Description
Kirkbride is a lovingly renovated semi detached steading conversion offering surprisingly spacious and light accommodation throughout. The property enjoys a secluded position six miles north of the harbour town of Kirkcudbright and only three miles from the market town of Castle Douglas.
This delightful conversion is in excellent condition and benefits from large characterful public rooms, oil fired central heating, and double glazing throughout. Kirkbride is set within delightful garden grounds which are a haven for wildlife and birds.
This property would suit a number of different buyers due to its flexible accommodation and idyllic rural location from a full time family home in the heart of the beautiful Dumfries and Galloway countryside to those looking for an investment opportunity to operate as a high end self-catering holiday let.
Castle Douglas is a thriving Galloway market town, lying approximately 18 miles south-west of Dumfries and enjoying an enviable range of shops and other facilities in a town now promoted as a “Food Town”. The town also has a wide range of facilities including excellent primary and secondary schools, modern Health Centre, supermarkets and a thriving community run theatre, The Fullarton, nearby. The Dumfries and Galloway Region is renowned for its beautiful countryside with rolling pastures broken by stone dykes and amenity woodland with a rugged coastline. Benefiting from the Gulf Stream, the general climate is mild and there are consequently many beautiful gardens nearby including the National Trust Gardens at Threave.
