Doonview Gardens, Doonfoot – A rare opportunity to purchase an attractively styled Modern Detached Luxury Villa by renowned Bryant Homes, featuring highly desirable 8 Main Apartment family accommodation, enjoying favourable setting within sought after Residential Development situated on the outskirts of Ayr, itself on the South West Coast of Scotland.
Well proportioned apartments are featured over 2 levels, easily accommodating a growing family. Larger style Detached Villas are particularly popular with local buyers looking to upsize, with Glasgow buyers who continue to re-locate from city to the coast/seaside for a more relaxed lifestyle/work balance, whilst clients re-locating from England to Scotland remain strong contenders for larger modern luxury style homes. The well proportioned apartments are laid out over 2 levels, offering flexibility as required – normally utilised as 3 Public/5 Bedrooms however the current owners are working from home and make use of 2 of the bedrooms as separate “home offices”. If needed, the integral double garage also allows further expansion within the footprint of the existing property – subject to required planning permission etc.
Internal viewing reveals a comfortable & adaptable family home, comprising on the ground floor, a welcoming reception hall with useful “downstairs” wc off, a spacious bay windowed lounge to the rear, a separate dining room to the front, whilst to the rear a semi open-plan style dining/breakfasting room (patio doors from here onto private/screened rear gardens) with feature archway opening onto a larger fitted kitchen which has a welcome separate utility room (access from here to the integral double garage), bedroom No 5 (currently a home office - alternatively a “guest bedroom” or informal tv-room) is situated to the front.
A discreetly positioned staircase from the reception hall leads to the upper hallway which provides access to 4 bedrooms & 3 bathrooms (which should easily accommodate the demanding growing family), the “master” bedroom No 1 being positioned above the garage – on this occasion the owners have surrendered use of this the largest bedroom to their children as it doubles as a wonderful playroom area due to its size – with its own en-suite bathroom, 2 further bedrooms (Nos 2 & 3) are located to the front with a convenient linked “Jack & Jill” bathroom enabling en-suite use by either bedroom whilst bedroom No 4, located to the rear, serves as a comfortable main bedroom with its own en-suite.
The specification includes both gas central heating and double glazing. Private gardens are featured to the front & rear, neatly presented/landscaped with the rear screened for privacy providing a safe/enclosed child-friendly play area or outdoor space in which to relax on better weather days. The private driveway provides dual off-street parking whilst also leading to a much-valued integral double garage which provides secure parking/storage.
In our view, genuinely desirable… of real appeal to those seeking a larger Modern Luxury Home able to accommodate an existing or growing family …yet not one which is “shoe-horned” along with repetitively styled homes which unimaginative builders seem happy to build. This particular Bryant Homes development combines a sense of more space with a mix of property styles which make it a much more pleasing development in which to live. To discuss your interest in No 3 Doonview Gardens please contact Graeme Lumsden, our Director/Valuer, who is handling this particular sale – 01292 283606 or gpl@blackhay.co.uk Internal Viewing is invited by contacting BLACK HAY ESTATE AGENTS on 01292 283606.

A rare opportunity to acquire a Traditional Town Flat amidst Edinburgh’s highly desirable “Comely Bank”, with its charming cobbled streets harking back to times past. Occupying second floor within an attractive Blonde Sandstone Tenement building this desirable flat will be of broad appeal, conveniently located for access across Edinburgh.
The well proportioned accommodation comprises, reception hall, bay windowed lounge to the front with pleasing outlook, separate dining/kitchen to the rear, two bedrooms (to the front & rear respectively) whilst the bathroom is located off the reception hall. The property is neatly presented, although the successful purchaser will very likely choose to update to their own style/specification.
There is potential to develop/reconfigure the accommodation (at the new owners expense), subject to acquiring the neccessary planning permission/building warrant etc. The larger walk-in cupboard (which has been used as a small "internal" study) & adjacent hall cupboard offer the possibility of being altered/linked with the adjoining dining recess to form an additional room - perhaps an internal kitchen being formed to allow the existing kitchen to become a 3rd bedroom etc.
Gas central heating is featured. EPC – C. We are advised the property is self-factored. On-street parking is available within a controlled parking zone. There is a communal security door entry system. Communal gardens are located to the rear.
Edinburgh combines its rich history with a vibrant/bustling city featuring a vast array of shopping, bars, restaurants, fine dining, historic attractions, educational institutes together with an extensive public transport network …to name but a few. Residents and tourists actively enjoy city living or holiday visits alike, as befitting its status as Scotland’s Capital. Residential property continues to perform positively with Traditional Town Flats in demand and locations such as “Comely Bank” clearly desirable.

Rarely available within desirable edge of Town Centre locale, "ARCH COTTAGE" .... a Charming Detached Chalet Style Bungalow nestling in Bellevue Lane (just off Bellevue Crescent), enjoying the much valued benefit of its own private gated driveway for convenient parking & a detached garage.
ARCH COTTAGE has been a happy home for its present owners over a number of years with its convenient/flexible 6 Main Apartment Accommodation featured over 2 levels, currently comprising 3 public rooms on the ground floor with 3 bedrooms on the upper floor. In addition a good sized breakfasting kitchen with separate/useful utility room (wc off) is located to the rear of the ground floor, whilst the main bathroom and an en-suite (off the "master" bedroom - No 1) are situated on the upper level.
Externally an easily maintained/neatly presented garden/amenity area is featured with a very private enclosed lawned garden being most inviting, whilst monobloc/paving form the remaining area. A sheltered patio area is accessed just off the family room.
The "Bellevue" area is well established with a fine array/mix of traditional period homes whilst ARCH COTTAGE blends in well with its "Cottage" (albeit modern) style.
In our opinion this is indeed the classic "rare opportunity" to acquire a very desirable Detached 6 Apartment Home in an undoubtedly favoured/convenient locale. It benefits from its easily missed position nestling in Bellevue Lane and its modern build brings an easier level of maintenance and more time to enjoy its Cottage Style character. The Home Report is positive with a mortgage value in excess of the asking price.
