* NEW to Market - Available to View Now * Simply charming, the picturesque view from the gates, winding up the driveway, adjacent the cottage style gardens with a delightful little bridge over the burn …nestling beyond is “Rowan Burn”, a very comfortable and much loved home to its owners over many years. A cottage style Detached Bungalow, enjoying favoured locale, a short walk from the sandy beachfront of Barassie (noting Barassie Train Station is adjacent to the property). Internally the property is attractively presented, featuring 6 Main Apartments over 2 levels.
The private gardens deserve particular mention, providing a picturesque backdrop and space to potter/relax. The sweeping monobloc driveway provides generous off-street parking whilst also leading to a detached garage.
The accommodation comprises, entrance vestibule onto the reception hall, dining room to the front with separate lounge positioned behind (can be accessed via “French style” connecting doors), a door from the lounge open onto a useful living room which overlooks the rear gardens, the kitchen is centrally positioned to the rear with access from here to the conservatory which again overlooks the rear gardens, a double bedroom (No 3) is located to the front with the main bathroom adjacent (shower cubicle instead of bath), an additional hall/study area to the rear features the staircase which leads to the upper level where 2 further spacious bedrooms are provided (Nos 1 & 2).
The specification includes gas central heating & double glazing. EPC – D. The aforementioned gated private driveway is attractively laid out in monobloc, providing private parking for several vehicles whilst a detached single garage provides secure parking/storage. The property is set amidst charming mature private gardens with mature trees, shrubs, flower beds, front & rear lawned areas etc.
Troon, on Ayrshire's sweeping coastline, is a highly favoured "Seaside Town" with its sweeping seafront/promenade, also notable for its world renowned golf course (with the recent Open Golf Tournament having been played at Royal Troon Golf Course), also featuring its own bustling marina. Naturally Troon is of broad appeal, popular with locals and commuters alike, Glasgow Buyers particularly favouring its wonderful seafront location, 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.

* NEW to Market - Available to View Now * A wonderful opportunity for those yearning to immerse themselves in “Country Living”, this Charming Detached Cottage Style Bungalow enjoys a truly picturesque setting with countryside unfolding in all directions. “Little Camlarg” was originally the site of the former Shepherd’s Cottage for Craigengillan Estate, replaced circa 1970’s with the Cottage Style Bungalow that awaits its lucky new owner.
Entering through its private driveway the Cottage nestles almost magically with a babbling burn curving around the outer edges of its delightful partially wooded main gardens, a bridge beckoning one to cross by vehicle or foot …prepare to utter the word… “Wow” …because it is. Beyond the cottage and main garden (circa 2 acres), an additional circa 14 acres of rough grazing/land invites one to ponder their options or simply enjoy the additional space/extended views that it provides, noting that a separate/private access is also available to the additional land (at the far end, off the main road).
Little Camlarg is approx' 1 mile east on the B741 from Dalmellington Village which is part of the renowned “Dark Sky Park” which provides a dazzling starscape on clear nights that town/city dwellers never experience. Turn right (signposted) into the shared driveway, pass a Detached Bungalow at driveway entrance), travel a short distance to be met by a farm gate through which one enters the property.
The current owners have upgraded the property during their period of ownership and it is fair to say that they are very reluctant sellers, only moving to accommodate the needs of their daughter.
The comfortable accommodation which enjoys panoramic views comprises, reception hall, spacious lounge with patio doors, open-plan kitchen adjacent, 3 bedrooms and a modern bathroom. The specification includes both central heating (renewed & powered from the multi-fuel fire, plus back-up immersion heater) & double glazing. EPC – D. There is a private septic tank within the boundaries of the property (renewed), mains water & electricity are provided. There is an abundance of parking space within the garden grounds.
To discuss your interest in this particular property please contact Graeme Lumsden, our Director/Valuer, who is handling this particular sale – 01292 283606.

“ Having marketed & sold a myriad of properties over my 35 Years as an estate agent there is a category of property which one will never see professionally mentioned
…these are properties that make most potential buyers utter the word – Wow!
…whether it is the super luxury spec’, huge size, amazing location, spectacular views etc’
…there are also the subtle properties where the location just makes you go …Wow
Little Camlarg… simply Wow! What a lucky buyer will surely say, especially the day they arrive with the keys proudly in their hands, because they bought it! “

* NEW to Market - Available to View * Enjoying favoured locale, this ever popular stone fronted Detached Bungalow will be of immense interest to clients seeking a much larger garden, which in this case is concealed to the rear. A comfortable home for over 30 years to its current owners, the splendid gardens can easily accommodate a range of interests, from families seeking safe outdoor space, the keen gardener wishing to expand their floral artistry or add a productive veg/fruit area, those yearning to add a summer house/workshop will welcome the extra space. Clearly the opportunity also exists to extend the property further (subject to the required planning permission etc) whilst not impacting such a large garden area …so many ideas to consider.
Conveniently positioned for Ayr Town Centre, local amenities including shopping & public transport whilst local schools are also easily accessible. A short journey takes one to the A77 which provides links north & south.
The property features on-the-level accommodation which has been extended already to the rear whilst the attic area features floored/lined additional storage. In particular comprising, entrance vestibule onto the reception hall, lounge to the front which could be used as a 3rd bedroom if required, extended family/dining room privately situated to the rear with pleasing garden views/access via patio doors, centrally positioned “Galley” style kitchen with breakfasting room beyond and further utility storage thereafter, 2 bedrooms (to the front & rear respectively – Nos 1 & 2) with bedroom No1 featuring a small en-suite. What is now a useful study had been the original bathroom however the current owners elected to create a much larger bathroom by taking some space from the rear family/dining room.
The specification includes both gas central heating and double glazing. EPC – D. Neatly maintained private gardens are located to the front & rear, noting the very substantial rear gardens. A private driveway provides off-street parking, this leading to the rear with a paved vehicular turning space available. On-street parking is also available.
Graeme Lumsden, Director/Valuer of BLACK HAY Estate Agents comments…
“ After 35 years working in the property industry across Scotland, Bungalows have remained a firm favourite for homebuyers …today it’s not just retired/semi retired buyers that want a bungalow as their final home, younger buyers are switching away from tightly packed modern homes, appreciating the flexibility of a bungalow and the opportunities that are often available to extend.
This is an exciting opportunity with its secret garden, one that a New Homes Builder today would almost refuse to allocate to just one house. If they wish… the successful purchasers will have the opportunity to extend their indoor lifestyle outdoors, without running out of space.
One can just imagine what can be created in such a wonderful outdoor space. ”
