Summary - WHIN HOUSE, ISLE OF ARRAN, KILDONAN KA27 8RR
3 bed 3 bath Not Specified
Spacious home on two acres with forestry and development potential.
Panoramic southerly sea views to Pladda and Ailsa Craig
Auchenwhin is a spacious detached chalet bungalow set in an elevated, peaceful rural setting with sweeping southerly sea views across the Firth of Clyde to Pladda and Ailsa Craig. The substantial living space includes multiple reception rooms, three generous double bedrooms (option to create a fourth), and three bathrooms, arranged over two floors around a dramatic galleried hall and timber staircase. Large windows and French doors maximise light and the coastal outlook.
The grounds extend to approximately two acres, combining level lawn immediately around the house with about half an acre of forestry and outbuildings. The sweeping gravel drive provides parking and turning for several vehicles and the plot offers clear scope for landscaping, garden projects or modest development subject to permissions. The sale includes the house contents and moveables, plus timber sheds and an open store.
Practicalities are straightforward but notable. Services are mains electricity and water; drainage is to a private septic tank. Heating and hot water are electric (storage and panel heaters, supplemented by electric stoves), mobile signal is average and broadband speeds are very slow. The property sits in a remote community around 20 miles from the Brodick ferry terminal, and local amenities are limited — travel planning for ferries is recommended.
This is a family-sized coastal retreat for buyers seeking space, privacy and views rather than instant urban convenience. The house is well presented but offers sensible potential for cosmetic updating and electrics/heating improvements to better suit modern living. Council Tax band F (expensive) and the remoteness of the location are important considerations, balanced by exceptional outdoor space and a rare elevated coastal outlook.
