Crorieshill is a most attractive farm with a charming farmhouse, garden, well maintained steading and excellent grazing land. The property enjoys a secluded yet accessible location adjacent to the historic Cassillis Estate with its imposing castle and over 300 acres of policies and grass parks. Maybole is approximately 2 miles away and has a supermarket, chemist, bakery as well as both primary and secondary schooling. A wider variety of high street shops, bars and restaurants are available in Ayr (about 7 miles) as well as many recreational and professional facilities. Craig Wilson livestock market is located outside Ayr and has busy weekly sales as well as a number of surrounding ancillary trades including animal feeds and medicines, dairy engineers, trailer and machinery dealers. The farm is well placed for easy access to Glasgow via the A77/M77 and Glasgow Airport (about 44 miles). Prestwick Airport is about 10.5 miles distant and the ferry terminal at Cairnryan is about 38 miles to the south.
Crorieshill was historically run as a dairy unit. Latterly the fields have been let on seasonal grazing agreements. The farm extends to approximately 130 acres in total, available as a whole or in four lots and lies off the B7045. Most of the land enjoys a south westerly aspect and ranges between 140ft and 250ft above sea level and is classified as predominantly grade 3(2) with some 3(1) and 4(1) by the James Hutton Institute. The land is presently all down to grass and is in excellent heart having been well maintained over many years. The fields have good access from the main road.
The farmhouse is well presented and has a traditional stone steading at the rear. There is a modest range of more modern farm buildings including a Crendon shed, hay shed, implement shed and slatted shed which are all well maintained.
Crorieshill is offered for sale as a whole or in four lots.

Broadband availability and predicted speed
Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:
Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
