‘Blackrock House’ sits in the middle of the championship course and has views of five holes
Spectators walk past a house that is listed for sale near the second and 16th holes at Royal Troon golf club, in Troon, Scotland, on July 16.An estimated 250,000 golf fans will pour into Royal Troon to watch the likes of Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy and Tiger Woods at the British Open .
The Kellys have watched three editions of the British Open from their front lawn including an epic duel in 2016 when Henrik Stenson beat Phil Mickelson. The other views whether from the lawn or the upstairs bedroom include the green for No. 2, as well as the tees at No. 3 and No. 17. “This is a different Open for us because our mother has just passed away in the last month,” Andrew Kelly said.
“We were still getting things prepared for my mom to enjoy the Open, because she liked being here,” Andrew said. “She loved it. She used to play golf in her younger days and go on golf holidays and things.”So, the million dollar question: how much will it cost to buy the property? The Kellys declined to specify an asking price, saying the real estate company would come out with it this week.
“If I came here six months from now when all the tents and all the build-out is gone, I think it would be a lot more unusual,” he said.
