West Burnhead Farm is a traditional Ayrshire farm attractively situated in unspoilt open countryside about 3 miles from Galston, East Ayrshire. Enjoying a peaceful private position, West Burnhead Farm offers huge potential for a purchaser interested in restoring a fine house in unspoilt open countryside. The farmhouse requires modernisation and refurbishment which offers considerable scope for development subject to obtaining the appropriate planning consents.
Galston has both primary and secondary schooling and a popular leisure centre. Private schooling is available at Wellington in Ayr and Belmont, Newton Mearns (18 miles). Kilmarnock has a wider range of amenities including restaurants, hospital, cinema and sports complex. Silverburn Shopping Centre is some 20 miles distant. Glasgow City Centre is about 25 miles distant, with a regular train service available to Glasgow from Kilmarnock (8 miles) and Prestwick Airport with regular international flights is about 16 miles distant.
The surrounding rolling countryside of the Irvine Valley offers a network of country lanes, ideal for walking, cycling and hacking from West Burnhead Farm. There are several local walks in the area including the Cessnock Walk which strolls through attractive ancient woodlands which straddle the Burn Anne. The popular Burn Anne Walk is a pleasant 5 mile circuit starting from Barr Castle. The privately owned Loudoun Gowf Club is by Newmilns, about 3.5 miles and the world class “19” hole golf course designed by Colin Montgomerie at Rowallan Castle, Kilmaurs (12 miles).
The traditional farmhouse is constructed of stone under a slate roof on one and a half storeys. Whilst the farmhouse requires a comprehensive schedule of renovation it affords the next custodians the opportunity to create an excellent home that could be reconfigured or extended pending the relevant planning consents being obtained. Its present accommodation includes a large kitchen/diner, sitting room with raised / separate dining room, bathroom, w.c. and living room on the ground floor, with 3 bedrooms on the first floor. The open fire and wood burning stove have not been used for some time.
Adjoining the house are former traditional farm buildings.
The farmhouse stands in about 3.52 acres in total including a useful 1.48 acre paddock with woodland to the west of the house. There are fine views to the south over rolling Ayrshire countryside.
