The Stables, 4 St Mary Street, Kirkcudbright

Well-proportioned characterful home, which dates back to 1850 when it was previously the stables and hay loft for 129 High Street. This charming home provides light and airy accommodation a short walk away from all local amenities.

Kirkcudbright is an attractive harbour town situated on the banks of the River Dee. The town itself is of historic and architectural interest with its ancient High Street, Tolbooth Arts Centre, Stewartry Museum and numerous galleries. Long frequented by artists, Kirkcudbright was home to the renowned artist, EA Hornel, one of the “Glasgow Boys”. This tradition is maintained today by a flourishing colony of painters and craft workers which has led to Kirkcudbright being named the “Artists’ Town”.

Kirkcudbright enjoys a wide variety of mainly family owned shops, pubs, hotels and restaurants, whilst offering a wide range of facilities, including its own swimming pool, golf course, marina, bowling green, squash & tennis courts and an active summer festivities programme, including its own Jazz Festival and Tattoo. There is also a modern primary school, secondary school and health centre.
