Glenshamrock is situated in a secluded and private location in scenic rural Ayrshire within easy reach of Glasgow and the central belt but within a short distance of the local settlement of Auchinleck, East Ayrshire. The small town has a good range of local facilities which include supermarket, hotel, butchers and bakers. There is a railway station with connections to Glasgow, Kilmarnock and Ayr. The new Barony Campus in Cumnock (about 3 miles) opened in 2020 incorporates both primary and secondary schooling. It has a modern sports centre and outdoor facilities providing enhanced leisure and recreational facilities to the local community. There is a private school, Wellington in the county town of Ayr (about 15 miles). Ayr has a variety of excellent shops and supermarkets, out of town retail park, leisure facilities including theatre and cinema along with a stunning beach. There are many riding and walking opportunities to be found in the local area.
Auchinleck Estate is nearby and there is a popular coffee and gift shop (Boswell’s Coach House) within the estate grounds along with enjoyable riverside walks. Auchinleck Mansion House, was built by Lord Auchinleck, James Boswell in the late 1700s. Dumfries House Estate also close by is arguably one of Britain’s most beautiful stately homes with an outstanding collection of 18th century furniture, beautiful walled garden and coffee house.
Glenshamrock Farm is a most attractive and substantial farmhouse constructed in the nineteenth century of stone on two storeys under a pitched slate roof. It is approached from the minor public road via its own private drive to a u-shaped gravelled courtyard enclosed by the house and its two wings which has an extensive parking area. The house has been extended into one wing with the recent addition of a superb one bedroom annex with living room and beautiful full height windows overlooking the extensive patio and lawns.
The other wing of the house contains a workshop and garages with an electric door in the gable end. To the rear of the courtyard are 3 substantial former farm buildings with excellent stables and storage. The land extends to approximately 25.25 acres including newly created turnout paddocks enclosed by post and rail fencing. As a result Glenshamrock is well suited for equestrian use. The property is surrounded by mature coniferous woodland (in other ownership) affording Glenshamrock complete privacy.
With spacious and versatile accommodation, the house has a large entrance hall/utility room with fitted units and sink, with access to the annex and the impressive kitchen/living/dining room with gas stove and feature stone wall. This has an oil fired Aga fitted farmhouse style cream units with terracotta tiled floor, vaulted beamed ceiling and velux skylights, and superb full height windows opening directly onto the terrace to two elevations. A passageway leads to the main part of the house with a study (with extensive fitted shelving), a shower room with large walk-in shower, cosy sitting room with wood burning stove and French windows leading to the garden, drawing room and laundry room (with fitted units and sink).
On the first floor the landing with built in wardrobe provides access to 5 bedrooms and a bathroom, which also leads to the principal bedroom.
There is access from the drawing room into the workshop, and log store, which is open to the garaging (with electric roller door) in the remaining section of the wing.
The annex, reached from the entrance hall is a beautifully converted section of the house with a living room overlooking the patio through full height windows. It has bespoke built-in book shelving and a spiral staircase with frameless glass balustrade to a gallery which could be used as an office/reading area or sleeping platform. There is a generous double sized bedroom and en suite shower room with walk-in shower and fitted bathroom furniture.
Ground Floor: Entrance Hall/Utility, Annexe Living Room, Bedroom, En suite Shower Room. Kitchen/Dining/Living Room. Sitting Room. Study. Shower Room. Drawing Room. Laundry Room.
First Floor: 5 Bedrooms. Bathroom.
The gardens and grounds surround the house, mostly lawns bounded by hedging with a delightful stone flagged patio filled with summer flower beds. There is a large gravelled sweep courtyard to the rear of the farmhouse with extensive private parking for numerous vehicles.
The outbuildings comprise:
General Purpose Shed: About 21m x 10m

The former mine workings in the field to the east of the drive may have potential for a house plot, subject to planning permission and consents being obtained.

Continue to the roundabout and turn left onto the B705 (Market Road) and continue out of the village.
