Unique development set round a stunning courtyard comprising four individual residential properties with the potential for a further two as well as two separate building plots.
This immediately impressive development enjoys a stunning setting with land stretching to the Endrick Water and enjoying views towards the Campsies. Over recent years Ballochruin Farm has traded as a successful bed and breakfast with three holiday rental cottages, although at present all properties are currently let on longer terms.
Ballochruin Farm itself comprises a large entrance hall with direct access to an inner hall accessing the formal dining room, impressive large dining kitchen which in turn is open plan to a large living space. To the right of the main entrance hall is a separate inner hall where there is access to a formal drawing room and a short flight of stairs leading to two bedrooms, both enjoying en-suite facilities. These rooms were set up to be used as bed and breakfast facilities. From the main large living area adjacent to the dining kitchen, a short flight of stairs provide access to a large upper landing which could serve as a family room. From here there are three further bedrooms and family bathroom, the larger master bedroom enjoys en suite facilities. On the lower level to the rear of this large living space there is also a short hallway providing access to a large utility room with boiler room, large study which could serve as an additional bedroom as well as additional cloakroom with a two piece suite.
Adjacent to the main farm house there are two terraced villas, both finished to a very high level and both providing accommodation of large open plan living space, open plan to a fully fitted kitchen, to the rear of the living space there is access to an inner hallway where there is a cloakroom providing a two piece suite and stairs leading to the upper landing. From the upper landing both these properties provide two double bedrooms both with en-suite facilities. Again these have over the years been let out as holiday rentals and most recently longer term.
The fourth property within the development is the impressive barn property. This impressive conversion offers particularly spacious accommodation over two levels and comprises a large reception hall providing access to spacious living space, bedroom with en-suite facilities, cloakroom and stairs to the upper landing. The large open plan living space comprises a dining kitchen with an extensive range of units and ample space for a large dining table and chairs. This area is open plan to the impressive large living space with feature vaulted ceiling and patio doors accessing the private garden area. On the upper landing there are two particularly spacious double bedrooms both enjoying en-suite facilities. Also set within this courtyard is a large byre with commercial unit presently let out to a local business, there is currently a planning application to convert this large barn into two separate three bedroom dwelling houses.
Presently this development has a current turnover in the region of £40,000 per annum, this could easily be increased to figures between £80,000 and £100,000 by reverting to holiday lets and the bed and breakfast accommodation within the main farm house.
Externally the property has access to various barns, large grounds from the main farm house extending to over 8 acres and bounding with the Endrick Water.
