Description

3 Cairn Court enjoys a prime position on the edge of the village of Keir Mill, just a short distance from Penpont and Thornhill. It offers bright and spacious accommodation, ample parking, garaging and a well-established, professionally designed garden.  

The property was originally built in 2014 and is in immaculate condition throughout. There is underfloor heating to the ground floor and to the bathrooms on the first floor, and fibre broadband is connected.    

3 Cairn Court sits in a generous plot at the head of a small cul-de-sac and boasts lovely views to the surrounding countryside from all rooms.

Accommodation:

The front door opens into the vestibule, which in turn opens out into the hall and open plan sitting room.  The hall offers carpeted stairs with oak banister and understair cupboard.

The sitting room is generous in size and boasts a dual aspect, with French doors to the rear that open directly out to the limestone paved patio and garden.  Attractive engineered oak flooring runs throughout the ground floor, and there is an impressive wood burning stove in the sitting room, set on a slate hearth under an oak mantel.

Adjacent to the sitting room is a cosy snug / play room, with window to the rear overlooking the garden.  There is a modern shower room located opposite, so this reception room could easily be utilised as a ground floor bedroom if required, given its ease of access to the shower room.

The kitchen/dining/family room is the real heart of the home. It is filled with natural light from windows on all four elevations, also giving lovely views to the side and rear, and there is ample room for dining furniture and more.  The kitchen area is fitted with an excellent range of shaker style units under complementary worksurfaces, and there is an integrated dishwasher and wine fridge.  N.B the freestanding island unit and the Rangemaster electric cooker will remain and are included in the sale. 

Adjacent to the kitchen is a useful utility room, fitted with a good range of modern units, a sink and with plumbing for white goods.  A part glazed door leads from here out to the garden.

Upstairs, the landing houses an airing cupboard and offers a hatch to the attic. There are four double bedrooms (two ensuite) and a family bathroom on the first floor.

The principal bedroom suite is a lovely, bright and spacious bedroom, boasting a dual aspect and French doors that open to a Juliet balcony, with far reaching countryside views.  There are excellent built-in wardrobes and a useful dressing room next door (presently used as a study).  The dressing room leads through to a superb ensuite bathroom, comprising deep, free-standing bath with handheld shower attachment, a separate and generous shower cubicle, WC and twin wash hand basins set into vanity units.  There are two heated towel rails, an LED lit mirror, tiled floor and the velux windows offer ample natural light.

The second bedroom has a window to the front elevation, built-in wardrobe and a modern ensuite shower room.  The remaining double bedrooms offer lovely views to the rear and built-in storage.  The family bathroom comprises a deep bathtub, separate shower cubicle, WC and wash hand basin set into a vanity unit.

Outside

The property is approached via a short section of shared drive from the main road (shared with two others), before you enter the private gated driveway belonging to No. 3. 

The tarmac driveway offers parking for several vehicles and there are two garage doors which open up into a spacious double garage. The garage is heated and insulated, with a Belfast sink providing hot and cold water and external power sockets.

The established grounds fully enclosed and are a gardeners’ paradise. The present owners are keen gardeners, and have created a fabulous space, with many areas to sit and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.  They also enlisted the help of garden designer Duncan Hall, who won two medals at Chelsea Flower Show in 2025.

The principal area of garden is located to the rear of the house. It is laid to patios, lawn and gravel paths, with herbaceous borders, mature shrubs, varieties of roses, silver birch trees, raised fruit and vegetable beds and even an asparagus bed.  It is an absolute delight.

To the sides of the property are a shed and storage areas and to the side and front of the house are a variety of apple and morello cherry trees, and damson, fruit beds and gravel pathways, and a charming treehouse/play area.
