This could be the best house for sale Yett!

-

No apologies this week for both featured properties being in the deep south of Ayrshire.

The main feature is from the adjoining Duisk Valley, but this astonishin­g house is firmly in the river valley of the Stinchar.

Next to the village church in Colmonell, “The Yett” has one of the prettiest facades in the history of house building.

Both elegant and welcoming, the front features crests dating to 1596 and 1795, likely to be of Kennedy clan origin.

The Yett is off the Main Street and sits squarely up against the pavement.

But out back is three quarters of an acre of wooded grounds, packed with wild garlic and spring bulbs.

Galloway and Ayrshire Properties seek offers of around £ 175,000 for this piece of history.

Inside retains some of the old built- in cabinets and cupboards.

The layout is straightfo­rward, with a dining room and living room in the bays looking out front.

At the back is a morning room which leads to the kitchen extension, while a study leads to a garden room.

Then it’s up a lovely staircase to the four bedrooms and family bathroom with separate shower.

The pièce de résistance is the 6ft 6in square box room with the lovely arched window above the front door.

A perfect place to watch village life go by.
