*NEW to Market - Available to View Now* A superb opportunity for the skilled “DIY’er” or those seeking a home which they can have professionally upgraded to their own style/budget …this very desirable “Attached” Traditional Red Sandstone fronted Bungalow is located within highly popular Prestwick, sought after for its vibrant town centre and proximity to the sweeping seafront/promenade.
This appealing home requires modernisation, notably offered for sale on a “Sold as Seen” basis following internal damage from a burst pipe, however the competitive price easily accommodates future refurbishment works.
Deceptive externally, internal viewing reveals 5 Main Apartments over 2 levels with the added benefit of a detached garage to the rear. The accommodation is best suited to use as 2 public (ground floor) & 3 bedrooms (on the upper level) …however one of the ground floor apartments has been utilised as an additional bedroom in the past.
Reading the Home Report reflects that the property has been left in a “shell like” state following the water damage however some considerable time has elapsed since and the property is presented dry with exposed timbers in the kitchen ceiling which was the main area of damage. The Sellers could have chosen to refurbish the property and then marketed at a substantial premium to its current price however the decision was made to offer the property for sale “as-seen” to allow the successful purchaser the opportunity to re-style to their own specification/budget.
The accommodation is accessed via a side main door entrance onto the reception hall which leads onto the ground floor apartments whilst a substantial staircase leads to the upper hallway. In particular, on ground floor – bay windowed lounge, separate larger dining/family room, separate kitchen with porch off. On the upper level, 3 bedrooms – the 2 larger “dormer windowed” bedrooms to the front (Nos 1 & 2) with a smaller 3rd bedroom to the rear whilst the bathroom is located off the upper hallway.
The specification includes both gas central heating & double glazing however please note the gas central heating system is untested/sold-as-seen. EPC – D. Private gardens are featured to the front & rear, with the rear requiring attention. A lane style driveway to the rear leads to a detached garage whilst on-street parking is also available.
The Home Report notes a Mortgage Valuation for the property (in its present unrefurbished condition) of £155,000. The “Market Value” is expected to be higher. Please note once again that the property is “Sold-as-Seen” with no guarantees or warranties provided (we would advise for instance that the electrical wiring is further safety tested/inspected *replaced in areas perhaps* even although there has been considerable drying out time).
In our view, this style of home remains highly sought after by local buyers and particularly Glasgow based buyers seeking a change of lifestyle from city to seaside. Prestwick’s thriving town centre provides an interesting mix of shopping/amenities, a welcome contrast to typical repetitive high street offerings. The A79/A77 are a short car journey away from Whinfield Road providing convenient access North & South …and of course Prestwick promenade/seafront invites one to relax by-the-sea on calm summer days or stride out on bracing autumn/winter seafront walks when one can enjoy the seaspray!
The property remains very desirable and will no doubt appeal to the enthusiastic purchaser who embraces the unique opportunity this Charming Home provides…

Noting the Home Report Mortgage Valuation figure of £145,000 for the property as presented.

*NEW to Market - Available to View Now* Enjoying favoured Prestwick residential locale, this desirable Semi Detached Bungalow does require modernisation, hence the competitive price, however the successful purchaser secures the opportunity to modernise/re-style to suit their own particular style/specification & budget ….rather than paying a “premium” for an already modernised property which isn’t to the style which they would wish. In addition the undeveloped attic area offers further potential - subject to any required planning permission etc.
The accommodation which is conveniently all on-the-level comprises, entrance vestibule onto the reception hall, good sized lounge, separate kitchen (door to garden from here), 2 bedrooms & bathroom. Partial mixed vintage electric heating and double glazing are featured (both “sold-as-seen”). There is no gas supply within the property however we believe a mains gas supply is located within Morris Road – connection may be possible at the new owners expense/if permitted by the gas supplier etc (no guarantee of supply offered by the seller). EPC – E. The attic area invites further development (if required), subject to the required planning/building warrant etc. Private gardens are provided to the front & rear.

*NEW to Market - Available to View Now* Easily missed within its cul de sac just off Marina Road, this Modern Style Detached Bungalow would normally be particularly sought after due to its near seafront location, however in this instance every picture does indeed tell a story …on this occasion it’s clear that the property does require modernisation both internally/externally, however the competitive price allows scope for the successful purchaser to re-style to their own taste/budget.
The property was privately built new for its current & only owner, latterly however the maintenance/upkeep has fallen behind, hence the property is now offered for sale on a “Sold as Seen” basis. The property will likely be of broad appeal to a range of buyers and one can easily envisage how the successful purchaser will enhance both the property and its value following modernisation.
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 short cycle/car journey. Bungalow Homes of this style are much in demand and although of broad appeal are valued particularly by retired/semi retired clients & 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.
Access is via a main door entrance & vestibule to the front of the property, then opening onto a very spacious L-shaped lounge/dining which one can imagine being the focal point following refurbishment, a corridor style hallway off leads onto the kitchen, 2 bedrooms and bathroom.
A gas supply/gas central heating system is present however this is untested & sold-as-seen. There is an untested solid-fuel fire in the lounge/dining, again sold-as-seen. EPC – D. Private gardens are featured however these clearly will require considerable attention, noting that there is disused caravan in the rear garden and this will be left for the new owner to deal with/remove. Parking is available off-street within the driveway to the side of the property.
Graeme Lumsden, Director/Valuer of BLACK HAY Estate Agents comments…
“ With 35 years working in the property industry across Scotland, that iconic phrase location, location & location remains one of the key factors about a particular property’s desirability. In addition, post-lockdown has delivered a much increased flow of buyers who yearn for a more relaxed style of living, particularly moving from bustling city life in Glasgow to a coastal location that offers relaxing seafront/beach walks, encouraging one to enjoy the outdoor life.
In my view… although 37A Marina Road is clearly a challenge, it is equally an opportunity to acquire a Detached Bungalow with real potential in a highly favoured near seafront location. One can easily imagine how it will be transformed by the successful buyer into a comfortable home from which to enjoy the thriving coastal town of Prestwick. “

*NEW to Market - Available to View Now* A superb opportunity to acquire a desirable Traditional Cottage Style Bungalow set amidst an attractive terrace of similar style homes, within highly popular Prestwick, sought after for its vibrant town centre and proximity to the sweeping seafront/promenade. This absolutely charming home is deceptive externally, internal viewing reveals extended on-the-level accommodation of 3 Main Apartments with the rear facing apartments enjoying garden views/and access from the featured patio doors. The accommodation offers flexibility of use and although used by the owner as 2 public/1 bedroom, it easily reverts to 1 public/2 bedroom.
The accommodation stretches rearwards and is on-the-level with an undeveloped attic area …comprising, welcoming reception hall with walk-in storage/cloaks cupboard concealing the access hatch to the attic area, a spacious bay windowed “master” bedroom to the front (No 1), centrally positioned is a most appealing lounge/dining with patio door to garden, an older style yet very neatly presented kitchen is accessed from the lounge/dining (the kitchen also has a rear door to the garden), a short corridor hall leading from the kitchen has a door to the side opening onto the older style bathroom, whilst ahead a final door opens onto the rear bedroom (No 2) – currently a comfortable living room, again with patio door to garden.
The specification includes both gas central heating & double glazing. EPC – D. A private garden area is featured to the front, partly accommodating a private driveway for off-street parking whilst the rear garden invites one to relax or potter outdoors with 3 access points from the house. A communal pathway running along the rear boundaries of these terraced properties provides separate access for moving wheelie bins (details to be confirmed from title deeds). On-street parking is also available. (noting that some adjacent properties appear to have developed their shaped attic areas however planning permission etc would be required and the shape of this area, in our opinion, limits development to a degree)
This style of home remains highly sought after by local buyers and particularly Glasgow based buyers seeking a change of lifestyle from city to seaside. Prestwick’s thriving town centre provides an interesting mix of shopping/amenities, a welcome contrast to typical repetitive high street offerings. The A79/A77 are a short car journey away from Briarhill Road providing convenient access North & South …and of course Prestwick promenade/seafront invites one to relax by-the-sea on calm summer days or stride out on bracing autumn/winter seafront walks when one can enjoy the seaspray!
In our view… the competitive price does reflect that the property would benefit from modernisation however it has clearly been a much loved & very comfortable home to its owner. There is no doubt that the new owner/s will be purchasing a Charming Home which they can re-style to suit their taste/budget …and comfortably enjoy in the years to come.
