Description

Alton Farm is situated near the village of Drummore in the Wigtownshire area of Dumfries & Galloway. Formerly a dairy farm, it lies within a region noted for its mild climate and long grass-growing seasons. This has contributed to the Rhins Peninsula being recognised as one of the most productive farming regions in Southwest Scotland.

The farm benefits from a beautifully presented traditional farmhouse which within the current ownership has benefited from partial re-roofing, installation of air source heat pump, including a new boiler and radiators, and the property has been rewired. In addition, planning has been approved for a fabulous new extension to the south elevation to accommodate a bedroom, ensuite on the first floor and bathroom and utility room on the ground floor. The other alterations proposed include converting the existing attached store to the host dwelling into a large kitchen/living area with patio doors providing stunning sea views. Details of this planning can be found on Dumfries and Galloway Councils planning portal, using the ref': 24/2113/FUL.

To compliment the farm, a new agricultural building has just been erected measuring 73m long x 21m wide. This building has been utilised for loose housing of cattle with no cubicles, etc. fitted, therefore, this building could lend itself to many different purposes. There are a further range of modern farm buildings one of which houses a newly installed milking parlour. For the avoidance of doubt, should the milking parlour not be required by the successful purchaser, it will be removed prior to completion of the sale.

In addition, there is an charming stone-built cottage and approximately 140 acres of productive agricultural land. The land is currently down to grass for grazing and conservation (silage) but is capable of supporting a wide range of cereal and other forage crops.
