No 7 The Crescent - A rare opportunity to acquire a substantial 6 Main Apartment Traditional Flat which forms the entire Ground Floor of a charming Detached Red Sandstone Villa, itself within most favoured horseshoe style crescent near to Prestwick Cross. Externally the property initially appears to be a pair of Semi Detached Villas however we understand from the owners that is it believed to have been originally built as separate ground & upper flats (perhaps more visually reminiscent of a upper & lower conversion) and remaining the same style today.
Access is by way of a private driveway to the left hand side, with private main door porch entrance. The side pathway also leads to the private rear garden which extends across the rear with internal access from the kitchen. Two useful attached outhouses provide valued external storage space. We understand the entire front garden area is wholly owned by the ground floor flat (exact details/boundaries to be confirmed from the title deeds).
Entering through the private porch, the main door opens onto a lengthy reception hall with on-the-level apartments comprising, a most appealing bay windowed lounge to the front with garden/crescent views, a separate dining room to the side/rear which leads onto a modern style rear facing kitchen (door to garden), bedroom Nos 1 & 2 are located to the front whilst Nos 3 & 4 are located to the rear, with the bathroom situated midway off the reception hall.
The specification includes both gas central heating & double glazing. EPC - D. Private gardens are situated to the front & rear with the rear providing much valued private outdoor space. The private driveway provides off-crescent parking.
The property was purchased by its most recent owner as both their private home & to function as a guest house which it did so until the owner latterly retired from business and lived comfortably in this substantial yet very flexible home. The competitive price allows scope for the successful purchase to modernise to their own style/budget and the 6 Main Apartments are entirely flexible, perhaps serving as a family home or for a couple looking for space to relax/entertain and perhaps work from home.
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 Style Homes remain in demand, of broad appeal and valued by local homebuyers whilst further afield this particular style of home tends to attract Glasgow based buyers who are seeking a change of lifestyle from city to seaside ...and a better work/life balance. Interestingly a similar size of traditional flat in Glasgow's West End will easily exceed £500,000 ...yet Prestwick provides that magical by-the-seaside location, with easy commuting to/from Glasgow. Homemovers relocating from South of the Border continue to seek out coastal locations/properties with the attraction of added "value for money" in relocating from south to north.

A charming Traditional Sandstone “Chalet Style” Semi Villa set amidst picturesque gardens, particularly private to the rear. Featuring 5 Main Apartments over 2 levels which offer flexibility of use.
A comfortable home to its current owner over many years, the property is neatly presented, retaining valued character. The property has been maintained, however the successful purchaser may choose to modernise to their own specification/budget, hence the competitive price allows scope for such works – noting the Home Report Mortgage Valuation of £265,000 (for the property in its current condition). There is further development potential, particularly to the rear due to the size of the gardens (subject to required planning permission etc)
The excellent accommodation comprises on ground floor, reception hall, spacious bay windowed lounge to the front, separate dining/family room with kitchen on lower level to the rear. On the upper level, 3 bedrooms (2 double and 1 single) whilst a stylish modern bathroom is situated off the half-level landing.
The specification includes both gas central heating & double glazing. EPC – D. The picturesque private gardens to the rear are of larger size, reflecting the owner’s keen interest in same, encouraging one to potter or relax outdoors when the good weather beckons. As aforementioned, the extended rear garden area perhaps offers further development potential to the rear of the property. A private driveway to the front of the house provides off-street parking whilst 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. Ayr/Alloway has an excellent choice of well regarded schooling including the favoured Alloway Primary School whilst private schooling is available via Wellington School. 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.
The appeal of traditional homes is often the combination of character, well proportioned apartments and perhaps a larger plot/garden (rather than modern build homes which are usually tightly packed together) – No 12 Maybole Road ticks all those boxes and clearly offers excellent potential for the successful purchaser to create their own special home.
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 Private Viewing Appointment please contact BLACK HAY ESTATE AGENTS on 01292 283606. The Home Report, Video Tour/Floorplan etc are all available to view on our blackhay.co.uk website.

* NEW to Market - Available to View * Enjoying favoured locale, this ever popular stone fronted Detached Bungalow will be of immense interest to clients seeking a much larger garden, which in this case is concealed to the rear. A comfortable home for over 30 years to its current owners, the splendid gardens can easily accommodate a range of interests, from families seeking safe outdoor space, the keen gardener wishing to expand their floral artistry or add a productive veg/fruit area, those yearning to add a summer house/workshop will welcome the extra space. Clearly the opportunity also exists to extend the property further (subject to the required planning permission etc) whilst not impacting such a large garden area …so many ideas to consider.
Conveniently positioned for Ayr Town Centre, local amenities including shopping & public transport whilst local schools are also easily accessible. A short journey takes one to the A77 which provides links north & south.
The property features on-the-level accommodation which has been extended already to the rear whilst the attic area features floored/lined additional storage. In particular comprising, entrance vestibule onto the reception hall, lounge to the front which could be used as a 3rd bedroom if required, extended family/dining room privately situated to the rear with pleasing garden views/access via patio doors, centrally positioned “Galley” style kitchen with breakfasting room beyond and further utility storage thereafter, 2 bedrooms (to the front & rear respectively – Nos 1 & 2) with bedroom No1 featuring a small en-suite. What is now a useful study had been the original bathroom however the current owners elected to create a much larger bathroom by taking some space from the rear family/dining room.
The specification includes both gas central heating and double glazing. EPC – D. Neatly maintained private gardens are located to the front & rear, noting the very substantial rear gardens. A private driveway provides off-street parking, this leading to the rear with a paved vehicular turning space available. On-street parking is also available.
Graeme Lumsden, Director/Valuer of BLACK HAY Estate Agents comments…
“ After 35 years working in the property industry across Scotland, Bungalows have remained a firm favourite for homebuyers …today it’s not just retired/semi retired buyers that want a bungalow as their final home, younger buyers are switching away from tightly packed modern homes, appreciating the flexibility of a bungalow and the opportunities that are often available to extend.
This is an exciting opportunity with its secret garden, one that a New Homes Builder today would almost refuse to allocate to just one house. If they wish… the successful purchasers will have the opportunity to extend their indoor lifestyle outdoors, without running out of space.
One can just imagine what can be created in such a wonderful outdoor space. ”

* NEW to Market * A wonderful opportunity to acquire a true “Seafront Home” on Prestwick’s sweeping promenade. This desirable Traditional Flat occupies most appealing “Garden Level” within a distinctively styled 3-Storey Victorian Semi Villa.
Historically the property is believed to date back to circa 1890’s, originally built as Semi Villas, subsequently converted to form individual flats. The building has been refurbished including a new roof whilst internally it benefits from a modern finish/specification.
Particular mention should be made that the Garden Flat retains private ownership of the entire lawned garden area directly in front of the property (together with the paved patio area adjacent to the side entrance) also noting the gated access (shared) on the front boundary wall opens onto the promenade allowing one to enjoy walking the seafront ...literally “a stone’s throw” away.
The neatly presented accommodation which is contemporary in style is accessed via a garden level private main door to the side of No 20. Featuring 3 Main Apartments, comprising entrance hallway which opens onto the lounge, a secondary central hallway which provides access to the 2 double bedrooms which overlook the front garden (one of which could be utilised as an alternative main or 2nd public room) with sea/Isle of Arran views on the skyline just beyond the boundary wall (the view is more visible when one is sitting outdoors), the dining style kitchen and bathroom are both located to the rear.
The specification includes both gas central heating and double glazing EPC – C. Private car parking is available within the communal rear facing driveway (the access is easily missed, off Marina Road) - an allocated space to the left is provided adjacent to the property. On-street parking is also available. The property is self-factored with costs communally shared between residents (3).
Prestwick is very popular with its thriving town centre, excellent variety of amenities and its sought after 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 – with no seafront views!) …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 seeking a true seafront home.
Graeme Lumsden, Director/Valuer of BLACK HAY ESTATE AGENTS comments…
“As I celebrate 40 Years in the property industry it is clear to me that every home is special in its own way to its owner/s …however I confess to perhaps having a soft-spot for Traditional Homes as they illustrate through their longer history that we are merely custodians of the home that we own …until the next person moves in …however, what joy that home can bring to each & every owner.
Seafront Homes have an almost magical appeal as the seascape is one that can literally change by the minute versus a countryside view that changes gradually through the seasons.
Prestwick Promenade beckons one to stroll, exercise, relax, walk the sands, take in the views & sea air, to contemplate the joy of living by-the-sea …and with No 20, you walk through your garden, open the gate …and it is there for you to enjoy ...whenever you wish.
A wonderful opportunity awaits...”
