Ayr's cheapest flat above well-known pub goes to auction for bargain price

The cheapest home for sale in Ayr as listed on property website Rightmove, is up for sale at auction- at a starting bid of just £25,000.

Although in need of some TLC, the one-bedroom first floor flat on Mill Street is being offered for sale at a guide price that is 37 per cent less than its Home Report value of £40,000.

It means there’s a great chance for one successful buyer to snap up a bargain.

What’s more, the property is above a popular Ayr watering hole.

The flat’s accommodation includes a lounge with kitchenette off, a bedroom and a shower room, and it’s located just a stone’s throw from Ayr town centre and around just a 15-minute walk to the esplanade and beach.

The flat at 37 Mill Street will be open to bids at Auction House Scotland’s in-room auction at 2pm on 18th May at the Radisson RED hotel, 25 Tunnel Street, Glasgow.

The auction will also be live streamed, allowing interested bidders the option to watch and bid online, whilst telephone and proxy bidding is also available- if potential buyers are unable to attend the auction to bid in person.

All bidders are required to register to bid before participating.
