This compact first-mid-floor studio sits directly opposite Newton Beach, delivering uninterrupted sea views across the promenade and towards the Wee Cumbrae and Ailsa Craig. The single open-plan room includes a fitted kitchenette, dining nook by the window and a fully tiled shower room. A private cellar with a WC and a shared communal garden add useful storage and outdoor space.
Offered at a fixed price of £39,999 with freehold tenure and very low Council Tax (Band A), the flat is presented as a ready-to-use holiday base or a low-cost seasonal let. The building’s communal close and stairwell are reported as well maintained, and the flat benefits from double glazing and an Energy Efficiency Rating of C.
Practical points to note: the studio is small and better suited to single occupancy or short stays rather than full-time family living. The shower uses a wall-mounted electric unit and a macerator WC, which can require more care than standard plumbing. The wider area is described as very deprived, and local services rely on ferry connections to the mainland.
For someone seeking an affordable seaside bolt-hole or a low-entry investment in Millport, this property offers exceptional location value. Its size and specification mean modest running and maintenance costs, but buyers should factor in possible upkeep of the electric shower/macerator installation and the limited living space when considering longer-term use.
