*NEW to Market - Available to View Now* A superb opportunity to acquire a desirable Semi Detached Bungalow within highly popular Prestwick, sought after for its vibrant town centre and proximity to the sweeping seafront/promenade. This most appealing home is deceptive externally, internally viewing reveals extended on-the-level accommodation of 4 Main Apartments with the added benefit of a private driveway & detached garage. The accommodation is better suited to use as 2 public & 2 bedrooms (rather than as 3 bedroom/1 public).
The well proportioned accommodation comprises, T-shaped reception hall, most appealing bay windowed lounge (alternative 3rd bedroom if absolutely required), dining/family room with access from here to a separate modern style kitchen (door from here to garden), 2 double bedrooms and bathroom (bath replaced with shower cubicle).
The specification includes both gas central heating & double glazing. EPC – D. Private gardens are featured to the front – twin gated, whilst the rear is sheltered/enclosed with a neat central lawn inviting one to enjoy outdoors, an adjoining pebbled area & greenhouse. A broad private paved driveway provides off-street parking whilst also leading to a detached single garage which provides secure parking/storage. (noting the attic area is not suitable for development due to restricted head-height).
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 Berelands 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!

*NEW to Market - Available to View Now* An excellent opportunity to acquire a continually sought after Semi Detached Bungalow within favoured Prestwick locale. Of broad appeal this neatly presented home has been a comfortable haven for its owners over many decades. The property is competitively priced to reflect that the successful purchaser will no doubt take the opportunity to modernise to their own style/budget. The much larger than expected private gardens are in our opinion a real positive (although overgrown in some areas), previously a combination of an outdoor area to enjoy when the good weather beckons together with the added attraction of a (now disused) productive vegetable area. In addition a private gated driveway provides off-street parking.
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 to the side from the driveway, the entrance vestibule opening onto the reception hall which leads onto the remaining apartments of… spacious lounge with space for small dining table/chairs, separate kitchen (“dated” style), two double bedrooms and bathroom (again “dated” style).
The specification includes both electric heating and double glazing. EPC – E. An undeveloped attic area is available. Mature private gardens wrap around the property, of larger size, of appeal to both the keen gardener or family buyer seeking more space for children to enjoy the outdoors. Parking is available off-street within the gated driveway whilst on-street parking is also available.
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… this is a wonderful opportunity to acquire a very desirable Semi Detached Bungalow, a home that offers real potential, both internally & externally with its larger private gardens. 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. “

A unique Traditional Flat retaining considerable character, enjoying favoured ground floor position within most appealing Traditional Sandstone Terrace, with No 19 having been re-slated in 2017, comprising 4 flats - 2 on each level. Bellevue Crescent is a highly regarded residential locale of mixed style period homes, reminiscent in style/location to Glasgow's desirable "West End", yet at a much more competitive price ...and with Ayr's sweeping promenade/seafront within walking distance.
Particular mention should be made of the unique nature of the accommodation featured - we are advised that the original "Washhouse" which served the common building was acquired by this flat circa 1930's, now utilised as the breakfasting/kitchen, uniquely adding to its larger proportioned accommodation. Further focal points include the provision of a private "back door" onto its private rear garden area together with a useful "sun-porch" and a valued garage (smaller size - potential buyers are advised to check whether their vehicle would fit).
Internal viewing reveals most appealing accommodation of 4 Main Apartments - in particular, a welcoming reception hall, impressive bay windowed formal lounge to the front with attractive outlook, separate dining/family room which could be utilised as a 3rd bedroom if required, breakfasting/kitchen (within original wash-house - note angular shape & part split-level) with a door leading to a useful sun-porch overlooking the rear garden, 2 bedrooms (to front & rear respectively) and bathroom.
The specification includes both gas central heating & double glazing. EPC - E. The stone chipped front garden area is private to this property whilst the main garden area pictured to the rear is also private to this property (exact details to be confirmed from title deeds along with any right of access for other owners etc). A private external cellar is provided whilst we understand there is partial use available of a small former wash-house (shared with other owners). A common pathway to the rear provides access to the garage which is also private to this property, this also being accessible from the lane running parallel to the rear of Bellevue Crescent. On-street parking is available (residents permit can be purchased at annual cost from the local council).
In our view... A superb opportunity to acquire a charming Traditional Flat, unique with its larger layout/configuration, with the added benefit of its own private rear door, gardens and a garage. It would benefit from modernisation however the competitive price allows scope for the successful purchaser to re-style to their own budget/specification.

No 6/6A Saunterne Road, Prestwick - Very deceptive externally this Unique Double Extended Semi Detached Cottage is tucked away behind its simply styled 2-Storey Extension which faces onto Saunterne Road whilst the private driveway to the side conceals the more visually interesting Original single-storey Traditional Cottage, extended later to the rear to provide additional accommodation plus a conservatory (more photos to follow soon).
Discussions with our owners reveal the Original Cottage forms the central portion of the property (when viewed from the side/driveway) with the 2-storey extension to the front being added circa 1930’s, whilst the current owners added the rear extension & conservatory in the 1980’s (during their ownership). We understand the front portion (currently identified as 6A) has been used as a shop in the past, subsequently as Accommodation To-Let – at present the front is semi-divided by a simple doorway being partitioned to allow it to be used independently (separate entrance door to front). Any formal/future use of this area separately would have to be confirmed with the local authority etc.
The property is very convenient for access to Prestwick’s wide ranging local amenities and public transport whilst Prestwick Airport and the A77/A79 are a few minutes drive away.
Particular mention should be made of the lengthy gated private driveway which offers much valued off-street parking for several vehicles. Noting the length of the property stretching rearwards, it is surprising to find a good sized private garden beyond with a useful detached garage.
The accommodation (floorplan is a helpful visual guide to the accommodation layout of this Unique Home) generally comprises - within No 6, reception hall, lounge/dining, breakfasting kitchen, 2 bedrooms (one featuring an en-suite), conservatory and bathroom, whilst the 2 - storey extension currently numbered 6A features - on ground floor a utility style area, whilst on upper level a further bedroom with en-suite. The specification includes both gas central heating and double glazing. EPC - D.
In our view a rare opportunity to acquire a Unique Home, best viewed to fully appreciate its potential & excellent location with the added benefit of extensive private parking and a charming private rear garden area. To View please telephone Black Hay on 01292 283606.

The excellent accommodation of 4 Main Apartments offers flexibility of use as either 1 public/3 bedrooms or 2 plus 2. This particular flat would benefit from modernisation, hence the competitive price will allow the successful purchaser to re-style to their own specification/budget.
In particular the accommodation comprises, reception hall with excellent storage, most appealing rear facing lounge with balcony enjoying west facing aspects over the delightful landscaped gardens, separate kitchen (now "dated" in style), dining room/alternative 3rd bedroom (if required), master bedroom (No 1) with ensuite (again "dated" in style), further double bedroom & main bathroom (featuring a once popular avocado green colour bathroom suite). Generally, excellent storage is available. Heating is older style electric whilst double glazing is featured.
