Borland House, Kilmarnock

Yates Hellier are delighted to present Borland House. Constructed in 1905 as the Dowry House for Craufordland Castle, it stands out as a leading example of an Edwardian mansion house, featuring a variety of gardens and enclosed fields that are bordered by the Fenwick Water.

This private and semi-rural estate spans approximately 6 acres, featuring an orchard, a standalone garden house, two enclosed fields, a spacious driveway, and beautifully landscaped gardens, conveniently located mere minutes from the M77 for direct access to Glasgow City Centre.

This exquisite period residence offers versatile living spaces spread over two levels, including a grand entrance hall with a working fireplace and a basement comprising two substantial storage areas. There are nine principle apartments, three bathroom suites, a grand dining kitchen with an adjacent utility room, and a magnificent master suite with an en-suite bathroom and walk-in wardrobe.

The interior includes an inviting entrance hall with a statement fireplace and staircase to the second floor, a formal living room with a fireplace, a spacious dining kitchen opening to the backyard, a range cooker, a utility room, a ground-floor toilet, a formal dining area with a dome-shaped vaulted ceiling, and a guest suite comprising a lounge, a double bedroom, and a contemporary shower room. The second floor features a spacious landing with a window overlooking the front and a storage closet with attic access, a modern family shower room, a master bedroom with dual-aspect windows leading to a luxurious en suite bathroom with a dressing area, an office/library, and two additional double bedrooms, one with an adjoining shower room. The smaller right wing of this formidable country house was converted and added to a separate title when the property was extended years ago, and this is not included with the sale.
