The property has recently received planning permission for conversion into a residential space from an existing agricultural shed that once served as the Barrhill Cattle Market—highlighting its historical significance in the local cattle industry. Proposed renovations include retaining the structure's brickwork while introducing modern elements through cedar cladding, UPVC windows and doors, along with rainwater goods.
Extending over approximately 2.81 acres, this site includes ample parking space and garden grounds along with a 2.26-acre paddock. The proposed accommodation consists of three bedrooms (including one en suite), an open-plan kitchen/living/dining area, utility room, bathroom, porch, and plant room—all designed to cater to contemporary living needs.
The property is well-served by electricity and water connections located nearby. Additionally, there are no flooding risks associated with this site based on current flood maps.
Local authorities remain engaged in discussions about potential developments in the vicinity; however, any future energy projects are not expected to impact views from this plot significantly. This location combines renovation potential with investment opportunities due to its historical context and desirable setting within South Ayrshire's scenic landscape.
