Stepping into the living room, this generous space features a lovely bay window with stunning views of the coastline and Galloway hills opposite. A gas fire with back boiler is in the centre of the room which provides central heating.

There is a useful office/study space with ample room for storage and a desk. There is also a deep cupboard with traditional barn door. This corridor leads into the kitchen at the rear of the property which is fully fitted with modern, wall and base units, black 1.5 bowl sink with stainless steel mixer tap, integrated electric oven with four ring gas hob and overhead extractor fan, integrated dishwasher and fitted wine rack.

The back door gives access to the outside store/toilet.

There are two double bedrooms, both with built in cupboards. The largest bedroom has fitted wardrobes which are included in the sale and a loft hatch to access the roof space where the hot water tank is located. The roof space is boarded for extra storage.

Outside, Kirkmabreck Burn is an outdoor paradise. With several levels of garden areas including a patio, lawn, elevated summerhouse with electric supply and ample sockets (formerly used as a sewing club), mini-orchard, further elevated seating area with a variety of exotic plants and trees and private woodland at the very top of the garden. The current owners have created a small bridge across the burn to easily access the woodland beyond the owned title. This property is a must see for those seeing a private rural retreat with spectacular views and especially those with a love of gardening and the rare plants that thrive with the benefits of the gulf stream for which the area is renowned.
