Blackbush Kennels, a Category C listed cottage dating back to the 1800s, is set in a secluded area on the outskirts of the charming conservation village of Ochiltree. This property presents an excellent opportunity for renovation and investment, featuring a blend of period charm and character. The spacious layout extends across two floors, with flexible living areas that could easily be transformed into a contemporary family home or retained as part of its current use as a boarding kennel business.
The ground floor boasts a comfortable living room with original features such as ornate cornicing and a wood-burning stove, flowing seamlessly into a dining room space. Adjacent is the kitchen equipped with essential appliances and porcelain tiled flooring. Additionally, there's a conservatory that captures stunning countryside views and enhances the living space further.
Upstairs, you will find four bedrooms including a master suite with fitted wardrobes; however, modernization could elevate this accommodation significantly. A well-appointed bathroom rounds out this level. The property also comes with ancillary facilities such as shower rooms and utility spaces that offer potential for reconfiguration.
Externally, the garden provides panoramic views over lush landscapes and includes an enclosed paddock area designed previously for exercise purposes related to the kennel business.
While currently utilized as reputable boarding kennels licensed for 30 units, converting this property to suit personal or familial needs offers limitless potential. There’s ample opportunity for redevelopment and enhancement throughout, making it an ideal project for someone looking to invest in property in Scotland's picturesque Ayrshire region.
