TREVONA - enjoying favoured Cambusdoon Drive address, one of Alloway's most highly regarded residential locales, where one can appreciate individually styled homes from their wider "Avenue" setting.
This desirable home will perhaps be of particular appeal to the client seeking a Detached Bungalow style home which combines flexibility of use in terms of the accommodation, presently featured over two levels, & the option to entertain using its well-proportioned apartments - a substantial Reception Hall, Lounge & Dining Room being particular highlights which capture one's attention.
Trevona has been a much loved home for its present owner however it would now benefit from modernisation, hence the competitive price allowing scope for the successful purchaser to re-spec' to their own style/budget. Some buyers may be attracted with Trevona's development potential, as seen with some nearby homes/gardens which have been extensively redeveloped - subject to the required planning permission etc.
The property retains considerable character & charm with a welcoming/comfortable feel from its well-proportioned accommodation which comprises - ground floor, reception hall, lounge, dining room, kitchen, 2 bedrooms, main bathroom (shower room adj'), utility area, sun/garden room. Whilst on upper level, 2 very spacious bedrooms (Nos 3 & 4) which offer flexibility of use (one could envisage an upper living/family room enjoying picturesque garden views) whilst a central upper bathroom serves these bedrooms.
The current specification includes gas central heating whilst glazing is predominately older style single, some secondary glazing. An attached double garage (with integral access) sits beyond the circular private driveway. The private gardens are well established with Trevona centrally positioned on the plot to enjoy a sizable area both to the front & rear.
Graeme Lumsden, Director/Valuer of BLACK HAY Estate Agents comments - "Celebrating my 30 Years within the estate agency industry I still take great joy from marketing a home which has clearly been much loved & enjoyed by its owner.
Trevona ticks many of the boxes for those more demanding buyers who are searching for a quality home in this particular price range… however it also offers the successful purchaser the opportunity perhaps to add their particular character into Trevona and take it forward through the next several decades, whether by re-styling or redeveloping.
Whatever the New Owner chooses to do they will appreciate that they begin with what has clearly been a quality home in one of Alloway/Ayr's most highly regarded locales."

From the hallway, access onto the remaining ground floor apartments whilst a discretely positioned staircase provides access to the upper level. A useful small understair utility together with a stylish separate "downstairs" shower room/wc are located off the reception hall.

Two spacious double bedrooms are featured (Nos 1 & 2, to the front & rear respectively) with No 2 currently being used as a "craft/hobby room".
As one moves through to the rear extension, the hugely appealing open-plan breakfasting kitchen/dining/living room features extensive windowing including full width bi-fold doors which open or closed provide a striking focal point as the subtle mixed colour slate floor extends from within to the elevated external sun terrace which overlooks the still larger sized gardens. The kitchen is fitted with very stylish high quality floor/wall cabinets, integrated appliances and a centrepiece breakfasting island whilst both the dining & living room areas are on an L-shape adjacent - this layout encouraging family gatherings or entertaining with friends. On the upper level, 2 further double bedrooms are provided (Nos 3 & 4) whilst a stylish central bathroom serves this level.
The specification includes both gas central heating and double glazing. EPC - D. Neatly presented private gardens are provided to the front & rear, the front easily maintained with a gated pathway to the side leading to the rear - the rear of larger size, mainly lawned with stone boundary walls, useful outbuildings provide valued external storage. The elevated sun terrace projects from the rear extension whilst a further paved patio area is situated to the side, adjacent to the side entrance/exit door.
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, valued locally by family buyers in particular, together with couples & retired/semi-retired clients, whilst further afield of interest 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, BLACK HAY Estate Agency Director/Valuer comments... " Even after 36 Years in the estate agency industry I know that I am blessed to do the job that I do ...helping home sellers & buyers on their property journey through their lives.
The added bonus is also visiting/valuing & indeed selling all sorts of different styles/values of home ...including some very Special Homes which instantly catch my attention, indeed it can be hard not to imagine myself buying/living in a particular home.
The Dhorlin is one such home, a spectacular home, yet for me it's the magical combination of the subtle traditional exterior which conceals the spectacular contemporary interior, one which can accommodate couples or families and offers sought after flexibility ...one that you won't want to leave when you come home ...a Special Home that the successful purchaser should be over the moon to own!
