Although accessed from Mews Lane, the front of the property is adjacent to St Mary Street and enjoys a pleasant outlook across the Soaperie Gardens to the church and the estuary. The property is in good condition and pleasantly decorated; most recently being used for holiday letting purposes and would be ideal for a purchaser with this use in mind, though the property would also serve well as a home.

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 golf course, marina, swimming pool and an active summer festivities programme, including its own Jazz Festival and Tattoo.

Garden Immediately adjacent to this garage and accessed from the communal garden is an enclosed area partly finished in concrete and partly with pebbles for ease of maintenance. There are higher walls on the north and east sides whilst the walls to the south, and particular to the west are lower making this area something of a sun trap.
