Rarely available, semi-rural Detached Bungalow with substantial Detached Outbuilding, enjoying picturesque countryside views. This highly desirable property offers huge potential, noting that it requires complete renovation however the opportunities which both the Bungalow & Outbuilding offer will appeal to the buyer seeking a real opportunity to create a very special home. The Detached Outbuilding has immense appeal whether as a substantial garage or workshop (or indeed a combination thereof), perhaps further residential development beckons however this would be subject to acquiring planning permission etc.
The property sits just off a semi-rural road on the outskirts of Crosshouse/Knockentiber, Kilmarnock with mixed style country style properties dotted along the road. Access is via a central rough driveway with the Bungalow to the left and the Outbuilding ahead to the right. Set within its own lightly bounded garden grounds (there is/are no additional land/fields included) with the rear backing onto wonderful open countryside.
The photos/virtual tour provide a clear impression of the very basic internal condition of the property however the potential remains clear noting the Home Report Mortgage Value of £160,000 for the property in its current condition. The property is offered for sale “Sold as Seen” with no warranties/guarantees.
Internal viewing of the bungalow confirms on-the-level accommodation comprising, corridor style reception hall with main door entrance from the front elevation, rectangular shaped lounge to the front with separate kitchen off whilst there is also a small breakfasting room/study located off the kitchen (door from kitchen to garden), two bedrooms are provided together with the bathroom. An undeveloped attic area is available. Electric heating is provided. Double glazing is featured. EPC - F. We are advised that there is mains power & water whilst waste is via a septic tank (location to be confirmed) – details to be confirmed.
The substantial Detached Outbuilding is brick wall with pitched roof construction. A central garage style door provides access, opening onto an expansive concrete base, approx’ rectangular size measures 15’6” deep by 33’6” wide with a floor to inner ridge height of approx. 14’. As aforementioned …it offers a wide variety of uses, noting some development ideas may require planning permission from the local authority.
Graeme Lumsden, Director/Valuer of BLACK HAY ESTATE AGENTS comments…
“ Every picture tells a story …No 7 Greenhill Holding has lost its way over the years and now needs to be brought into the 21st century however its potential burns very brightly.
The enthusiastic Buyer certainly needs to consider the works required however the opportunity to secure this type of property in this semi-rural yet convenient location is exceptionally rare.
The finished project will hopefully exceed its potential and bring huge pleasure to the successful Buyer/s. Personally I would love to see the New No 7 and see if it measures up to how I imagine it could look …it’s a fabulous opportunity! “

This most appealing home is deceptive externally, internally viewing reveals extended on-the-level accommodation of 4 Main Apartments with the added benefit of a private driveway & detached garage. The accommodation is better suited to use as 2 public & 2 bedrooms (rather than as 3 bedroom/1 public).
The well proportioned accommodation comprises, T-shaped reception hall, most appealing bay windowed lounge (alternative 3rd bedroom if absolutely required), dining/family room with access from here to a separate modern style kitchen (door from here to garden), 2 double bedrooms and bathroom (bath replaced with shower cubicle).

A unique Traditional Flat retaining considerable character, enjoying favoured ground floor position within most appealing Traditional Sandstone Terrace, with No 19 having been re-slated in 2017, comprising 4 flats - 2 on each level. Bellevue Crescent is a highly regarded residential locale of mixed style period homes, reminiscent in style/location to Glasgow's desirable "West End", yet at a much more competitive price ...and with Ayr's sweeping promenade/seafront within walking distance.
Particular mention should be made of the unique nature of the accommodation featured - we are advised that the original "Washhouse" which served the common building was acquired by this flat circa 1930's, now utilised as the breakfasting/kitchen, uniquely adding to its larger proportioned accommodation. Further focal points include the provision of a private "back door" onto its private rear garden area together with a useful "sun-porch" and a valued garage (smaller size - potential buyers are advised to check whether their vehicle would fit).
Internal viewing reveals most appealing accommodation of 4 Main Apartments - in particular, a welcoming reception hall, impressive bay windowed formal lounge to the front with attractive outlook, separate dining/family room which could be utilised as a 3rd bedroom if required, breakfasting/kitchen (within original wash-house - note angular shape & part split-level) with a door leading to a useful sun-porch overlooking the rear garden, 2 bedrooms (to front & rear respectively) and bathroom.
The specification includes both gas central heating & double glazing. EPC - E. The stone chipped front garden area is private to this property whilst the main garden area pictured to the rear is also private to this property (exact details to be confirmed from title deeds along with any right of access for other owners etc). A private external cellar is provided whilst we understand there is partial use available of a small former wash-house (shared with other owners). A common pathway to the rear provides access to the garage which is also private to this property, this also being accessible from the lane running parallel to the rear of Bellevue Crescent. On-street parking is available (residents permit can be purchased at annual cost from the local council).
In our view... A superb opportunity to acquire a charming Traditional Flat, unique with its larger layout/configuration, with the added benefit of its own private rear door, gardens and a garage. It would benefit from modernisation however the competitive price allows scope for the successful purchaser to re-style to their own budget/specification.
