A magnificent stone-built Victorian country home of 1873, set in around five acres of woodland, garden and paddock adjacent to Ayrshire's historic Coodham Estate, with generous level accommodation, a stable block and outbuildings, offered to the market for the first time in some fifty years.
Property Description
Whitehill of Coodham sits adjacent to the historic Coodham Estate, one of the most private and
characterful settings in this part of Ayrshire. The house is wrapped in its own mature woodland
and parkland, with Simon's Burn and the estate's historic lakeside grounds close by, the kind of
landscape that has drawn people to Coodham for generations.
For all its seclusion, the house is well placed. Symington and the surrounding villages cover the day-to-day, with Kilmarnock, Troon, Prestwick and Ayr within easy reach for shopping, schools
and the coast. Ayrshire's championship golf is on the doorstep, Royal Troon and Prestwick among the courses nearby. Glasgow Prestwick Airport is a short drive, and the road and rail network gives fast links north to Glasgow and along the Ayrshire coast.
The property dates from 1873 and comes to the market for the first time in around fifty years, a rare chance to take on a house of this character and history. It is approached through gated auto entry and a long driveway lit by decorative lighting, which sets the tone well before the house comes into view. Inside, the original craftsmanship speaks first. Exceptional woodwork and panelling run throughout, giving the interior a warmth and solidity that is increasingly hard to find. The accommodation is arranged entirely on the level, a genuine rarity in a country home of this age and scale.
At the heart of the house is a gorgeous country kitchen that looks out over the grounds, with an adjoining sun room that makes the most of the outlook. The feature drawing room is the other principal reception, extending into a conservatory and out to the garden grounds beyond. A games room with a full-size snooker table completes the entertaining space. There are four large bedrooms, the principal with its own en suite.
The grounds run to approximately five acres, with a paddock immediately behind the house, along with woodland and mature garden grounds. The equestrian facilities are ready to use, with a stable block of three boxes and a tack room, and there is a range of further outbuildings including a garage and potting shed.
