Description

Welcome to The Old School, a charming former schoolhouse that invites you in through a practical porch, perfect for coats and shoes. Step inside to discover a spacious L-shaped hallway that naturally flows into all the main rooms, creating a welcoming and functional layout.

The accommodation offers a versatile WC conveniently located just off the hallway. The dining room, which can also serve as a fourth bedroom, provides flexible living options to suit your family or guests. A large walk-in utility room houses the main boiler and is plumbed for white goods, adding to the home's practicality.

The kitchen/diner is well-equipped with wall and base units, an electric hob and oven, and space for a fridge/freezer. Double-aspect windows flood the room with natural light, making it a bright and inviting space. The spacious lounge features large windows and a side glass door leading to the garden, complemented by a log burner that creates a warm and cozy atmosphere.

There are three double bedrooms, each with built-in storage cupboards and wardrobes, providing ample space for your needs. The family bathroom is fully tiled and includes a WC, a wash hand basin with storage, a heated towel rail, and a bath with an overhead shower.

Set within generous, well-established grounds, The Old School boasts wraparound gardens filled with mature trees, shrubs, and neatly maintained lawns bordered by stone-edged beds and gravel paths. A charming front garden well adds a unique feature to the property, while the fully enclosed rear garden offers a safe and secure space for children and pets.

Additional outdoor amenities include an outbuilding and summerhouse, perfect for hobbies or relaxation, and a storeroom to the side of the house housing the oil boiler. The property is accessed via two iron gates, with a resin-bound gravel driveway providing ample parking for several cars.

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. Primary schools are available at Springholm or Shawhead, and secondary school can be found at Castle Douglas or Dumfries.   A further range of local services can be found at Castle Douglas, known as Scotland’s Food Town, offering many local individual shops and businesses, with a wide range of traditional shops, delicatessens, butchers, bakers, grocery stores and craft outlets. As well as supermarkets, professional and health services.

About eXp UK, Scotland

114 St. Martin's Lane London WC2N 4BE

eXp UK are the newest estate agency business, powering individual agents around the UK to provide a personal service and experience to help get you moved.

Here are the top 7 things you need to know when moving home:

Get your house valued by 3 different agents before you put it on the market

Don't pick the agent that values it the highest, without evidence of other properties sold in the same area

It's always best to put your house on the market before you find a property

The estate agent acts for the seller and is there to get the seller the best price possible

Understand the length of time it can take - 14 weeks from when you accept an offer, or have an offer accepted to move in! A long time!

It can get stressful, but speak to your agent and your solicitor and they will put you in the picture

Be nice to estate agents - we're pretty nice people, offer some great advice and will help to get you moved ;-)
