Bydand is a traditional semi-detached one and a half storey Galloway cottage located in the Village of Rhonehouse a short distance away from both Kirkcudbright and Castle Douglas.
This charming property is in need of some modernisation and updating but is well positioned within a generous garden with substantial detached workshop and studio which is sure to suit a number of different purchasers.
Rhonehouse itself is a small rural village located 2.5 miles north east of Castle Douglas in the heart of the Stewartry farming community, and within easy reach of the A75.
The nearby town of 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.

About this agent
The commitment of Williamson & Henry to provide high quality, tailored legal services to its clients remains its constant perennial cornerstone. At its core is the commitment to each individual client, be they individuals, partnerships, limited companies or otherwise. Personality and law do not need to be poles apart – within Williamson and Henry, one of the Solicitors is always on hand to guide clients & their families. Whether buying or selling a family home, buying or selling a business, preparing or updating your Will (and finally ticking it off your “to-do” list), putting in place a Power of Attorney or considering Inheritance Tax or Care Home Fees planning, the Solicitors at Williamson & Henry will steer you through the process. 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. The closure of Kirkcudbright Sheriff Court and the migration of local Court matters to Dumfries Sheriff Court has served as a catalyst to concentrate on what is now the core business of the firm. It is to that core business that the firm will continue to devote its capabilities and energies, intent on the provision of high quality legal services from well informed Solicitors and supporting staff
