We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
Nestled along a quiet no-through road beside Knockquhassen Reservoir, Hideaway Cottage enjoys far-reaching countryside views towards Ailsa Craig, offering a rare opportunity to enjoy a rural lifestyle in a truly picturesque location.
The property comprises a beautifully maintained bungalow, four stables, a tack room, hay barn, garage and just under three acres of land, offering an excellent opportunity to acquire a rural smallholding with equestrian and small-scale agricultural potential.
The bungalow provides comfortable accommodation, including three bedrooms, one of which benefits from an en-suite shower room, together with a bright and light-filled living room, kitchen and family bathroom.
Outside, the home is surrounded by landscaped garden grounds, predominantly laid to lawn, with a stone-gravel parking area providing space for several vehicles, as well as a garage.
Well suited to equestrian use, the property benefits from four timber stables, tack room, hay barn and well-fenced grazing paddocks.
The land offers flexibility for a variety of rural pursuits and could readily be adapted to suit a range of smallholding uses.
