* NEW to Market - Available to View Now * Enjoying an enviable corner site amidst picturesque private gardens, “Braemar” is a Charming Traditional Detached Bungalow, rarely available within most admired locale, just off St Quivox Road, convenient for Prestwick’s thriving town centre.
Most appealing with its gated corner driveway providing much valued private parking and access to the detached garage. Internally, the flexible 4 Main Apartment Accommodation is on-the-level with the attic area offering sought after development potential (subject to the required planning permission etc).
Internal viewing reveals a comfortable home which has been recently refreshed by the current owners - entered via central main door onto a welcoming reception hall which provides access to the remaining apartments, whilst a concealed ladder style wooden staircase (hall cupboard) leads to the floored/partially lined attic area. The lounge and refitted kitchen - with attractive conservatory off are located to the rear together with bedroom No 3, whilst to the front, 2 further bedrooms (Nos 1 & 2) – either of which could revert to a 2nd public room (dining or family room), if preferred. A stylish modern bathroom (bath replaced with shower cubicle) is located off the reception hall.
The specification includes both gas central heating and double glazing. EPC - D. The attic is floored/partially lined, currently providing excellent additional storage with obvious development potential, if required.

The private driveway provides off-street parking for several vehicles whilst also leading to a detached garage. On-street parking is also available.
Prestwick remains very popular with its thriving town centre and coastal location. With Glasgow approx’ 30 miles away Prestwick properties are particularly popular with Glasgow based buyers relocating (knowing the value of these style of homes in Glasgow!) …those commuting to Glasgow either by car (the A77 easily accessible from Prestwick) or by the popular train/bus service from Prestwick to Glasgow …and of course buyers seeking Bungalow Homes within walking distance of Prestwick’s sweeping seafront.
In our view ...an exceptionally rare opportunity to acquire a desirable Detached Bungalow set amidst charming private gardens, enjoying an enviable location.

* NEW to Market - Available to View Now * Tucked quietly behind Troon’s revered South Beach, this highly desirable Detached Bungalow nestles in South Beach Lane, adjacent to St Ninians Church. Easily missed with its discreet timber gate access from the lane whilst a private driveway provides valued off-lane parking and leads to an attached tandem garage. This charming home is deceptive externally, internal viewing revealing spacious accommodation over 2 levels …all attractively set within private gardens.
The accommodation comprises on ground floor, entrance vestibule which leads onto the dining style hall, larger size formal lounge to the front with patio doors, moving rearwards – a breakfasting style kitchen, “master” bedroom (No 1) with inviting conservatory off, main bathroom with modern style fitments (shower cubicle instead of bath), useful utility room. A staircase from the dining hall leads to the upper hallway which leads to very spacious additional bedrooms – Nos 2 & 3 to the front & rear respectively with No 2 featuring excellent fitted wardrobe storage adjacent to the en-suite which provides independent shower/wc facilities on the upper level.
The specification includes both gas central heating & double glazing. EPC – D. The property is set amidst mature private gardens, walled for privacy with gated access either from the lane or the private driveway. The driveway should comfortably accommodate 2 cars whilst also leading to the attached tandem garage which also has integral access to the property.
Troon, on Ayrshire's sweeping coastline, is a highly favoured "Seaside Town" with its sweeping seafront/promenade, also notable for its world renowned golf course (with the recent Open Golf Tournament having been played at Royal Troon Golf Course), also featuring its own bustling marina. Naturally Troon is of broad appeal, popular with locals and commuters alike, Glasgow Buyers particularly favouring its wonderful seafront location, only approx' 35 minutes commute by car from Glasgow City Centre (both train & bus services aid those commuting) whilst Edinburgh/East Coast Buyers favour the better weather of Troon on the West Coast. The property is very convenient for seafront/beach access and the town centre with its broad array of shopping, restaurants/bars & amenities. Both the A77/A79 are easily accessible by car. Prestwick Airport is a few miles away.
In our view… a very rare opportunity to acquire a desirable Detached Bungalow which discreetly nestles just off revered “South Beach”. The re-location from city to seaside continues whether for those commuting or perhaps retired/looking towards retirement, Troon undoubtedly provides a very attractive option for clients to re-locate whilst local buyers continue to favour Bungalow style homes near the seafront.

Prestwick and its sweeping seafront are within easy reach or one can travel beyond in either direction to Troon or Ayr to enjoy their seafront promenades. Convenience shopping is available within Monkton itself. An excellent modern Primary School is within walking distance. Ayrshire is of course also famed for its world renowned golf courses and there is also a marina in Troon.

Graeme Lumsden, Director of BLACK HAY ESTATE AGENTS comments…
During my 4 decades within the estate agency industry I have been blessed to play a part in my clients journey’s along the property ladder, so many thousands I have lost count …from 1st-time buyer to retirement & indeed beyond.
Every so often a “magical” home appears, it may be its special character or features, the location, wonderful views or rarity …interestingly I also find that homes speak silently of their owners and the lives they have lived.
As I arrived at Glenappin, my heart was captured by the spectacular views and the comfortable accommodation which wrapped itself around me …it spoke silently & very warmly of the owners who clearly loved their home & loved their family time together, over nearly 6 decades …I thought how blessed they were to live in Glenappin.
Perhaps if they wrote a “Property Love Letter” for the New Owners of Glenappin, it may simply read… “ We loved our Home for almost 6 decades, with its spectacular setting & magical views ...and we still enjoy the wonderful memories created there. We hope you love creating your own memories. ”

* Available to View Now * An excellent opportunity to acquire a continually sought after Traditional Detached Bungalow within favoured Seafield, a short walk from Ayr’s sweeping promenade/seafront. A comfortable home to its owners over many years, it is fair to say the property would benefit from modernisation, however the competitive price reflects its “dated” condition whilst allowing scope for the successful purchaser to re-style to their own specification/budget.
The property/gardens are both neatly presented and one can appreciate that the owners have maintained the property to a good standard. Of particular appeal to some buyers, the undeveloped attic which offers further potential to create additional accommodation – subject to acquiring the necessary planning permission etc.
The accommodation is all on-the-level, comprising 4 Main Apartments which offer flexibility of use – either as 2 public/2 bedrooms or 1 public/3 bedrooms. In particular, main door entrance to the front with vestibule onto a welcoming reception hall, most appealing lounge to the front, extended kitchen to the rear with door to garden, 3 bedrooms (1 to front/2 to rear) – one of which (No 16) has been utilised as a dining/living room, the bathroom is located off the reception hall.
The specification includes both gas central heating and double glazing. EPC – D. A good sized/partially floored attic is accessed via a concealed wooden ladder within the hall cupboard – offering the aforementioned development potential. The gardens are neatly presented with a gated driveway providing private parking whilst also leading to a basic timber garage which offers secure parking/storage. On-street parking is also available.
Ayr is located on the South West Coast of Scotland, its coastline location proves popular with locals & visitors alike. A wide array of local amenities are accessible whilst the A77/A79 provides links north or south. Public transport including regular train/bus services from Ayr are 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 …and of course its sweeping seafront.
Graeme Lumsden, Director/Valuer of BLACK HAY Estate Agents comments…
“ After 35 years within the property industry I have long since lost count of the number of Bungalow Homes I have sold. Long established areas like Seafield remain highly favoured and the sporadic availability of more tightly packed (...and less appealing in my opinion) New Build bungalows only enhance the appeal of traditional bungalows.
No 16 Seafield Crescent has clearly been a comfortable home over many years ….no doubt it will welcome its new owner/s who can create their own comfortable haven to enjoy into the future. ”
