An excellent opportunity for clients seeking a Character Home with real “potential” to create their own special home, this ever popular Semi Detached Bungalow features 3 Main Apartments - all on-the-level.
Enjoying favoured position within ever popular Prestwick, a short walk from the thriving town centre, whilst the panoramic promenade beckons those looking for seafront walks/views. The property is of broad appeal, having been a comfortable home to its owner over many years, it is fair to say that it does now need general modernisation which is reflected in the competitive price/associated Home Report, allowing scope for the successful buyer to refurbish/restyle to their own budget/taste. It is offered for sale on a “Sold as Seen” basis, noting the mortgage valuation of £145,000 for the property in its current condition.
Internal viewing reveals on-the-level accommodation comprising - entrance porch onto reception hall, lounge to the rear with a separate kitchen & small sun porch off, whilst 2 bedrooms are located to the front & rear respectively. The bathroom is off the reception hall to the front.
The specification includes both gas central heating and double glazing. EPC – D. Attic storage is currently available, perhaps with potential to develop further (subject to planning permission etc). The property is set amidst private gardens which extend from front to rear. A valued private driveway provides off-street parking with a carport & garage positioned to the side/rear (both require attention). On-street parking is also 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 a cycle/car journey. Bungalow Homes remain ever popular with this style (in its existing format) perhaps particularly suiting retired/semi-retired clients/1st-time Buyers or those looking for a holiday “bolthole”, whilst further afield Glasgow based buyers/those relocating from South of the Border continue to seek a change of lifestyle from city to seaside (...and a better work/life balance) with Prestwick fulfilling their hopes of a home in a coastal town.
In our view, a rare opportunity to acquire a desirable Semi Detached Bungalow offering character/charm and genuine potential. To view, please telephone BLACK HAY ESTATE AGENTS direct on 01292 283606. The Home Report is available to view here exclusively on our blackhay.co.uk website.

*NEW to Market - Available to View Now* A superb opportunity to acquire a desirable Traditional Cottage Style Bungalow set amidst an attractive terrace of similar style homes, within highly popular Prestwick, sought after for its vibrant town centre and proximity to the sweeping seafront/promenade. This absolutely charming home is deceptive externally, internal viewing reveals extended on-the-level accommodation of 3 Main Apartments with the rear facing apartments enjoying garden views/and access from the featured patio doors. The accommodation offers flexibility of use and although used by the owner as 2 public/1 bedroom, it easily reverts to 1 public/2 bedroom.
The accommodation stretches rearwards and is on-the-level with an undeveloped attic area …comprising, welcoming reception hall with walk-in storage/cloaks cupboard concealing the access hatch to the attic area, a spacious bay windowed “master” bedroom to the front (No 1), centrally positioned is a most appealing lounge/dining with patio door to garden, an older style yet very neatly presented kitchen is accessed from the lounge/dining (the kitchen also has a rear door to the garden), a short corridor hall leading from the kitchen has a door to the side opening onto the older style bathroom, whilst ahead a final door opens onto the rear bedroom (No 2) – currently a comfortable living room, again with patio door to garden.
The specification includes both gas central heating & double glazing. EPC – D. A private garden area is featured to the front, partly accommodating a private driveway for off-street parking whilst the rear garden invites one to relax or potter outdoors with 3 access points from the house. A communal pathway running along the rear boundaries of these terraced properties provides separate access for moving wheelie bins (details to be confirmed from title deeds). On-street parking is also available. (noting that some adjacent properties appear to have developed their shaped attic areas however planning permission etc would be required and the shape of this area, in our opinion, limits development to a degree)
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 Briarhill 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!
In our view… the competitive price does reflect that the property would benefit from modernisation however it has clearly been a much loved & very comfortable home to its owner. There is no doubt that the new owner/s will be purchasing a Charming Home which they can re-style to suit their taste/budget …and comfortably enjoy in the years to come.
To view, please telephone BLACK HAY ESTATE AGENTS direct on 01292 283606. The Home Report is available to view exclusively on our blackhay.co.uk website. The Floorplan & Room Dimensions will be available/uploaded soon. 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.
