Set in open farming countryside near Strathaven, West Hookhead Farmhouse is a substantial traditional cottage offered for auction with a low guide price. The property spans two levels with seven bedrooms and generous rooms throughout, providing clear scope for a spacious family home or a refurbishment investment. Unrestricted views over fields, a side driveway and garden add to the rural appeal.
The house is presented mid-renovation and requires comprehensive refurbishment and modernisation, including updating services and addressing visible damp and general disrepair. There is no home report due to internal condition. The lot is offered at auction on 07 November 2025 with a heavily discounted guide price, creating potential to add immediate value for buyers prepared to undertake the works.
Planning or development potential is mentioned but would be subject to researching and obtaining necessary consents; any buyer should verify development scope and check tenure details and access arrangements. The property has fast broadband and excellent mobile signal despite the rural setting, and it sits close enough to Strathaven for local shops and to larger towns for wider services.
This is suited to an experienced developer, investor or an owner-occupier seeking a large farmhouse project who can manage renovation risks and access limitations (locked gates and shared access road). The setting, scale and low guide price make this a rare auction opportunity, but expect significant time, cost and regulatory steps before occupation or development.
