Gorgeous Georgian

Georgian terraces in the area are among the finest in the land – yet they can be snapped up on the cheap.

A lovely four bedroom – about to benefit hugely from the Maybole bypass – came to market last week.

It is on Cassillis Road, actually the main A77 through town.

The property dates from way back in 1787, built solidly of stone and slate with a pillared entrance of the era.

That entrance and solid black door would not look out of place in a fashionable London terrace.

You get nearly 1600 square feet for your money and a great chunk of private land out the back.

All that for offers over just £ 145,000, sought by Ayr agents Galbraith.

The two receptions face the front and a third reception room at the back could be used as a study or fifth bedroom.

Ground floor accommodation is completed by a WC and basic sunroom overlooking a lovely garden with stone walling feature.

Upstairs to four bedrooms, the family bathroom and access to the large loft.

Galbraith note: “The sitting room has a decorative cornice, deep skirtings and shelved alcove and there is a gas fire over the open fireplace.”

“The rear garden is bounded in part by a wall, new fencing and hedging. It is well stocked with a variety of colourful plants and shrubs including roses, asters, honeysuckle, ornamental cherry tree and fern.”
