A wonderful opportunity… Tucked within most admired yet easily missed *************, a short walk from Prestwick’s sweeping seafront/promenade – No * is a charming character home of Semi Detached Chalet Villa style with a most appealing cottage style exterior (formerly known as ***********). Featuring an attractive blonde sandstone facade overlooking attractive sloping lawned gardens which serve as the main front entrance, noting there are also 2 side gated entrances and a valued private driveway/detached garage (reroofed with remote control door) to the rear.

Deceptive externally, internal viewing reveals a home of immense character & charm, larger proportioned main apartments are featured, complemented by eye-catching high ceilings with fine decorative plasterwork detailing whilst the front facing apartments enjoy pleasing mature garden aspects and elevated views from the upper apartments (bedrooms) include glimpses of Arran on the horizon.

Substantial traditional homes in Prestwick remain highly desirable with ************** enjoying the favoured “seafront side” of Prestwick’s thriving town centre which means it is a very convenient walk to the sweeping promenade/seafront. This substantial style of Traditional Home is particularly valued by family buyers, Glasgow based buyers seeking a change of lifestyle from city to seaside and those relocating from elsewhere seeking a home by the coast.

Rarely available of this proportion and ready to “move-in”, No * is was a much loved home serving its previous owners for approx’ 50 years, the spacious apartments easily accommodating a growing family, or equally suited to those wishing more space in which to relax/entertain. The current owner purchased the property approx’ 4 years ago, relocating from south of the border (and now moving to be nearer family). The property has been sympathetically refurbished by the current owner at considerable expense as it was requiring modernisation when purchased, however it still retains its character. The twin level accommodation layout offers flexibility – originally 2 public, 5 bedrooms, later utilised as 3 Public/4 Bedrooms, now one of the bedrooms has been reconfigured as an “Upper Bathroom” to serve the bedrooms on that level.

In particular, the accommodation on the ground floor comprises, welcoming reception hall with fabulous period spiral staircase wrapping around a substantial centre post (reputed to have been part of ship’s mast, although unconfirmed) displaying wonderful aged timber finish, a most impressive formal bay windowed lounge, separate dining room with further public room currently serving as family or living room (alternative bedroom No 4 if required), bedroom No 1,  a very stylish refitted “Galley” style kitchen with integrated appliances - leading through the rear vestibule which in-turn opens onto a charming conservatory which overlooks the enclosed gardens, the ground floor bathroom has been re-fitted nestling discreetly under the main staircase whilst a most useful modern utility with wc is positioned off the rear vestibule beyond the kitchen

Rising up the wonderful staircase, passing the half-level window alcove, one reaches the upper hallway which provides access to 2 further bedrooms – positioned either side of a former additional bedroom which has been reconfigured to serve as a luxury style bathroom conveniently serving the upper level – these 2 spacious double bedrooms (Nos 2 & 3) enjoy wonderful elevated garden views and glimpses across adjacent distant homes to the horizon which features the partial outline of the Isle of Arran (on clear days).

Both gas central heating & double glazing are featured. EPC – E. The good sized gardens to the front & rear are a valued additional feature of the property, well established providing privacy and welcome outdoor space in which to relax on the best of days – the front garden a picturesque foreground to the property whilst the rear combining an inviting patio area and natural lawn. There are 3 gated pedestrian entrances, 1 to the front & 2 to the side, a gated private driveway to the rear provides off-street parking whilst also leading to a detached garage with remote controlled door.

Prestwick is 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 local buyers seeking a larger family proportioned home within easy walking distance of the seafront.

Graeme Lumsden, Director/Valuer of BLACK HAY ESTATE AGENTS comments…

“As I celebrate 40 Years in the property industry it is fair to say that every home is special in its own way to its owners …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.

When I sold ************* in **** I commented - the new owner will indeed be blessed to own this very special home – one which features a wonderful staircase at its heart …circa 50 years of footsteps of its current owners up n’ down …and who knows how many years that staircase will enjoy the footsteps of its new owners.

Luckily for someone, No * is available to purchase in 2026 and the successful purchaser can enjoy being part of its history for many years to come.”
