Features and description
- Freehold
Situated on the outskirts of Blackwaterfoot on the Isle of Arran, Greenhill is a former farmhouse dating back to the 1800s, offering a fantastic home with three/four bedrooms, multiple reception areas, a kitchen, and two bathrooms, plus generous gardens and a large private driveway. The home enjoys some lovely original features and now offers an exciting opportunity for modernisation and upgrades, as well as the attached byre/workshop which also provides tremendous potential for conversion by the new owner (STPP). Furthermore, the house boasts an elevated position with panoramic views across the Shiskine Valley and towards the coast at Blackwaterfoot.
An airy entrance hall (with built-in under-stair storage) welcomes you into the home and flows into a living room on your left. Here, earthy-toned decor is paired with a warm wood floor and a feature fireplace surround with a multi-fuel stove creates a cosy atmosphere and a focal point around which configurations of lounge furniture can be arranged. The dual-aspect reception room enjoys wonderful open views and represents an ideal space for relaxing as a family. Adjoined to this room is a versatile space that could lend itself to a variety of uses, such as a children's playroom, a home office, or a bedroom. Across the hall, a dining room (also with a warming stove) offers the perfect setting for family meals and formal entertaining with guests, with convenient direct access to the kitchen. In the kitchen, classically styled cabinets are accompanied by spacious worktops, and provision is made for a selection of freestanding and undercounter appliances, whilst large cupboards provide useful hidden storage and a door leads out to the garden. Completing the ground-floor accommodation is a bathroom comprised of a bath with an overhead shower and a glazed screen, a pedestal basin, and a WC.
On the first floor, a landing, with space for a study area/reading nook, leads to the remaining three bedrooms, all offering plenty of space for furniture and boasting tranquil open views. The largest bedroom has an en-suite shower room with access to storage. The home is kept warm by electric storage heaters.
Externally, owing to the home's large plot of approximately half an acre, it enjoys generous and well-maintained gardens, with spacious, neat lawns, mature trees, shrubs, and hedges, patio seating areas, raised beds, and a number of sheds/stores. The large adjoining workshop could be converted into additional living accommodation by the new owner, subject to planning permission. Excellent private parking is provided by a multi-car driveway.
