IT’S a “dream come Troon” for golf lovers looking for a unique home – but you’d need a substantial wedge to get it!

A property with spectacularly sporty views  – in the middle of the Royal Troon course hosting the British Open – is on sale for £1.5million.

Estate agents promise “there isn’t anything else available in the world” like Blackrock House.

The historic premises offers a window – or two – on play at the 2nd, 3rd, 16th, 17th and 18th holes.

The property is split in two, with David and Isabel Kelly putting their half of it up for sale after three decades.

At around 250 years old, four-bedroom Blackrock House on the Firth of Clyde in Ayrshire pre-dates the famous links course and The Open itself.

Royal Toon was set up in 1878, initially with just six holes.

Now it’s got 45 holes and has been on the tournament’s roster since 1923 – with about 250,000 golf fans walking past Blackrock House this week at the 152nd Open.

The pick of the views from inside the property include the entire 391-yard, par 4 second hole and an eagle-eyed look straight down the 458-yard 18th.

Annabel Blackett, from estate agents Strutt & Parker, described the listing as “one of those rare times where you can safely say there isn’t anything else like this available in the world”.

She added: “The home’s driveway meanders through the course and takes you into almost another world – a world which must surely feel like a dream for any golf fans.

“From here, you can watch five holes from the comfort of your own home, and of course you also have the club on your doorstep for your own playing.

“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.

“Now split into two homes, our clients have owned Blackrock House for 30 years, so this sale presents a rare opportunity for someone to own a slice of one of the most famous links courses in the country.”

Almost like having your own, ultra large and exclusive 19th hole!
