Never at this time of year have there been so few properties on the market.

An unprecedented time of difficulty for people wanting to sell and buy. And a revenue disaster for estate agents. But out of this spell we will surely come.

This week we feature a terrific property put on the market just before the shutdown.

And the five-bedroomed Helenton View is ready to move into without a thing needing done.

It lies amidst lush pasture about a mile from Symington, spread out in old farm steading style over 3,444 square feet.

This is no old farm property inside, instead an executive take on modern country living for the family.

Plenty of glass gives you views across the fertile Pow Valley.

The Pow Burn trickles past nearby, the same water that goes under Prestwick Airports main runway, through Prestwick Golf Course and into the sea between Prestwick and Troon. Corum in Troon has it for sale at offers over 495,000.

The design includes some rooms which span to the apex of the roof, giving a true feeling of space. Many old farm properties with their small windows and low ceilings can feel claustrophobic.

Corum say: The level of fixtures and fittings is luxurious, including sanitary ware by Porcelanosa, a custom kitchen with integrated appliances and extensive use of solid oak, including the doors, surrounds and a large part of the downstairs flooring.

The family room with mezzanine sitting area stretches to more than thirty six feet. Upstairs there is a big theatre room to take in movies with the family.

Back at ground level, there is a custom kitchen/ dining room with the spaces defined by an island with hob.

A lovely feature is the fireplace which can be seen from the lounge and the dining area. Four of the five bedrooms are downstairs, with three having en-suites, the master having extra wardrobes and a full height ceiling.

Other features include underfloor heating, electric blinds, and media system. Outside electric gates lead to a sweeping drive. Call Corum on Troon 310010, offers over 495,000.
