DESCRIPTION
Belston Farm comprises a traditional Ayrshire Farmhouse and steading with paddocks and equestrian facilities. The Farmhouse itself is built of brick and stone under a pitched slate roof with dormer windows and has been modernised and refurbished in recent times to form a comfortable family house with 2 reception rooms, fitted kitchen, conservatory, 4 bedrooms and bathroom. The rooms are a good size and the house is light and spacious throughout. The House has mains gas central heating, is fully double glazed and is in excellent condition.
The House is detached and stands in the centre of a gravelled courtyard. Around the perimeter of this courtyard are extensive traditional stone and slate outbuildings which offer considerable scope for development into further accommodation or separate residential units subject to obtaining all necessary consents. Planning permission presently exists for conversion of one building to self-catering houses.
In addition there are 2 small paddocks, a sand arena, and an excellent lockable general purpose store.
