2 bedroom terraced house

Well-proportioned double fronted traditional Galloway Cottage located in the heart of New Galloway. Garden to rear.

Kiambu is a traditional mid terraced cottage located on the High Street in New Galloway. This property is deceptively spacious and offers well-proportioned light, bright rooms on all levels.

The property has a fabulous well-tended garden with a variety of mature roses and shrubs as well as two stone outbuildings which could lend themselves to future development subject to appropriate planning consents.

It is understood that a Building Warrant to change the layout to form an open plan kitchen/dining room has previously been granted, although no works have been carried out.

The Glenkens, scenically, is a delightful area and New Galloway at its heart used to be the smallest “Royal Burgh” in Scotland. That focus, and indication of civic pride, may explain why it has a surprising range of immediately local facilities for such a small town – there is a challenging 9-hole Golf Course affording magnificent views, hotels, an excellent Tea Room, a Post Office and community run modern General Store, a Medical Practice, two Churches (Church of Scotland and Scottish Episcopalian), a well-regarded Primary School with a Secondary School three miles away at Dalry, and a modern and dynamic Community & Arts Centre at The Cat Strand. A whole range of rural pursuits are easily obtainable nearby, with the emphasis on walking, cycling, water sports and fishing.

Set in a scenic rural location, many larger centres are easily accessible – Ayr is approx 1 hour north, Dumfries approx 45 minutes east, Castle Douglas approx 20 minutes south, Newton Stewart approx 30 minutes west and Kirkcudbright approx 30 minutes south.
