"Strathken" and its charming Attached Cottage offer those seeking true flexibility the rare opportunity to acquire a Unique Home which can serve as a substantial Family Residence or one which offers the option to use each property individually.
The present owners have extensively refurbished the property at substantial expense creating the fabulous Family Home that we see with "Strathken" whilst the Attached Cottage has been carefully re-developed to provide, in this instance, the opportunity to utilise as a successful Holiday Cottage (see Visitor Book comments).
Although The Cottage has its own independent entrance/garden/kitchen etc, it is linked internally and can easily be brought back into the main accommodation creating a 6 Bedroom Home with multiple public rooms. Its flexibility will also appeal to the buyer perhaps seeking "Granny" style accommodation which combines security/independence or for those wishing to work from home or have independent "teenager" accommodation.
Internal viewing of Strathken reveals a most appealing home of 7/8 main Apartments over 2 levels which has been extensively refurbished (only requiring minor finishing). In particular the well proportioned accommodation comprises on ground floor, reception hall, attractive lounge (featuring solid fuel fire) and separate dining room, a "dream" open-plan living/dining/kitchen which is simply breathtaking and demands attention with its scale/extensive glazing/views, a useful utility room & "downstairs" wc are also provided and there is internal access to/from The Cottage (via the utility).
Strathken's specification includes both oil central heating and double glazing. EPC - D. Mature private gardens are located to the rear, these enjoying countryside views. To the front the property enjoys wonderful panoramic countryside views. A private driveway provides off-road parking.
The Cottage is superbly presented (as one can read from the "glowing" Visitor Book comments) with its own road front entrance whilst a patio door to the rear opens onto its own private garden area, with feature "Hot Tub". In particular the accommodation comprises on ground floor, reception hall with very stylish bathroom off, charming lounge/dining with solid fuel fire, semi-open plan kitchen adjacent, whilst on upper level, 2 delightful double bedrooms with wonderful elevated open countryside views to the front.
The Cottage's specification includes both oil central heating and double glazing. EPC - to be confirmed. As noted there is a private garden area which is separated from the adjoining Strathken.
Dumfries & Galloway is picturesque in terms of its rolling countryside, the A75 serving as its main transport link south & north. Strathken itself By Crossmichael, and is approx' 4.5 miles from Castle Douglas which is very popular, being notable as a "Food Town" whilst the picturesque small harbour town of Kirkcudbright is particularly appealing, approx' 11 miles.
In our view an excellent opportunity to acquire a Unique Home with true flexibility. Internal Viewing will confirm its appeal and particular highlights such as the eyecatching living/dining/kitchen of Strathken whilst the most appealing Cottage offers flexible "additional" accommodation, or the opportunity to secure additional income from an easily managed attached property which is literally "next door".

No 23 Central Esplanade - An exceptionally rare opportunity to acquire a true "seafront" property. For those clients seeking their "dream home by the sea" No 23 Esplanade boldly ticks the most important box "Does the property really have a sea view?" - Yes is the clear answer! From within the property on both the promenade facing ground and upper floors or from the front garden your attention is captured by the sheer panoramic seascape that stretches along the coastline/beachfront with views of Arran & Ailsa Craig on the horizon.
This fine character home comprises a substantial 6 Main Apartments over 3 levels with the valued character retained whilst being carefully complemented by stylish modern fitments in the dining kitchen & bathroom. The successful purchaser will perhaps wish to restyle to their own taste/budget however the competitive price allows scope to create your own special home with a spectacular sea view.
Generally the property is entered from the rear elevation which faces onto the easily missed Bellfield Lane, just off Marina Road however the main door entrance to the front provides instant access to Prestwick's sweeping promenade/seafront and those fabulous views. A much valued private parking space together with a double garage are included with the sale, both located to the rear, either side of the rear entrance gate.
In particular the most appealing & well proportioned accommodation comprises on ground floor, a welcoming reception hall, an impressive bay windowed lounge from which to enjoy the seafront views, a centrally positioned dining/kitchen - well equipped with integrated appliances, to the rear a most useful family/living room with patio doors serving as entrance to/from the rear garden (perhaps one could envisage a rear entrance porch being added here in the future to provide a designated rear entrance hall/porch - subject to planning permission being obtained). A charming period staircase provides access to the upper level, initially a half-landing leads to an attractive rear facing 4th bedroom and a very stylish modern 4 piece bathroom, whilst the main upper hallway features 3 bedrooms - Nos 1 & 2 seafront facing with the "master" No 1 commanding breathtaking elevated views from its 3 frame dormer window. Bedroom No 3 is also of double proportion and is rear facing. 3 of the 4 bedrooms are of spacious double proportion.
The specification includes both gas central heating & double glazing. EPC - E. Private gardens are situated to the front and rear, the front with gate onto the promenade whilst the rear is enclosed for privacy with mixed shrubs/flowers and good seating areas. The rear gate opens onto Bellfield Lane (a T-shaped cul de sac lane). Of the 2 parking spaces when one views the property from the rear No 23 retains the right hand space together with the double garage to the left hand side (adjacent to No 23A which was formerly part of No 23 - noting from the front elevation, the single storey link to the right is not part of this property, it is No 23A and is not part of this property sale).
Prestwick's thriving Town Centre remains a strong reason for its popularity with homeowners and visitors whilst the sweeping promenade/seafront views have a magnetic appeal. Prestwick Airport, the A79 & A77 are easily accessible whilst the popular train & bus service provide Glasgow bound commuters with easy public transport links.
Graeme Lumsden, Director/Valuer of BLACK HAY Estate Agents comments -
" After 30 years in the property industry I still enjoy the many varied property styles and locations which I visit daily as part of my job as an estate agent.
Personally I live in the country however I have always said that if I move it would only be for a sea view. For myself, and many, many others the magic of a sea view remains its ever changing texture/colour/light - never mind the seasons or a particular month or week ….daily and almost by the minute the sea can change from mirror flat calm to gentle ripples, rhythmic waves to racing white horses galloping to the shore on stormy days. The countryside changes by the season, the sea changes by the hour.
No 23 is a superb seafront family home that can entertain on its own however adding in that magical sea view elevates its appeal immensely. Imagine what a New Home builder would price this property at if they built it today?
However in simple terms it comes down to those that seek a true seafront home and value the exceptional qualities of this location and of No 23 itself. It's a Special Home and I have no doubt that the very lucky new owners will settle down on their first evening, soak in the spectacular seafront views and realise that they are indeed living their dream!

* 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.

* 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.
The specification includes both gas central heating and double glazing. EPC – D. Neatly presented mature private gardens are located to the front & rear, whilst a private gated driveway provides off-street parking and leads to a detached garage positioned to the rear. On-street parking is also available nearby.
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.

* 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.

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.

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. ”

“ Even after 38 years in the property industry I still marvel at the magic of living by the sea. The changing seascape from flat calm water through gentle ripples meandering onto the shore …to the white horses/waves racing ashore on stormy days.
For me there is a special connection, an emotion …living by the sea, which is unmatched elsewhere ...and for our owner, the sheer joy when she purchased this particular flat and during the time she has lived there speaks far beyond the monetary value …it’s a life lived in a place that brings you the sheer joy that in my view, only a seafront home can bring.
Our owner will no doubt hope that the new owner of her flat enjoys it as much as she has. ”

* NEW to Market - Available to View Now * Within particularly favoured residential locale, amidst cul de sac of mixed style quality homes, this desirable Modern Detached Villa has been professionally extended, now featuring superb 8 Main Apartment Accommodation over 2 levels. Although of broad appeal this most appealing home is an ideal opportunity for the family buyer seeking space which can accommodate a growing family, noting that the extension can serve as independent space with its 2 apartments (a separate bedroom and small living/tv room with a stylish shower room/wc) …perhaps suiting those with a parent looking for “Granny Style” accommodation, those wishing to work from home but hoping to have space separate from the main living areas or perhaps suiting a child/teenager who requires their own living space.
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).

*NEW to Market - Available to View Now* “Harelaw” - An exceptionally rare opportunity to acquire a most desirable undeveloped Detached Bungalow – purchased from new by the owners who specifically requested at the time of the build to have the attic level undeveloped rather than the usual additional 2 bedrooms & 2nd bathroom …the successful purchasers therefore have the opportunity to create their own layout on the upper level (subject to acquiring planning permission etc), taking advantage of the huge undeveloped space available. The property is attractively set amidst mature corner gardens with the added benefit of a charming/substantial conservatory whilst the side positioned driveway (leading to the garage) provides generous private parking, accessed from Adamton Road North.
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 are much in demand, of broad appeal and valued locally by family & 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.
Internal viewing reveals a welcoming reception hall which leads onto the larger proportioned ground floor apartments, whilst a discreetly positioned internal cupboard staircase leads to the very substantial undeveloped attic area. The ground floor comprises, a dual aspect open-plan lounge/dining extending to over 26’ in length, a separate kitchen to the rear with access to a charming conservatory with patio doors onto the rear gardens, two spacious double bedrooms are featured together with the bathroom. On the upper level, the substantial attic extends to over 38’ in length with an internal central head-height of approx’ 7’ 6” – centrally floored and one can see the concealed internal window openings that were created at the time of the build on either gable end, however not used.
The specification includes both gas central heating and double glazing. EPC – C. Neatly presented private corner sited gardens surround the property, laid out for ease of maintenance to the rear whilst the front is lawned to provide visual interest with willow trees. Private parking for several vehicles is available off-street within the large driveway which in-turn leads to a detached garage which offers secure parking/storage. On-street parking is also available nearby.
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… this is a wonderful opportunity to acquire an extremely rare Detached Bungalow with a undeveloped attic area where one can clearly see the huge potential to develop the accommodation further, rather than finding an upper layout already developed which may not be to your liking (noting planning permission will be required to develop the attic area). Harelaw is a rare find indeed! ”
