Bellisle is a rare lifestyle opportunity, a substantial and beautifully presented country home offering extraordinary accommodation, independent guest facilities, extensive grounds and complete versatility. Whether intended as an impressive family residence or as a multi-generational home, it delivers the space, privacy and setting to create an enviable Ayrshire lifestyle.

This is an impressive and exceptionally spacious country residence extending to approximately 8,235 sq ft, offering a versatile combination of family accommodation, guest accommodation and ancillary space. The principal house provides five bedrooms and has been thoughtfully designed to combine traditional character with contemporary living.

Set within just under eight acres of beautifully landscaped grounds, Bellisle is an outstanding country residence that combines timeless character with sophisticated contemporary living.

Together with a detached cottage, self-contained annexe and substantial garage, this remarkable property provides an exceptional level of space and flexibility.

Approached by a sweeping private driveway, Bellisle immediately conveys a wonderful sense of arrival. Surrounded by mature hedgerows, established gardens and uninterrupted views across the Ayrshire countryside, the property enjoys an enviable combination of seclusion, tranquillity and accessibility.

At the heart of the principal house is a spectacular entrance hall, where a vaulted ceiling, exposed stonework, timber detailing and full-height glazing create an impressive first impression. A bespoke staircase with glass balustrade adds a contemporary architectural flourish, while the extensive glazing draws the beauty of the surrounding landscape into the home.

The principal living spaces have been designed with modern family life and entertaining in mind. A magnificent open-plan kitchen, dining and living area forms the social heart of the house, with a stylish contemporary kitchen centred around a generous island and fitted with integrated appliances. Tiled flooring and underfloor heating provide comfort and practicality, while extensive glazing and skylights flood the space with natural light. Direct access to the garden creates an effortless connection between the interiors and terraces beyond.

For more formal occasions, the elegant drawing room features exposed timber beams and a striking fireplace, while the generous dining room provides an exceptional setting for entertaining, with large windows framing the surrounding gardens and countryside.

The principal house currently provides five beautifully appointed bedrooms, with each room offering a calm and understated retreat. The luxurious principal suite enjoys generous proportions, attractive garden views and a superb en-suite featuring a walk-in shower and double vanity. Further bedrooms provide excellent flexibility for family and guests, complemented by a collection of stylish, high-specification bathrooms.

A particular highlight is the impressive 44-foot plus multi-purpose suite, offering an extraordinary amount of space for modern working. Whether configured as a leisure room, business headquarters, studio, library or creative workspace, its scale and versatility make it a truly exceptional addition to the property.

The accommodation is further enhanced by a fully self-contained annexe, comprising a contemporary kitchen, open-plan living space, bedroom and bathroom. Ideal for guests, extended family, independent living or potential rental use, it adds a valuable layer of flexibility to this already exceptional home.

A separate detached cottage provides yet further accommodation, featuring a contemporary kitchen, spacious living areas and two double bedrooms. High-quality bathrooms, an additional attic room and charming exposed stonework combine character with modern comfort. The attic space offers further possibilities as a home office, gym, studio or hobby room.

Outside, the approximately eight-acre grounds are every bit as impressive as the accommodation. Mature hedgerows provide privacy and structure, while established planting creates year-round interest. A natural pond introduces an attractive feature and supports local biodiversity, adding to the peaceful rural character of the setting.

Immediately surrounding the house, a series of beautifully positioned paved terraces and seating areas provide the perfect backdrop for outdoor entertaining, al fresco dining or simply enjoying the outstanding views. The seamless relationship between the principal living spaces and gardens makes Bellisle Farm particularly well suited to modern indoor-outdoor living.

Beyond the formal gardens, the extensive grounds provide exceptional freedom and flexibility, with ample space for recreation, leisure pursuits and potential future opportunities, subject to the necessary consents.
