Live amongst town’s history

Four-bed villa with views of the past

- ABI SMILLIE

The rare opportunit­y to live amongst Ayr’s medieval past presents itself in this beautiful home, which is quite literally a stone’s throw from the town’s oldest building.

Number 3 Bruce Crescent is situated within the historic Fort area of Ayr and not only was it one of the first residentia­l properties to be built in the area, circa 1849, but it also boasts a knockout view of St John’s Tower, which dates back to the 1200s.

The four-bed detached villa is a short walk from the town centre, the beach and the new Ayr Grammar Primary School & Early Years Centre. Its ideal location- with plenty of house and spacious garden- would make the perfect property for a family.

The accommodat­ion comprises of; entrance vestibule, reception hall, front facing lounge with log burning fireplace, cosy family room which is currently being utilised partly as a home office, and breakfasti­ng kitchen with separate utility leading to a modern shower room.

A garden room extension with doors leading outside to the rear gardens plus a double bedroom completes the ground floor.

From the hall, stairs rise to a split level landing which hosts the modern family bathroom with bath and separate walk in shower.

Stairs continue to the first floor where three double bedrooms and the master with en-suite shower room are situated.

Outside, gardens to the front enjoy a wonderful outlook over the aforementi­oned St John’s Tower. A driveway provides secure off street parking for numerous vehicles which leads to a detached garage. The extensive rear gardens are made up of lawn with a lower level decking, ideal for outdoor entertaini­ng and alfresco dining.

Offers in Excess of £360,000. Contact Stonefield on: 01292 501777.
