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. ”

* NEW to Market - Available to View Now * Seldom available within favoured Prestwick locale, convenient easy walking distance of the seafront/promenade, No 10 Douglas Avenue has been a much-loved family home over decades, with the opportunity now for a new owner to acquire their next home to take them through their future years, whether with family or not.
An attractively styled Traditional Semi Detached Villa externally, internally featuring 5 well proportioned/flexible apartments over 2 levels with the undeveloped attic perhaps beckoning further development potential, noting similar properties nearby and their individual attic developments (subject of course to acquiring planning permission etc).
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. Traditional Homes remain ever popular, of broad appeal and valued locally by family, professionals and retired/semi retired clients 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.
A very comfortable home to its family over many years. Internal viewing reveals a flexible layout of well proportioned accommodation comprising on ground floor, a welcoming reception hall with staircase to the side (with a useful “downstairs” wc adjacent) leading to the upper level, a most appealing formal bay windowed lounge to the front with equally spacious dining/family room directly behind – this could be a 4th bedroom, if required, whilst a separate “L-shaped Galley Style” kitchen wraps around partially to the rear with access onto the gardens from here. On the upper level a bay windowed “master” double bedroom (No 1) to the front enjoys attractive sea views on the skyline with the golf course just beyond the adjacent newer build properties, bedroom No 3 directly behind is again of spacious proportion, whilst the smaller bedroom No 2 is also situated to the front, the main bathroom is located off the upper hall to the rear.

In our view, a rare opportunity to acquire a well proportioned desirable home which invites one to ponder …whether to switch the lounge to upstairs to enjoy those fantastic elevated views, use the existing lounge as a family/dining room and the remaining rooms serve as bedrooms over 2 levels …with the undeveloped attic tweaking one’s attention as to what it could be (subject to that planning permission of course).
No doubt this Charming Home will attract interest whether in its current format or for the potential that it offers… To view, please telephone BLACK HAY ESTATE AGENTS direct on 01292 283606.

A very comfortable home to its owners who thoughtfully developed the property during their almost 4 decades, adding the delightful conservatory in circa 2003 whilst the substantial extension was added circa 2014. It is fair to describe the property as 8 Apartments with the main house featuring, 2 public rooms plus the conservatory which undoubtedly extends the living accommodation together with 3 bedrooms, whilst the extension features 2 further apartments highlighted as an additional (4th) bedroom and small living/tv room (this could be a 5th bedroom if required).

The specification includes both gas central heating and double glazing. EPC – C. Attic storage is available. The property is very neatly presented, set amidst picturesque gardens which clearly reflect the owners keen interest in same. A private monobloc driveway provides off-street parking whilst also leading to a detached garage situated to the rear. On-street parking is also available.

* NEW to Market - Available to View Now * A rare opportunity to acquire a most desirable Extended Semi Detached Villa within easily missed crescent just off Broompark Avenue. Of broad appeal, although likely to be of particular interest to family buyers, this well presented home offers flexible 6 Main Apartment Accommodation over 2 levels, having been extended to the rear to form an open-plan dining room to the kitchen and a useful 4th bedroom which can be a cosy tv room/home office etc, if required.
Although tucked quietly away the property is very convenient for access to Prestwick’s thriving town centre and excellent local schools, both within walking distance. 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 local buyers appreciate the appeal of Prestwick together with its sweeping seafront.
The accommodation on ground floor comprises, welcoming reception hall, most appealing lounge to the front with views over the crescent, stylish kitchen to the rear with open-plan dining room featuring patio doors, the 4th bedroom is positioned at the rear of the hallway offering flexibility of use whilst a very useful “downstairs” shower/wc is positioned understairs. On the upper level, 3 further bedrooms served by a stylish main bathroom.
Attic storage is available. Both gas central heating and double glazing are featured. EPC – C. A driveway (shared with adjacent property) leads to a superb lengthy detached garage which provides secure parking and additional outhouse storage. Private gardens are situated to the front and rear, the front enjoying attractive views across the crescent whilst the rear enclosed for privacy with broad feature decked patio overlooking the lawn.
In our view, this style of property is genuinely rarer to the market with owners often residents for longer because of the favoured locale and convenience for access to the town centre etc. This extended Semi Villa can accommodate the growing family or indeed those seeking a better work/home balance with the 4th bedroom able to provide separate “office space”.

Graeme Lumsden, Director/Valuer of BLACK HAY Estate Agents comments…
“ Notwithstanding my 36 Years in the Property Industry and the thousands of properties sold on behalf of my clients ...I have also been fortunate to own/live in quite an array of different properties/locations over the years however Fairfield Park reminds me of Luxury Style Flats in Glasgow where I happily lived for a number of years.
The external space of this development one would rarely witness today on similar New-Build Flats as the developers/builders simply cannot resist the lure of profit/more properties versus the unseen value that comes with living amidst a development that actually breathes because of the space in which it is set. Add to that, the larger balcony with its delightful garden views and that tantalising sea view glimpse on the horizon …prompting one to embrace promenade walks on the best of days or wrap up for those bracing autumn/winter walks where one leans into the wind & rain yet enjoys the exhilaration that only a wild sea can deliver.
In my view, No 53 Fairfield Park is a superb Modern Style Luxury Flat, of favoured 4 Main Apartment style and pleasingly ready to move-in and embrace its new owner/s, offering the many benefits & welcome convenience that flat living provides …and when the New Owners want to do something else, simply lock up & leave …the welcome magic of flat living! ”
