Riverside, Hollybush, Ayr

A beautifully positioned four-bedroom home in a peaceful rural setting, with generous family accommodation, a large private garden and the River Doon running along the boundary – complete with fishing rights.

Tucked away at the end of a private road within the small hamlet of Skeldon, Riverside Cottage is a home where the setting is every bit as special as the property itself.

Originally the village hall serving nearby Skeldon Mill, the traditional stone building has been extended and renovated over the years to create a substantial and characterful family home, with around 1,600 sq ft of accommodation and a wonderfully flexible layout.

At the heart of the property is the large open-plan kitchen and dining area, providing plenty of room for everyday family life and entertaining. Alongside this is a particularly spacious living room, with a log-burning stove creating a natural focal point and adding to the cosy country feel of the home.

From the living room, the accommodation flows into the conservatory, which has been fitted with thermal insulation panels to the roof, helping to make this a much more usable space throughout the year and a great spot to sit and enjoy the garden and riverside surroundings

Also on the ground floor is a double bedroom, along with a separate shower room, making this an ideal option for guests, older children or anyone looking for bedroom and bathroom facilities on one level. A separate utility room provides further practical space away from the main living accommodation.

Upstairs are three further double bedrooms.

The impressive main bedroom measures over 21ft in length and benefits from its own en-suite shower room, while the two additional bedrooms are both generously proportioned. A separate family bathroom completes the upper floor.

Outside is where Riverside Cottage really comes into its own.

The property enjoys a large, private and enclosed rear garden, surrounded by greenery and with the River Doon running directly along its boundary. The property also benefits from fishing rights, giving the riverside setting an extra dimension that’s difficult to find.

Whether it’s sitting outside listening to the river, enjoying the garden with family and friends or simply having the space and privacy that comes with a rural home, the outside space is a huge part of the appeal here.

Despite its peaceful position, Riverside Cottage doesn’t feel isolated. Ayr is approximately six miles away, while Dalrymple is around two miles from the property, providing access to everyday amenities including a primary school, shop, pub, takeaway and pharmacy.

For anyone looking for a home with character, space and a genuinely special countryside setting, Riverside Cottage offers something quite different from the norm.

Viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate both the property and its riverside location.
