Cobble End Cottage is located in Palmer’s Close which sits opposite Castle Street, and is unusually wide for the closes off High Street in Kirkcudbright. Since purchasing the present owners have replaced the outstanding windows which had needed replaced prior to their purchase.

The house itself offers well-proportioned light accommodation with four double bedrooms making it an attractive property for a number of different buyers, such as those looking for a family home, or perhaps as a holiday home with rental income potential.

Situated to the south of High Street, the property enjoys a southerly aspect to the rear, and the secluded garden is something of a sun trap.

Outside

The front of the property is accessed through a shared cobbled courtyard. To the side of the front door is a lean-to store providing useful storage for garden implements, tools and the like. There is space to store wheelie bins beside this. A path leads down to a gate to the garden, and the garden can also be accessed directly from the patio door at the rear of the sitting room. The garden is level, has paving down the middle, and paving off to the sides for ease of access. There is a variety of very well established apple and pear trees and shrubs. There is a patio area at the rear providing a drying green. To one side of this is a wooden garden shed with power and a pitched roof.
