An excellent opportunity for the 1st-time buyer or those seeking their 1st family home, to acquire an ever popular End Terrace Villa which occupies a very desirable position on Kirkwood Place which is only 1 street back from Girvan’s sweeping beachfront, therefore one can quite literally be walking the seafront in less than a minute.
Girvan is a popular seafront town on the south west coast of Scotland, midway between Ayr & Stranraer, on route from Ayr passing the world famous Trump Turnberry Golf Resort, with the A77 providing a convenient link north & south whilst Dumfries & Galloway/the A75 are also accessible. Girvan enjoys its iconic view of the small island of “Ailsa Craig” (famous for its granite used in curling stones), visible from the seafront whilst from the upper window of this particular property one can catch a partial view of that very iconic island on the horizon. Local shopping/schooling/amenities & public transport (incl’ bus & train) are available.
The property is well presented having been modernised by its present owners, comprising on ground floor, reception hall, lounge, stylish open-plan dining/kitchen with door to gardens, whilst on upper level, 2 bedrooms & useful 3rd/box-style bedroom with a modern “wet-room” style bathroom off the upper hallway (walk-in shower rather than bath). Attic storage is available. EPC – C. Both gas central heating & double glazing are featured. Gardens are provided to the front, side & rear whilst on-street parking is available nearby.
In our view… “ a wonderful opportunity to acquire a starter-style home which combines excellent accommodation/value with a modern specification …with perhaps its star attraction being its location, literally less than a minute from the seafront, encouraging one to enjoy beach walks on the best of sunny days or those wild winter days where the white horses race inshore. “

Strictly offered For Sale to the Cash Buyer only. This property is NOT currently suitable for a Mortgage. Please DO NOT enquire or ask to view the property if you require a mortgage (Thank You for your co-operation in advance).
The particular property remains desirable due to its Semi Detached Bungalow style, it’s favoured Prestwick location and the opportunity it affords the knowledgeable purchaser with access to cash only funding. Owned & occupied for many decades by the same owner (circa 80 years) the property displays glimpses of its original character with the traditional panelled internal doors, picture rails and a fine fireplace with matching semi-glazed alcove cupboards in the lounge.
The photographs and “Virtual Tour” (available to view only on our blackhay.co.uk website – please ensure you view this internal tour before arranging a viewing) clearly show that the property has suffered from a lack of internal maintenance/modernisation as its owner lived through the decades. However, it undoubtedly offers the successful purchaser an opportunity to bring the property up-to-date in the usual fashion – kitchen/bathroom/electrics/windows/decor etc …with the caveat of undertaking building works to deal with the issue that appears to cast doubt over its “Suitable for Mortgage Status”. A brief “Engineers Report” summarises that external cracking suggests there may be an issue with the internal “wall ties” corroding – in essence a further inspection is recommended to confirm this and initial informal discussions with a “trusted builder” have outlined the likely works involved/potential costs. The Sellers have opted to make an “allowance” against the stated Home Report value of £120,000 (noting the Surveyor clearly highlights that value is subject to an Engineers Report stating that the potential structure issues have been resolved to a level where the property would qualify for mortgage status on normal lending terms).
So… the property is not suitable for the novice DIY’er however it remains desirable and an opportunity for a knowledgeable purchaser (as previously stated). The current accommodation comprises, reception hall, characterful bay windowed lounge, separate kitchen, 2 bedrooms and bathroom. An undeveloped attic is featured. The gardens have been tidied to an extent however will require more work.
Clearly the property is “Sold as Seen”. Cash Purchaser is the ONLY option.
Graeme Lumsden, Director/Valuer of BLACK HAY Estate Agents comments… “After 35 years in the property industry I have sold a myriad of property styles, from walk-in condition to derelict. This particular property doesn’t phase me, however I will not be the buyer. Understandably we are not in a position to answer speculative questions from speculative buyers.
If you are a serious Cash Buyer and wish to discuss matters with a view to making an acceptable offer then we are happy to engage. The Sellers may accept a sole offer or they may look at the option of a “Closing Date” – no decision has been made and the sale progress will be continually reviewed.
Ultimately it will solely be the buyer’s decision as to whether they proceed with their particular interest in this property. The information/opinions stated are an “overview” only and any potential buyer must satisfy themselves whether this particular property is suitable for them – it is essential that they consult in detail with their solicitor prior to making an offer for this property, noting again that only Cash Buyers will be considered and the property will be Sold as Seen with No Guarantee or Warranty whatsoever.”
To view, please telephone BLACK HAY ESTATE AGENTS direct on 01292 283606 (after you have viewed the “Virtual Tour” at blackhay.co.uk). Viewings will be limited in accordance with Government Covid Guidlines and proof of Cash Buyer status may be required in advance. The Home Report will be available to view here exclusively on our blackhay.co.uk website. If you wish to discuss your interest as a Cash Buyer only in this particular property (noting all the previous information re “serious buyers only”) - please get in touch with our Estate Agency Director/Valuer Graeme Lumsden on 01292 283606.
We hope you appreciate we are trying to be informative/helpful by clarifying matters in advance with regard to Cash Buyers, speculative enquiries etc.
