4 bedroom detached house

Barburgh Mill offers an exciting development opportunity to any prospective purchaser. The property and buildings are located in a semi-rural location just 11 miles north of Dumfries on the A76 route and are set within a plot extending to approximately 3.4 acres.
The subjects for sale comprise of a detached four-bedroom house with gated parking and extensive garden with a burn running through it, a large former mill and a former millworker's cottage. In September 2021 full planning permission was granted for change of use of the mill to a residential dwelling, as well as for the erection of two holiday cottages (planning reference 20/1556/FUL).
The superb outdoor space, highly accessible location and the potential of the site make this a very desirable offering indeed. 

Main House
An enclosed porch opens into the hallway, with carpeted stairs leading to the first floor. There are two bright and spacious reception rooms located to the front of the property. Also on the ground floor is a modern, fully fitted kitchen, a large secondary kitchen, utility room, a double bedroom and a shower room.
On the first floor three further double bedrooms can be found, one with built in storage, along with a family bathroom.
Due to the layout of the accommodation, it would be possible to create two separate residences within this building if so desired, as has been the case in the past.

Former Mill
A fine example of a former two storey mill building. Full planning permission has now been granted, along with building warrants and all necessary paperwork, to convert this building into a superb and luxurious detached four-bedroom home. The proposed design utilises a great deal of the building's original features. Existing openings are utilised where possible, whilst additional windows and doors maintain much of the vertical emphasis of the period. The roof will be finished in natural slate; conservation style rooflights are proposed along with cast iron rainwater goods. Please see proposed floorplans for reference.

Holiday Cottages
A former millworker's cottage located 15 metres to the west of the Mill building also has full planning permission for the creation of two identical two-bedroom cottages. The proposed single storey holiday cottages are of a simple design, with a natural slate roof to match that of the neighbouring Mill building. Windows are proposed to be finished in grey, with black plastic rainwater goods and a white dry dash render finish. Please see proposed floorplans for reference.

N.B the 2 holiday accommodation units shall not be used for any purpose other than holiday accommodation and shall not be sold for the sole use or main residence of the occupant of the accommodation.

The internal access road is also proposed to be altered to accommodate additional parking for all units.
