A BEAUTIFULLY RENOVATED SCHOOL HOUSE SET WITHIN GENEROUS MATURE GARDEN GROUNDS OCCUPYING AN IDYLLIC LOCATION WITHIN THE VILLAGE OF CROCKETFORD

Old School is conveniently located within the pretty village of Crocketford. Built in 1912 as Crocketford School, Old School was converted into a dwelling and has been sympathetically modernised to create the perfect modern home while retaining original features such as high ceilings and the original arched doorway in the living room.

The accommodation is immaculately presented and offers three generously sized bedrooms. The property is approached by its own gated driveway, adding to the privacy of the dwelling, and has ample space for parking several cars. Old School is surrounded by mature garden grounds attracting a variety of native wildlife and enjoys beautiful views over the fields towards the A75.

Old School is within walking distance of the convenience store in Crocketford and the Galloway Arms Hotel, which is also a popular pub and restaurant. A private swimming pool available for booking can be found at Brandedleys Caravan Site approximately half a mile away on the outside of the village. A wide variety of countryside pursuits are available right from the doorstep, such as fishing, shooting, hiking and cycling. Primary schooling is available at Springholm (3 miles) or Shawhead (4 miles), and secondary schooling can be found at Castle Douglas (8 miles).

Old School’s garden grounds provide a generous plot with well-established planted beds, mature trees, and shrubs, along with neatly maintained lawn areas bordered by stone-edged beds and gravel paths. There is a well in the front part of the garden grounds, which adds a beautiful feature to the garden. To the rear, the garden is fully enclosed, creating a safe and secure space for children and pets. The grounds also feature an outbuilding and a summerhouse. To the side of the house is a storeroom for housing the oil boiler. The property is accessed via two ironed gates and has a resin-bound gravel surface. There is ample space for parking several cars.
