Farmhouse for sale in Stonefield Farmhouse And Stonefield Cottage, King's Cross, By Whiting Bay, Isle Of Arran, North Ayrshire KA27

Situated close to Lamlash and Whiting Bay, with views towards The Holy Isle, this traditional three-bedroom farmhouse is attached by a one-bedroom cottage, with separate deeds but sold as one. The properties sit on nearly an acre of grounds with a south-facing garden, excellent private parking, and right-of-way access from the main road via a track. The farmhouse interiors have been partially renovated yet still offer opportunities for personalisation, with a blank canvas of neutral decor requiring some finishing touches. The attached store rooms are also ripe for further development. (STPP)

Both properties benefit from electric heating and full double glazing. Externally, the generous grounds boast private parking for up to four vehicles, a neatly lawned garden that promises idyllic seclusion with south-facing coastal views, and additional space for a small paddock. If the new owner chooses to sell or rent out the cottage, it would be possible (subject to planning consent) to create a private road access and garden.

Charming Traditional Farmhouse

The main residence is entered via a porch and hall that also connects to the neighbouring cottage. Interconnected and south-facing, the living accommodation leading off the hall comprises a lounge, snug/family room, a dining room, and a breakfasting kitchen with an oil-fired Aga (not checked). Both the lounge and snug/family room have the option to add log burning stoves and the new owner will have the opportunity to complete the refurbishment, adding personal touches. Also on the ground level is a bright, modern bathroom (with shower-over-bath) and the practical features of a boot room (with a WC) and a pantry, both accessed via a rear porch with external access, and two large adjoining stores, with one opening externally. The home's three dormer-fronted bedrooms are located on the first floor and include two rooms with ample space for double beds and a smaller room or bright home study.

Attached Single-Storey Cottage

The cottage is ideal for guests or as an income stream, and presented in move-in condition. Inside, an entrance hall leads to a bedroom, a south-facing living room with a homely log burner, and a bright kitchen offering access to a sky-lit wet room as well as the rear outside.

Area

Whiting Bay is located on the south-east corner of the island and overlooks the Firth of Clyde, with views to the very southern point of Scotland. The village provides a newsagent, post office, pharmacy, two general food stores, cafe, hardware store and a farm shop. There is a craft outlet and art gallery, as well as a picturesque 18-hole golf course. Primary schooling is available in the village and secondary schooling is found at the High School in Lamlash. The surrounding area provides some of Arran's most scenic walks, not only along the shoreline, but also through the forest to Glenashdale Falls. The Isle of Arran, approximately 167 square miles in area, is sometimes referred to as 'Scotland in miniature', as it is divided into highland and lowland areas by the Highland Boundary Fault. The island is a popular destination for geologists, due to the substantial volcanic activity around 16 million years ago in the Tertiary period. There are many stone circles and standing stones dating from Neolithic times, including those on Machrie Moor and the Giants Graves above Whiting Bay. Arran is approximately 60 miles in circumference and has some of the finest scenery in Scotland, with excellent walking, rambling and sea and trout fishing. Tourist attractions include Arran Aromatics, Arran Heritage Museum, Lochranza & Lagg Distilleries and Brodick Castle.
