* NEW to Market - Available to View Now * A rare opportunity to acquire a desirable 4 Bedroom Modern Detached Villa, adjacent to railway line, enjoying elevated golf course views to rear with the sea/coastline on the horizon. One of a small number of similar style homes built on Douglas Avenue, Prestwick. Of particular appeal to those seeking a detached home in a favoured locale, convenient for walking to Prestwick’s sweeping promenade seafront.
Competitively priced to allow scope for the successful purchaser to refresh the property internally, noting that the conservatory to the side has suffered some minor movement. A Structural Engineer’s Report (packaged to view along with the pdf Home Report, available only by visiting our blackhay.co.uk website – we do not send this via rightmove) confirms the house itself is unaffected by the conservatory which was believed to have been added after the property was built. It seems likely the issue is related to the foundation of the conservatory however it is considered of “No Value” with regard to the Home Report mortgage valuation of £260,000 and the property is “Sold as Seen”.
Internal viewing reveals a well proportioned modern style home featuring 6 Main Apartments over 2 levels, the ground floor comprising, most welcoming reception hall with useful “downstairs” wc off, spacious lounge with semi-open plan dining to rear, separate breakfasting/kitchen with rear vestibule off and door/stairs leading down to the rear pathway. On the upper level, 4 bedrooms are provided, providing flexible accommodation for a growing family or additional home working/leisure space if a non-family buyer – noting the pleasingly elevated golf course views (over the railway line) from the rear facing apartments. The main bathroom is also on the upper level.
Both gas central heating & double glazing are featured. Attic storage is available. EPC – D. Noting the site of the property is elevated/slopes downhill, therefore the front garden area is level with the roadway and is attractively landscaped, the rear garden is non-existent other than a paved pathway which runs along the rear of the property allowing full access around the property. A sloping private driveway provides off-street parking whilst also leading to a detached garage which currently provides secure parking/storage. There are different options available perhaps to create more garden, perhaps removing the garage and creating a decked/patio style area (as on-street parking adjacent to the property is generally available) however the successful buyers will no doubt have their own thoughts.
Prestwick remains Ayrshire’s “property hotspot”, with its well established mixed main street shopping/restaurants/amenities, whilst the delightful/sweeping promenade & seafront are within walking distance. Public transport includes bus & train. Prestwick Airport is nearby whilst the property is also convenient for access to the A77/A78. Of broad appeal, valued locally by family buyers in particular, together with couples & retired/semi-retired clients, whilst further afield of interest to 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.
In our view… a superb opportunity to acquire a desirable Detached Home, particularly suited to those seeking value for money and the opportunity to create their own stylish home. To discuss your interest in this particular property, which is “Sold as Seen”, please contact Graeme Lumsden, our Director/Valuer, who is handling this particular sale - 01292 283606.

* NEW to Market - Available to View Now * An excellent opportunity to acquire a desirable 4 Bedroom Family Home… completed by renowned Persimmon Homes in Late 2022, this “Luxury Style” Detached Villa (The Leith) is set within popular “Fairfields” Residential Development on the edge of Monkton Village. With its “New Build” construction ensuring the property is energy efficient (solar panels are featured) whilst the vendors selected an enhanced internal specification. It’s also worth highlighting the benefit of the property’s “almost new” status which ensures an extended balance of the NHBC Guarantee remains – approx. 8.5 years.
Internal viewing confirms that the property is “ready to move-in”, with the well proportioned accommodation over 2 levels comprising on ground floor, reception hall, spacious lounge to the front, separate dining/kitchen to the rear featuring enhanced spec’ kitchen fitments in attractive gloss white finish with integrated appliances whilst the open-plan dining area has patio doors overlooking/leading onto the good sized enclosed/lawned rear gardens, a very useful separate utility room is adjacent to the dining kitchen (additional exit/entrance door here) with a convenient “downstairs” wc located off. On the upper hallway, a flexible layout of 4 bedrooms with the main bathroom centrally positioned – bedroom Nos 1 & 2 to the front with No 1 being the “master” featuring a favoured “en-suite”, whilst bedroom Nos 3 & 4 are located to the rear, noting that all the bedrooms are of a good size.
The specification includes both gas central heating & double glazing whilst the roof mounted solar panels deliver added efficiency. EPC – B. Attic storage is available. The broad tarmacadam driveway provides private parking whilst also leading to the integral garage which offers secure parking/storage.
The “Fairfields” Residential Development is situated on the edge of ever popular Monkton Village, itself a short distance from Prestwick's thriving Town Centre (approx’ 3 miles) with its sweeping promenade/seafront. There is a local Primary School and convenience shopping nearby. Public transport is available, whilst the A77/A79 are a short distance away, providing excellent coastal links south & north together with direct commuting to Glasgow/beyond. Prestwick Airport is located on the edge of Monkton.
In our view an excellent opportunity to acquire a desirable “New Build” Detached Villa with the benefit of a notable “cost saving” over its “brand new price”, the lengthy balance of NHBC Guarantee remaining …and the “integral garage” offering potential to extend the accommodation at a later date if required (within the “footprint” of the existing building, rather than the excessive cost of building an external extension) – subject to acquiring planning etc.
To discuss your interest in this particular property please contact Graeme Lumsden, our Director/Valuer, who is handling this particular sale – 01292 283606.

* NEW to Market - Available to View Now * A superb opportunity to acquire a desirable Modern Style Detached Villa, a comfortable home to its only owners from new. Set amidst picturesque gardens, within favoured Alloway residential locale.
The competitive price allows scope for the successful purchaser to modernise to their own style/budget. The gardens are pleasingly of larger size, offering valued privacy with mature screening, together with the side driveway …there is perhaps scope to extend the property further (subject to acquiring planning permission etc).
The simply styled accommodation is well proportioned over 2 levels, comprising reception hall, lounge to the front enjoying attractive views, separate dining to the rear accessed from the kitchen or sliding doors from the lounge, the kitchen is original with rear door onto the enclosed gardens. On the upper level, 3 bedrooms (2 double & a single) together with the bathroom. Attic storage is available.
The specification includes gas central heating. EPC – D. A private driveway provides valued off-street parking whilst also leading to a detached garage (this requires attention and is sold as seen). On-street parking is also available.
To discuss your interest in this particular property please contact Graeme Lumsden, our Director/Valuer, who is handling this particular sale – 01292 283606. To secure a Viewing Appointment please contact BLACK HAY ESTATE AGENTS on 01292 283606. The Home Report is available to view exclusively on our blackhay.co.uk website.
In our view… No 6 Bathurst Drive has been a comfortable home to its owners for circa 50 years, so much so that having bought it new they never moved. The lucky new owners will no doubt transform it into their very own 21st century home, to hopefully enjoy many years ahead …enjoying the fact that it is detached …has a private driveway/garage space …is set amidst delightful leafy/private gardens …and the potential that it offers for their future. Lucky Buyers indeed.

* NEW to Market - Available to View Soon * A rare opportunity to acquire a desirable Modern Style Detached Villa enjoying a particularly favourable corner site (at the junction of Merkland Road & Kersepark) resulting in larger corner gardens which perhaps offer real potential for further development (subject to required planning permission etc).
Competitively priced to allow scope for the successful purchaser to refresh the property internally, noting that the rear extension has suffered some minor movement. A Structural Engineer’s Report (packaged to view along with the pdf Home Report, available only by visiting our blackhay.co.uk website) comments the house itself is unaffected by the rear extension which is believed to have been added after the property was built. It seems likely the issue may be related to the foundation of the extension however it noted as being of “No Value” with regard to the Home Report mortgage valuation of £225,000, noting the property is “Sold as Seen”.
Internal viewing reveals a well proportioned modern style home featuring 4/5 Main Apartments (excluding the rear extension) over 2 levels. The ground floor comprising, entrance vestibule onto the reception hall with useful “downstairs” wc off, spacious L-shaped lounge with semi-open plan dining or additional living area to the side (the “No Value” extension is accessed from the rear of the lounge), a separate kitchen is situated off the hallway to the rear with external door to the side. On the upper level, 3 good sized bedrooms are provided – No 1 to the front whilst Nos 2 & 3 are located to the rear. The main bathroom, of larger size, also on the upper level.
Gas “Warm Air” heating is featured together with double glazing. Attic storage is available. EPC – D. A private driveway provides off-street parking whilst also leading to a detached garage which provides secure parking/storage. Of particular appeal to the family buyer, those keen on gardening, or indeed those seeking space where they can perhaps extend or develop the property further (subject to required planning etc) …are the larger corner gardens/plot which the property occupies, much valued outdoor space which is mature/neatly presented.
With regard to the “No Value” Extension to the rear …current trends suggest that many buyers seek to create more open-plan style space, usually to the rear, which tends to suggest that a potential buyer may well deem the existing extension not large enough or suitable for their needs, therefore removal of this is more palatable knowing that the price of the property has been adjusted to reflect its current No-Value status – noting as always that planning permission etc is required for any proposed extensions etc.
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.
In our view… a superb opportunity to acquire an appealing Detached Home, particularly desirable due to its location/larger gardens and the real potential that it offers for those looking to create their own special home.
