This may be the dream home for the right golf fan. A property in Troon, Scotland, has hit the market for $1.95 million. The Blackrock Cottage sits on Royal Troon, one of the most notable golf courses in Scotland.
Established in 1878, Royal Troon has hosted 10 British Open tournaments, most recently the 2024 Open Championship. The semi-detached property for sale, described as "the best house in golf," according to the listing, has four bedrooms and four rooms right off Crosbie Road.
The cottage has a view of five holes and the coast. The Royal Troon clubhouse is just steps away. The son of the previous owners told the Associated Press the family is selling the beloved cottage following the death of their mother. "We were going to sell it anyway, so we decided to put it on during the Open. As you can imagine, it’s probably the best time to do it," Andrew Kelly told the AP.
The Kelly Family watched three Open tournaments take place right outside their windows, the AP reported. "While the views are fantastic year round – and particularly with the coastal waters in the distance – the position really comes into its own when a championship as prestigious as The Open is in town," said Blackett.
