3 bedroom detached house for sale

Tenure: Freehold

Beechgrove is a delightful Galloway villa set in attractive yet easily maintained garden grounds sitting sideways on to one of the main streets through the Galloway conservation village of Kirkpatrick Durham. The current owners have
painstakingly refurbished the existing property and blended it with an imaginative conversion to provide a magnificent family home. The property is in excellent decorative order throughout and must be viewed to be fully appreciated.

Kirkpatrick Durham itself is an attractive Galloway conservation village, handily located approximately 6 miles north east of Castle Douglas and approximately 12 miles west of Dumfries with relatively easy access to the A75. The south west of Scotland is a genuinely rural area with its gentle rolling landscape, mild climate and dramatic coastline. The area has a good range of sport and outdoor activities with opportunities to take shooting, fishing on the nearby rivers and, of course, golf.
