A rare opportunity to acquire a substantial “Townhouse Style” Traditional Sandstone End Terrace Villa, of particular appeal to those buyers seeking a Character Home which features impressive larger proportioned 6 Main Apartment accommodation over 3 levels. This desirable home enjoys a very convenient town centre location with easy access to a wide variety of amenities/shopping/public transport whilst Ayr’s sweeping promenade/seafront is within eyesight/a short walk - noting the elevated views from the attic apartment, across the rooftops with the coastline stretching out along the horizon.
The current owner has undertaken refurbishment works over an extended period of time, gradually nearing completion, with the extensive attic level a particular focal point - formally converted with the necessary planning permission etc. Some minor works are required however the competitive price allows scope for the successful purchaser to finalise the interior to suit their own style/budget (noting the positive Home Report mortgage valuation of £220,000). The accommodation is featured over the elevated ground & first floors with a further staircase rising to the very substantial attic level. The garden level flat & a mews-style single storey building to the rear are under separate ownership and not offered for sale.
No 6 is accessed via an imposing external stair which rises from pavement level, with the main door opening onto most appealing accommodation which comprises, a substantial reception hall, 2 well proportioned public rooms and the kitchen on the elevated ground floor. The main staircase from the reception leads to the first floor hallway which features 3 bedrooms together with a larger style 4 piece bathroom. A discreetly positioned and well constructed staircase nestles just off the upper hallway, rising to the attic level which is available as a very substantial/private 4th bedroom or available for use as a 3rd public room - currently an open-plan living/family/cinema room.
The specification includes both gas central heating. EPC – D. The rear garden is accessed via an external staircase leading down from the kitchen – we understand a central area of garden is titled to this particular property (exact details to be confirmed from the title deeds). On-street parking is available, subject to local authority regulations (noting residents parking permits are currently available at an annually renewable cost).
In our view, this desirable Traditional Home offers substantial “Glasgow West End Style” living at a very affordable price …with the magic of Ayr’s sweeping promenade/seafront to entice you on the best of summer days or bracing autumn/winter days when you can re-invigorate yourself watching the waves that demand your attention. To view this most appealing property please telephone BLACK HAY ESTATE AGENTS direct on 01292 283606. The Home Report is available to view here exclusively on our blackhay.co.uk website. The property is offered for sale on a “sold-as-seen” basis (noting some works are incomplete).

CLOSING DATE: TUESDAY 3rd SEPTEMBER 2024 at 12 NOON - Within sought after “Marr Residential Development” comprising mixed style modern homes, this desirable Detached Bungalow is of broad appeal, featuring neatly presented on-the-level 5 Main Apartment Accommodation. Set amidst attractive private gardens with private driveway to the front and the rear garden offering the option to perhaps add a garage (subject to any required planning permission etc) if required – we understand this particular property was originally a “Show Home” for the development and there was space for a garage to the rear (accessed from the adjacent rear cul de sac) which was not erected at the time.
The welcoming accommodation comprises, reception hall, spacious open-plan lounge/dining lounge with patio door to garden, separate kitchen with small sunroom off which overlooks the rear gardens, three bedrooms - with the main bedroom (No 3) conveniently featuring an en-suite whilst the main bathroom is situated off the reception hall.

The private driveway to the left side provides off-street parking whilst on-street parking is also available. Neatly presented private gardens are provided with the rear garden enclosed for privacy, providing outdoor space in which to relax or potter.
Troon, on Ayrshire's sweeping coastline, is a highly favoured "Seaside Town" with its sweeping seafront/promenade, also notable for its world renowned golf courses (with the recent Open Golf Tournament having been played at Royal Troon Golf Course), also featuring its own bustling marina. Naturally Troon is of broad appeal, popular with locals and commuters alike, Glasgow Buyers particularly favouring its wonderful seafront location whilst being only approx' 35 minutes commute by car from Glasgow City Centre (both train & bus services aid those commuting) whilst Edinburgh/East Coast Buyers favour the better weather of Troon on the West Coast. The property is conveniently located for access into the town centre with its broad array of shopping, restaurants/bars & amenities, whilst both the A77/A79 are easily accessible by car. Prestwick Airport is a few miles away.
In our view… an excellent opportunity to acquire a desirable Detached Bungalow which has been a much loved home to its owner over many years, seldom available within this favoured modern development. The re-location from city to seaside continues whether for those commuting or perhaps retired or looking towards retirement, Troon undoubtedly provides a very attractive option for clients to re-locate whilst local buyers continue to favour Bungalow style homes.

* NEW to Market - Available to View Now * The short phrase “Blank Canvas” pops up within the property industry, usually describing a property which requires extensive modernisation or perhaps an unfinished new build property/project with little or no interior fittings. St Nicholas Road, Prestwick is in every sense a blank canvas, however this Detached Character Home represents a real opportunity for those clients wishing to create their own Special Home.
St Nicholas Road arrives to the market in a basic/”Sold as Seen” condition however one can easily see what is required to refurbish/modernise whilst also considering the further development potential. Currently featuring flexible on-the-level 4 Main Apartment Accommodation which is fairly described as 2 public rooms & 2 bedrooms, the 2nd public room (adjacent to the kitchen) would most likely be suited as a dining style kitchen if the current layout was retained, noting however the larger rear garden which could happily host extended accommodation. The attic level has been used for storage however nearby properties demonstrate the development potential (all references to “development potential/extensions” etc are of course subject to the successful purchaser acquiring planning consent/building warrant etc).
Internal viewing reveals well proportioned accommodation which retains character features, in particular comprising, entrance vestibule onto reception hall, most appealing bay windowed lounge to the front, dining/family room (directly behind the lounge) with access from here onto a very basic kitchen (door to garden), two double bedrooms (to the front & rear respectively) whilst a simple bathroom (again requiring modernisation) is located off the reception hall to the rear.
The specification includes traditional single glazing together with a gas supply (noting the gas fires should be treated as not working and requiring a safety inspection – therefore sold-as-seen). EPC – G. Attic storage is available with a small access hatch located in the bathroom (no ladder access). The front garden area has been hard surfaced to provide private/off-street parking. The rear garden is mostly lawned with brick boundary walls, of larger size, an inviting space in which to relax or potter outdoors whilst also able to provide a good sized garden area even if a future owner extends the footprint of the house. On-street parking is also available.
Prestwick remains Ayrshire's "property hotspot", with its well established mixed main street shopping/restaurants/amenities, whilst the sweeping promenade/seafront is within walking distance or a cycle/car journey. Public transport includes bus & train. Prestwick Airport is nearby whilst the property is also convenient for access to the A77/A78. Of broad appeal, undoubtedly valued by local buyers, whilst further afield interest will extend to Glasgow based buyers/those relocating from South of the Border, seeking a change of lifestyle from city to seaside ...and a better work/life balance.
Graeme Lumsden, Director/Valuer of BLACK HAY Estate Agents comments… “ With 37 years in the property industry, marketing/selling thousands of homes, I’m still attracted to Blank Canvas properties as my mind/imagination plays out what I would do with the property/what my spend would be …and what the final Dream Home would look like.
Of course, that is both the serious & fun process for potential buyers when considering this fine Character Home. One can clearly imagine what the property was like, consider how it actually looks today ….and how it can evolve with renovation works.
Clearly a tremendous opportunity to secure a very desirable home in thriving Prestwick …one can imagine the celebrations of the successful buyers when they secure their future Dream Home. ”
