destinations for golf.
Ayr is Ayrshire’s foremost town and offers a good range of high street shops, supermarkets, recreational and professional facilities and a number of well known restaurants. There is excellent private schooling at Wellington School for children from the age of 3 – 18.
The Ayrshire coast is famous worldwide for golf with championship courses at Turnberry (the venue for the British Open in 2009), Royal Troon and Prestwick Old (the original home of the British Open). There is also excellent sailing with yachting marinas at Troon and further up the coast at Largs and Inverkip. South Ayrshire is also noted for its field sports including pheasant, partridge, game and grouse shooting with first class shoots on nearby estates.
Prestwick Airport is just to the north of Ayr and has services to a number of European destinations, whilst Glasgow and Edinburgh airports provide a wider range of domestic, European and international flights.
