The property
4 Hornel Road is a mid-terrace home enjoying a peaceful location on a cul-de-sac and with a good outlook to the south west across the Dee Estuary. At present this is best appreciated from the front bedroom, but could also be enjoyed from the sitting room if the hedge was removed and a suitable fence constructed in its place. The property benefits from uPVC double glazing throughout with windows incorporating ventilation strips, and gas central heating with all radiators having thermostatic controls (except the shower room). As a mid-terrace property, it should be comparatively inexpensive to heat. The design of the house incorporates good built-in storage. 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. Outside Easily maintained front garden facing towards the estuary with paved path leading to the front door. Gravel to one side and paved area immediately adjacent to the house.

There is a wooden shed. Rotary clothes dryer. A gate in the rear fence opens to a generous shared parking area.
