Burnside Villa is a traditional detached stone cottage in the picturesque village of Balmaclellan. This charming property benefits from a good size garden with large gravel parking area to one side and further parking at the front. To the rear of the property is a large garden and the size of the plot may suggest it could accommodate a second dwelling and there is plenty of room for extension to this property subject to appropriate planning consents.

Balmaclellan is just off the main A712 from New Galloway to Crocketford via Corsock. It is convenient for the A713 that runs from Castle Douglas to Ayr. The village itself is quietly situated and has a good community. There is a village shop, excellent village hall and Men’s Shed which are the focus of community events. The pretty church is noted for its “Old Mortality” statue in the church yard.

Balmaclellan has three access roads which all conjoin in the centre of the village. If you approach from the A713 turn of the A713 on to the A712 Corsock Road at the Kenbridge Hotel, take the first turning left then the first right in to the village. In the centre of the village opposite the shop turn left and Burnside Villa is situated on the right hand side of this road about half way along. (From Corsock on the A712 take the first road in to the village and Burnside is situated on the left).

In terms of quality, ‘Local’ does not mean ‘Less’. The firm focuses on individual clients and relies on the vast experience and depth of knowledge held by its Solicitors.
