This stylish home was refurbished by the present owners and is ready to move in and enjoy. The development is professionally managed with the appointed factors ensuring consistent presentation/maintenance which is clearly evident as one enters the grounds of Fairfield Park. Entry is via a communal main door security entrance which leads onto a welcoming & notably more spacious (than typical new-build developments today) residents reception hall with either stair or elevator access to the equally spacious 1st floor communal hallway, off which No 61 is accessed.

A wide array of local amenities are accessible whilst the A77/A79 provides links north or south. Public transport including a regular train service from Ayr is available whilst Prestwick Airport is within easy travelling distance. Ayrshire is famed for its Golf Courses, historical connection with “the Poet” Robert Burns and many worthy historical attractions. Graeme Lumsden, Director/Valuer of BLACK HAY Estate Agents comments… “ Notwithstanding my 39 Years in the Property Industry and the thousands of properties sold on behalf of my clients ...I have also been fortunate to own/live in quite an array of different properties/locations over the years …Fairfield Park reminds me of Luxury Style Flats in Glasgow where I happily lived for a number of years. The external space of this development one would rarely witness today on similar New-Build Flats as the developers/builders simply cannot resist the lure of profit/more properties versus the unseen value that comes with living amidst a development that actually breathes because of the space in which it is set. Add to that an elevator & the magical sea view aspects (neither of which I had in Glasgow), encouraging one to embrace promenade walks on the best of days or wrap up for those bracing autumn/winter walks where one leans into the wind & rain yet enjoys the exhilaration that only a wild sea can deliver. The sale of No 61 Fairfield Park is a rare opportunity to acquire a True Sea View Luxury Flat which features well proportioned 5 Main Apartment accommodation (reminiscent of many 5 Apartment on-the-level Detached Bungalows), either ready to move-in, or for its new owners to re-style to their own spec’/budget. This most appealing Flat retains the many benefits & welcome convenience that flat living provides …and when the New Owners want to do something/or go somewhere else, simply lock up & leave …that’s the magic of flat living! ”

* NEW to Market - Available to View Now * These well presented former Offices are sited within an attractive Traditional Sandstone fronted Building sited above commercial premises on Prestwick’s thriving main street/town centre. With a central security door entry (between the ground floor premises), an internal staircase leads to the upper landing off which a private main door provides access into the main reception hall. The current layout/accommodation comprises 5 main apartments, in particular 2 separate bay windowed rooms (Nos 1 & 3) to the front with a further central room (No 2), whilst to the rear, 2 further rooms (Nos 4 & 5) plus a small kitchenette & bathroom. The specification includes gas central heating. Attic storage is available and we understand that the attic level/area may well be private to this flat however potential buyers are advised to confirm the legal position (regarding the attic) with their solicitor. The “status” of the attic area does not form part of the value of the property at this time. The apportionment of common charges shared between the building’s owners (or tenants) is still to be formally confirmed. Internal viewing confirms both the well proportioned rooms/apartments together with the high standard of presentation. We are advised by the owner/seller that preliminary discussions with South Ayrshire Council were positive regarding the possibility of “Change of Use” to residential (from office use) however at this early stage there is no formal confirmation therefore the property is “Sold as Seen” with the value reflecting its current office use status. Prestwick remains Ayrshire’s “property hotspot”, with its well established mixed main street shopping/restaurants/amenities, whilst the delightful/sweeping promenade & seafront are within walking distance. Public transport includes bus & train. Prestwick Airport is nearby whilst the property is also convenient for access to the A77/A78. Of broad appeal… from a commercial perspective one can see the success of the town centre with a high percentage of occupied premises whilst from a residential perspective Prestwick is valued by local buyers 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. In our view, this well presented property is appealing both in its current format for business use or offers flexibility of use, subject to formal confirmation with South Ayrshire Council. In addition there is perhaps a thought towards change of use to residential in which case that will attract a different type of buyer, however South Ayrshire Council would need to approve residential use.
