8 Dunlop Manor, Dunlop, East Ayrshire, KA3 4BD

Dunlop Manor was been Individually commissioned by Sir James Dunlop, by distinguished Glasgow architect David Hamilton in 1834, this stunning Scottish Jacobean-style manor house was home to Sir James Dunlop and certainly was one of David Hamilton’s favourite buildings.

The property itself has a long history and fell into disuse and disrepair and was awarded its A building listing by Historic Scotland. An important feature of the property is the glazed self-cleaning atrium which floods the great entrance reception hallway with natural light.

Set in level well-stocked grounds, almost hidden from view with a sweeping driveway that sets a grand stage for Dunlop Manor, is a particularly picturesque example of countryside living. It gives a glimpse of the quality features; this charming property has to offer and truly has to be seen to be believed.
