Historically it has been through 2 World Wars with its now disused aircraft runway serving the military whilst the hotel served for a period as a hospital. Post-war it was revitalised with golf course redesigns and a series of new owners evolving the resort into the Trump Turnberry Resort that we see today ...yet it retains the much loved character from its foundation in the early 1900's.

Enjoying favoured setting, amidst picturesque landscaped gardens, within the secluded Shanter Wynd Residential Development which comprises a small number of luxury style detached homes attractively laid out on the former “Old Cambusdoon Cricket Ground” midway between historic Alloway Village & Brig O’ Doon.
This most appealing Luxury Home features prized 9 Main Apartment Accommodation, thoughtfully laid out over 2 levels.

The formal apartments comprise an impressive lounge with patio doors to garden, dining room – both to the rear, useful study (alternative 6th bedroom if required or small tv room etc), spacious/well equipped breakfasting kitchen with living/family room (patio doors to garden), a useful “downstairs wc is featured off the reception hall whilst there is integral access to the double garage & utility room.

Graeme Lumsden, Estate Agency Director/Valuer at BLACK HAY comments – “ The perception of a Luxury Home can appear to be easily satisfied by those 2 words - Luxury Home. In reality, to the discerning buyer, luxury means much more than just the word.
With 35 Years in the property industry I know that Cala Homes are still highly regarded as a Builder of Luxury/High Quality Homes. No 1 Shanter Wynd has been owned from new by its current owners, featuring Cala’s original luxury specification. Today’s specification will undoubtedly be different however No 1 retains its rare sizeable accommodation, secluded setting, prestigious address …and of course it’s still a Cala Home …one can imagine if it was being built today ...what sale price would Cala set?
In my view, quite simply an exceptionally rare opportunity to acquire a fabulous Detached Luxury Home.”

Graeme Lumsden, our Estate Agency Director at BLACK HAY Estate Agents, comments…
“Arriving outside The NEUK ….pause for a moment. This striking home appears to have emerged organically from the soil, flanked either side by its strong yet subtle buttress walls, centrally your eye is drawn to the 7 frame oriel window detail, then upwards from the impressive roofline the chimneys rise dramatically emphasising that this is a very special home …one which the successful purchaser will have the joy of owning.
I’ve been very lucky over my 30+ years in the estate agency industry to sell thousands of homes, a handful being very special, and not always because of their high value or location/specification etc ….indeed, for me, it is the simplicity of a home which can be its strongest asset.
This historically noteworthy home relied on its original owner who over a century ago was blessed with a substantial purse to finance the construction of this unique home, yet without the selection of its then relatively young architect Alexander Caldwell Thomson (1873 to 1925) who arrived from Glasgow to open his own architectural practice in Ayr, The NEUK could have simply been another Bungalow style home.
As luck would have it Thomson’s architectural studies/career developed through the period of “The Glasgow Style”, led by the celebrated Charles Rennie Mackintosh, responsible for some of Scotland’s most iconic buildings of that remarkable period when a new style of modern architecture was being driven by Mackintosh and his close associates. The style was striking, because it was not overladen with excessive detail. At the core of this new architectural movement was an organic free flowing style which allowed architectural details that could have become over complicated to simply flow with the design, taking the eye on a natural journey of detail notable for its simplicity.
Visiting The NEUK one can see and feel the influence of that powerful yet short period of Glasgow Style which Mackintosh led, and which undoubtedly influenced the young Alexander Caldwell Thomson during his time studying at Glasgow School of Art. Take a visual tour of Glasgow including its world famous School of Art (now very sadly damaged by 2 fires), The Willow Tea Rooms (now Mackintosh at The Willow), House for an Art Lover or to The Hill House in Helensburgh, then consider The NEUK, enjoy the subtle details which Thomson designed, reflecting many of those details for which those iconic Mackintosh Designed Buildings are widely admired.
In my view, The NEUK undoubtedly displays many of Charles Rennie Mackintosh’s iconic architectural design details however it is Alexander Caldwell Thomson who, as in life, took those influences from his early studies/career and created his signature details at The NEUK which now serves as a tribute to both Mackintosh and the appreciation that Thomson had for the enduring Glasgow Style.
As is often the case of noteworthy homes, each owner is only a ”custodian” during their period of ownership, however what a pleasurable way to serve your role as custodian – owning & living in The NEUK. It will be a lucky buyer indeed that is handed the keys from the current owners.”
The Virtual Tour & Digital Brochure/Floorplan will be available to view shortly on our website - blackhay.co.uk
Interested parties are advised to contact their Solicitor to lodge a Formal Note of Interest although initial enquiries are welcome direct to BLACK HAY, please contact our Estate Agency Director/Valuer Graeme Lumsden (who is handling this particular property sale) on 01292 283606 or email gpl@blackhay.co.uk
The most appealing accommodation is featured over 2 levels, comprising on ground floor, welcoming reception hall, stunning formal lounge, impressive dining room, a fabulous/substantial extension styled open-plan as a family/living/breakfasting room with “snug” area, split-level kitchen (integrated appliances), bedroom No 1 with en-suite shower room/wc, bedroom No 2 featuring fitted dressing room & en-suite shower room/wc, useful study/alternative 5th bedroom. A central hallway features a striking staircase (useful guests wc understair) which rises to a gallery style upper hallway off which the “master” bedroom (No 3) is located together with a 4th bedroom which is currently utilised as a dressing room, the main bathroom (4 piece with small sauna) is also on the upper level.
Gas central heating & double glazing are featured. EPC - C. During their long period of ownership the current owners have been careful to retain the rich character of this unique home, whilst investing both personally & financially enhancing The NEUK - for example, full re-roofing, the professional design/build of the fabulous extension & the design/build of a substantial detached double garage block with studio style accommodation above.
In addition new fitments/further improvements have been made by the owners.
Hard-standing parking to the front is by way of a monobloc driveway (sliding gate) within the landscaped gardens, whilst to the left twin remote control doors lead through a secure carport & garage, in-turn a monobloc driveway across the rear landscaped gardens to the detached double garage (heated, again remote control doors). The private gardens are landscaped/picturesque incorporating a luxuriously styled “Barbecue House”.
Internal period/character features believed to date back to the original build include impressive fireplaces, ironmongery, stunning staircase & galleried upper hallway, decorative timberwork, whilst externally the porthole windows, oriel window, chimneys, buttress walls etc are also believed to date back to the original build.
Quite simply - The NEUK is a wonderful example of an early 20th century home which reflects classic details of the iconic “Glasgow Style” made famous by the celebrated Charles Rennie Mackintosh - The Glasgow Style displaying elements of the decorative Art Nouveau period.

A very comfortable home to its current owner since the mid 1950’s, noting that during their ownership the property was a combination of Doctor’s Surgery and private home. Although a much loved home over the years it is fair to say that it does now need modernisation (noting that the property is offered For Sale "Sold as Seen"). However, for the successful purchaser it is a wonderful opportunity to secure a unique property with real potential to create a spectacular seafront home.
Set amidst a larger plot/gardens, with tarmacadam “horseshoe” style driveway to the front (facing South Beach road) whilst to the rear larger size lawned gardens, enclosed with stone boundary wall and gate to rear leading to the beachfront. The extended rear garden area provides excellent scope to develop the property further, subject to required planning permission etc.

On-street parking is also available. The larger lawned rear gardens are enclosed with a period stone boundary wall for privacy whilst a rear gate allows easy access to the beach/seafront.
Firbrae occupies a truly favoured position within highly regarded South Beach, Troon, a most desirable "Seaside Town" with its own marina, on Ayrshire's sweeping coastline, itself notable for its world renowned golf courses. Troon is of broad appeal, popular with locals and commuters alike, Glasgow Buyers particularly favouring its wonderful seafront location whilst being only approx' 35 minutes commute by car from Glasgow City Centre (both train & bus services aid those commuting) whilst Edinburgh/East Coast Buyers favour the better weather of Troon on the West Coast.
Graeme Lumsden, Director/Valuer of BLACK HAY Estate Agents comments…
“After nearly 4 decades in the property industry I still marvel at the sheer joy of owning a seafront home.
I live in the countryside and enjoy the seasons changing around me however in my heart it is a seafront home with its seascape changing by the minute that is my dream home and indeed the dream home of so many.
Firbrae has clearly been a much loved family home, of substantial proportion (circa 2800 sq ft) with an abundance of character & charm …enjoying a truly sought after beach/seafront location.
Undoubtedly the successful purchaser will have to spend a considerable sum to deliver their very special Dream Home however the end result will easily justify the hard work/financial commitment …when one settles down knowing that the beach/seafront is indeed literally a stone’s throw away, instead of loading up your car to go to the beach, it’s there every day when you wake up. “

Graeme Lumsden, Estate Agency Director/Valuer at BLACK HAY comments -
" In my view the allure of a seafront home and its ever changing sea views remains unmatched. After 35 years in the property industry my heart still skips a beat when I arrive at a seafront home and catch sight of the sea views which the owners can sometimes grow familiar with ...yet, perhaps with my family connection to the Mull of Kintyre I yearn to live by-the-sea ...many an hour immersed in the changing seascape ...and when you need to actually feel/breathe the sea at Cladach ...unlock the gate at the end of the garden and literally a pebble's throw away... the sand dunes beckon, and you are there ...walking the beach, whatever the weather ...water rippling or white-horses racing ashore on stormy days.
I live in the country with wonderful views, cows with their inquisitive heads looking over the hedges and a red squirrel that visits most days ...yet, what would I give for a home by-the-sea? The successful buyer of Cladach will, in my humble opinion ...be living their dream (and mine!) "

Graeme Lumsden, Director/Value of BLACK HAY Estate Agents comments…
“ Having sold thousands of homes over my 38 years within the property industry, I never underestimate the value of space, in particular the space around your home …noting that typical New Home Developments (as seen nearby) often display properties shoe-horned together as builders seek to maximise their profit versus the price paid for the land & building costs.
Refreshingly, Teallach enjoys its own space, nestling amidst its larger private gardens. It will be of particular appeal to those clients seeking a larger Modern Detached Home which can accommodate an existing/growing family or offer flexible space in which to entertain/work from home. In addition, its flexible layout allows one to re-configure the existing layout whilst the existing double garage or space to the rear offer further development/expansion potential (subject to required planning permission etc).
In my view Teallach is a home for now and the future …you won’t grow tired of having space in which to live. ”

Private gardens are featured to the front & rear, neatly presented/landscaped with the rear screened for privacy providing a safe/enclosed child-friendly play area or outdoor space in which to relax on better weather days. The private driveway provides dual off-street parking whilst also leading to a much-valued integral double garage which provides secure parking/storage.
In our view, genuinely desirable… of real appeal to those seeking a larger Modern Luxury Home able to accommodate an existing or growing family …yet not one which is “shoe-horned” along with repetitively styled homes which unimaginative builders seem happy to build. This particular Bryant Homes development combines a sense of more space with a mix of property styles which make it a much more pleasing development in which to live.

* NEW to Market - Available to View Soon * A unique Detached Luxury Home. Following a fire (lightning strike), the original Miller Home which the owner had purchased brand new was demolished, however the good news was the owner’s profession (a building surveyor/property consultant) which resulted in the bespoke New Build Home which now occupies the original site.
Arguably this New Property has a specification/build quality which exceeds the previous property (albeit the exterior style matches surrounding properties as this was a planning condition of the rebuild), the owner’s attention to both the construction details and fittings is worthy of particular mention whilst the bespoke extension to the rear delivers a wonderful extended family space which is undoubtedly the heart of this very desirable home ….the lead detailed roof on the extension is perhaps the “signature” of the owner having delivered a unique home which he has enjoyed and will no doubt be enjoyed by the successful purchaser.
