5 Hestan Court, Rockcliffe, Dalbeattie, Dumfries and Galloway, DG5

SITUATION
5 Hestan Court sits elevated above the village in a quiet residential area in the sought after coastal village of Rockcliffe. Rockcliffe is a popular holiday and summer destination, with a quaint waterfront of detached properties, many of which are the original Victorian villas built to enjoy the benefits of the mild climate and sea swimming. Today, Rockcliffe beach is still popular with swimmers and holiday makers alike. Much of the land surrounding the village is in the care of The National Trust for Scotland and is very picturesque. Mote of Mark is the site of a 5th & 6th century fort, and there are stunning views from the top. There are walks from Rockcliffe along the coastal path to Sandyhills, as well as a woodland walk over to the neighbouring village of Kippford.

Shops, schools, and services are available in Dalbeattie and Castle Douglas, with a broader range available in Dumfries, the regional capital some 20 miles east. A small shop is situated in nearby Colvend, along with a primary school, and there are two pubs in Kippford, where there is also a yacht club and moorings.

There are mainline train stations in Dumfries and Lockerbie, with access to the motorway network at Moffat (M74), Lockerbie (M74) and Gretna (M6). Glasgow and Edinburgh airports are both around 2 hours’ drive away.


DESCRIPTION
5 Hestan Court is a delightful and spacious home on a single level, set in a quiet cul-de-sac in the popular coastal village of Rockcliffe.

Patio doors lead from the dining area, which in combination with the conservatory truly brings the outside in, particularly in the summer months. A charming brick fireplace houses a wood burning stove, providing both a focal point and additional heat in the colder months. A utility room provides a place for both laundry facilities and muddy boots when returning from one of the many wonderful walks nearby. Three generous bedrooms are ideal for family life or for overnight guests. A family shower room serves the bedrooms and a cloakroom WC is opposite the living room for day guests. A garage completes the accommodation. A generous garden wraps around the house, more fully described below.

A path leads to the front door and across the front of the house. Borders with mature shrubs add colour and interest. A useful grassed area extends forward from the side with a path leading to the garden shed, and is given privacy by mature trees, hedging and shrubs. To the rear is a generous lawned area bound by hedging, trees and shrubs and also by the Mill Burn to one side, which gives the soothing sound of running water for relaxing summer days in the garden. A paved area runs across the back of the house, with steps down from the patio doors. There is plenty of scope for outside entertaining and also for the garden to be developed further with extra beds or vegetable beds if desired.
