Unique opportunity to purchase a well-proportioned ‘B’ listed town house with attached former shop in Kirkcudbright’s historic old town opposite the castle.
Unique opportunity to acquire a well-proportioned town house located in the heart of Castle Street within Kirkcudbright’s old town. This charming property benefits from flexible accommodation over 3 levels and delightful rear garden with the added benefit of a large shop area which has its own entrance directly from Castle Street which may be suitable for integration subject to appropriate planning consent with the main house.
Alternatively this delightful property could provide its new owner with the ideal frontage to operate a retail shop or art studio within this bustling town. Kirkcudbright is an attractive harbour town situated on the banks of the River Dee. The town itself is of historic and architectural interest with its ancient High Street, Tolbooth Arts Centre, Stewartry Museum and numerous galleries. Long frequented by artists, Kirkcudbright was home to the renowned artist, EA Hornel, one of the “Glasgow Boys”. This tradition is maintained today by a flourishing colony of painters and craft workers which has led to Kirkcudbright being named the “Artists’ Town”.
Kirkcudbright enjoys a wide variety of mainly family owned shops, pubs, hotels and restaurants, whilst offering a wide range of facilities, including its own golf course, marina, swimming pool and an active summer festivities programme, including its own Jazz Festival and Tattoo.
