Carse of Trostrie is a delightful portfolio of three cottages located in a quiet rural location a short distance from the village of Twynholm and the A75. These charming properties consist of the Main House, Middle Cottage and Carse Cottage. With the Main House and Middle Cottage being linked by way of an inner hallway and Carse Cottage being self-contained. The current owners live in the Main House and rent out both Middle Cottage and Carse Cottage as successful self-catering accommodation. Due to the flexible nature of the layout and potential to produce additional income we believe that these beautifully presented properties are sure to suit a number of different buyers. (It should be noted that all properties have their own front and rear doors with access directly out to the garden) For those buyers who perhaps need a larger main residence, Middle Cottage and the Main House can easily form a spacious main residence, with Carse Cottage retained as a self-contained annexe, for a family member or for providing an additional income stream. Twynholm is an active community benefiting from a Primary School, Garage (which also offers many of the facilities of a village shop), and a Pub/Hotel. There are many community activities organised in the nearby Village Hall. Twynholm provides easy access to the main road through the area, the A75. Further facilities are available in Kirkcudbright approximately 3½ miles away, which is an attractive harbour town situated on the banks of the River Dee. Of historic and architectural interest with its ancient High Street, Kirkcudbright Galleries, Tolbooth Arts Centre, Stewartry Museum and numerous smaller independent galleries. Long frequented by artists it was home to the renowned artist, EA Hornel, one of the "Glasgow Boys". Kirkcudbright is popular with tourists attracted by the well renowned galleries and maintains a flourishing colony of artists and craft workers which has led to it being called 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: The cottages at Carse of Trostrie are well positioned within wrap round garden grounds extending to approximately 1 acre, to the side and rear of the property is a gravel parking area providing ample parking and turning space for a number of cars and a large shed with attached wood store.
