17 Ernespie Road is a charming stone built townhouse providing bright and spacious accommodation throughout. This delightful property retains many of its original features such as deep skirting boards and cornicing. This spacious family home has a wonderful rear garden providing a tranquil oasis whilst being centrally located in the heart of Castle Douglas within easy reach of all local amenities.
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.
