* NEW to Market - Available to View Now * An excellent opportunity to acquire a rarely available End Terrace 2 Bedroom Bungalow, within favoured Prestwick residential locale. The property is set within a corner sited short terrace of only 3 homes, benefitting from private gardens to the front & rear (noting that the existing “ramp” access to the front can be removed although it is the Seller’s intention to leave it in place as part of the sale).
The property has been a comfortable/much loved home to its owner over many years however the successful purchaser may choose to modernise to suit their own style/budget, the competitive price allowing scope for such upgrading. Noting the Home Report Mortgage Valuation figure of £145,000 for the property as presented.
The accommodation comprises, entrance hall, spacious lounge to the front, separate kitchen to the rear (accessed via door from the lounge) with external door leading to the rear garden, 2 double bedrooms are positioned to the front & rear respectively whilst a “Wet Room” style bathroom is off the hallway (this having been fitted to assist the current owner). The attic area offers additional storage.
The specification includes both gas central heating and double glazing. EPC – D. The property is set amidst corner gardens, mainly lawned to the rear whilst the front is stone chipped for ease of maintenance with the aforementioned access ramp in place. On-street parking is usually available.
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 cycle/car journey. Public transport includes bus & train. Prestwick Airport is nearby whilst the property is also convenient for access to the A77/A78. Bungalow Style Homes remain ever popular, of broad appeal, valued locally particularly by retired/semi-retired clients or 1st-time Buyers, whilst further afield they attract 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… a very desirable and competitively priced home with easy potential for those wishing to create their own special home.

*NEW to Market - Available to View Now* A superb opportunity for the skilled “DIY’er” or those seeking a home which they can have professionally upgraded to their own style/budget …this very desirable “Attached” Traditional Red Sandstone fronted Bungalow is located within highly popular Prestwick, sought after for its vibrant town centre and proximity to the sweeping seafront/promenade.
This appealing home requires modernisation, notably offered for sale on a “Sold as Seen” basis following internal damage from a burst pipe, however the competitive price easily accommodates future refurbishment works.
Deceptive externally, internal viewing reveals 5 Main Apartments over 2 levels with the added benefit of a detached garage to the rear. The accommodation is best suited to use as 2 public (ground floor) & 3 bedrooms (on the upper level) …however one of the ground floor apartments has been utilised as an additional bedroom in the past.
Reading the Home Report reflects that the property has been left in a “shell like” state following the water damage however some considerable time has elapsed since and the property is presented dry with exposed timbers in the kitchen ceiling which was the main area of damage. The Sellers could have chosen to refurbish the property and then marketed at a substantial premium to its current price however the decision was made to offer the property for sale “as-seen” to allow the successful purchaser the opportunity to re-style to their own specification/budget.
The accommodation is accessed via a side main door entrance onto the reception hall which leads onto the ground floor apartments whilst a substantial staircase leads to the upper hallway. In particular, on ground floor – bay windowed lounge, separate larger dining/family room, separate kitchen with porch off. On the upper level, 3 bedrooms – the 2 larger “dormer windowed” bedrooms to the front (Nos 1 & 2) with a smaller 3rd bedroom to the rear whilst the bathroom is located off the upper hallway.
The specification includes both gas central heating & double glazing however please note the gas central heating system is untested/sold-as-seen. EPC – D. Private gardens are featured to the front & rear, with the rear requiring attention. A lane style driveway to the rear leads to a detached garage whilst on-street parking is also available.
The Home Report notes a Mortgage Valuation for the property (in its present unrefurbished condition) of £155,000. The “Market Value” is expected to be higher. Please note once again that the property is “Sold-as-Seen” with no guarantees or warranties provided (we would advise for instance that the electrical wiring is further safety tested/inspected *replaced in areas perhaps* even although there has been considerable drying out time).
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 Whinfield 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!
The property remains very desirable and will no doubt appeal to the enthusiastic purchaser who embraces the unique opportunity this Charming Home provides…
To view, please telephone BLACK HAY ESTATE AGENTS direct on 01292 283606. The Home Report will be available to view here soon exclusively on our blackhay.co.uk website. If you wish to discuss your interest in this particular property - please get in touch with our Estate Agency Director/Valuer Graeme Lumsden (one of Scotland’s most experienced estate agents with 35 years in the property industry) …on 01292 283606.

In our view… a rare opportunity to acquire a very desirable sea view home which combines its wonderful location with generous/flexible accommodation. The changing colour/movement generated by a seascape together with the Isle of Arran on the horizon will no doubt command the attention of the successful purchaser …as it has for the current owners who have a myriad of spectacular sunset views from their home which are quite magical.
