Property Description

Drumbain Estate – A Coastal Retreat Rich in Scottish Character.

A unique opportunity to acquire a substantial coastal estate on Scotland’s scenic western shoreline. Drumbain offers approximately 400 yards of shoreline, where historic charm meets modern comfort. Once part of the landscapes said to have inspired Robert Burns, and near the renowned Culzean Castle, the estate blends cultural significance with natural beauty.

This is more than a property purchase; it’s a chance to own and enjoy a carefully restored South Ayrshire farmhouse, thoughtfully developed to provide a high standard of coastal living.

Natural Light and Sea Views.
At the heart of Drumbain is an open-plan glass-walled kitchen and dining space, where floor-to-ceiling windows provide uninterrupted views across the Firth of Clyde. From calm morning mists to dramatic weather sweeping across the water, the setting changes with the seasons. The south and west-facing timber terrace opens directly from the living area, offering an ideal space to enjoy the coastal environment.

Comfortable, Versatile Accommodation.
The main house includes six bedrooms, four of which are en suite. The design pays respect to the original farmhouse while incorporating modern features such as underfloor geothermal heating and woodburning fireplaces. The lounge and snug complement the open-plan areas, providing spaces for both entertaining and quiet relaxation.

Land, Grazing and Outbuildings.
The estate comprises approximately 53 acres of IACS-registered grassland, currently used for seasonal grazing. This land presents opportunities for continued agricultural use or for enjoyment of the landscape. Several outbuildings on the property may offer development potential, subject to the necessary planning consents (STPP).

Woodland Glen and Coastal Access.
Beneath a large walled garden lies a mature woodland glen with a burn flowing to the sea. A private footpath follows the stream through the glen and leads directly to the property’s private shoreline. Throughout the year, the landscape transforms with the seasons, supporting a variety of flora and fauna.

Coastal Setting and Wildlife.
Drumbain’s private shoreline offers direct access to a range of outdoor activities including swimming and paddleboarding. The surrounding natural environment supports local wildlife such as seabirds, deer and owls, which can often be seen and heard around the estate.
