Little cottage hides a luxury secret inside

-

On the outside it just looks like a typical old farm cottage, common of many in the west.

Step inside and it is a world away from the original use as a humble farm hand’s dwelling and it has been extended several times.

Stoneyfiel­d Cottage is a stone semi, but has its own driveway at the back of the property.

It sits a large field away from the Kirkmichae­l Road and down a farm track, so perfect peace and quiet to enjoy the sounds of the countrysid­e.

The agents – appropriat­ely enough called Stonefield – say: “The property has undergone a painstakin­g program of modernisat­ion and renovation by the current owners to form a unique spacious family home oozing character and quality from top to bottom.”

You can reach it either via Maybole or taking the Hogg’s Corner cut off to Kirkmichae­l.

Old internal walls have been taken out to provide a large open- plan layout of kitchen and family room, dining hall then lounge.

The lounge has a feature fire place and a wood burner. French doors from the 18- foot long dining area flood the room with light.

The glorious 27- foot kitchen has a fire- engine red range and a plethora of lovely mixed units including wine rack and a specific frame for a double- doored fridge freezer. The smallish garden is largely to lawn, with a “rich variety” of mature plants and shrubs as well as an outbuildin­g.

There is also a sunny raised timber deck ideal for outdoor entertaini­ng and watching the sun go down. One of the two bedrooms is ensuite. The family bathroom is oversize at 12 feet square and has a separate shower.

Ayr agents Stonefield are seeking offers over £ 155,000, for viewing call 01292 501777.
