With its own private main door entrance to the front and a small private garden area to the rear, this charming home is of broad appeal, whether as main residence, holiday “bolthole” (which it has been for the current owner) or perhaps the buy-to-let/air bnb investor seeking an investment property for both income & potential capital growth.

Much valued character is retained with traditional features including cornicing & fine panelled apartment doors.

*NEW to Market - Available to View Now* Easily missed within its cul de sac just off Marina Road, this Modern Style Detached Bungalow would normally be particularly sought after due to its near seafront location, however in this instance every picture does indeed tell a story …on this occasion it’s clear that the property does require modernisation both internally/externally, however the competitive price allows scope for the successful purchaser to re-style to their own taste/budget.
The property was privately built new for its current & only owner, latterly however the maintenance/upkeep has fallen behind, hence the property is now offered for sale on a “Sold as Seen” basis. The property will likely be of broad appeal to a range of buyers and one can easily envisage how the successful purchaser will enhance both the property and its value following modernisation.
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 short cycle/car journey. Bungalow Homes of this style are much in demand and although of broad appeal are valued particularly by retired/semi retired clients & 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.
Access is via a main door entrance & vestibule to the front of the property, then opening onto a very spacious L-shaped lounge/dining which one can imagine being the focal point following refurbishment, a corridor style hallway off leads onto the kitchen, 2 bedrooms and bathroom.
A gas supply/gas central heating system is present however this is untested & sold-as-seen. There is an untested solid-fuel fire in the lounge/dining, again sold-as-seen. EPC – D. Private gardens are featured however these clearly will require considerable attention, noting that there is disused caravan in the rear garden and this will be left for the new owner to deal with/remove. Parking is available off-street within the driveway to the side of the property.
Graeme Lumsden, Director/Valuer of BLACK HAY Estate Agents comments…
“ With 35 years working in the property industry across Scotland, that iconic phrase location, location & location remains one of the key factors about a particular property’s desirability. In addition, post-lockdown has delivered a much increased flow of buyers who yearn for a more relaxed style of living, particularly moving from bustling city life in Glasgow to a coastal location that offers relaxing seafront/beach walks, encouraging one to enjoy the outdoor life.
In my view… although 37A Marina Road is clearly a challenge, it is equally an opportunity to acquire a Detached Bungalow with real potential in a highly favoured near seafront location. One can easily imagine how it will be transformed by the successful buyer into a comfortable home from which to enjoy the thriving coastal town of Prestwick. “
