The property

Traditional stone built detached house in an elevated position on the edge of New Galloway. Duneira is a spacious detached home located on the edge of New Galloway. This delightful property offers surprisingly spacious accommodation throughout which is sure to make the property attractive to a number of different purchasers. Located along a quiet road just off the main street, Duneira has a superb elevated position overlooking the village across to the Galloway Hills providing fine views from each of the rooms to the front of the property, as well as from the main garden. The Glenkens, scenically, is a delightful area and New Galloway at its heart used to be the smallest "Royal Burgh" in Scotland. That focus, and indication of civic pride, may explain why it has a surprising range of immediately local facilities for such a small town - there is a challenging 9-hole Golf Course affording magnificent views, hotels, an excellent Tea Room, a Post Office and community run modern General Store, a Medical Practice, two Churches (Church of Scotland and Scottish Episcopalian), a well-regarded Primary School with a Secondary School three miles away at Dalry, and a modern and dynamic Community & Arts Centre at The Cat Strand. A whole range of rural pursuits are easily obtainable nearby, with the emphasis on walking, cycling, water sports and fishing. The property is set in a scenic rural location, but many larger centres are easily accessible - Ayr is approx 1 hour north, Dumfries approx 45 minutes east, Castle Douglas approx 20 minutes south, Newton Stewart approx 30 minutes west and Kirkcudbright approx 30 minutes south. The Dumfries and Galloway Region is renowned for its beautiful countryside with rolling pastures broken by stone dykes and amenity woodland with a rugged coastline. Benefiting from the Gulf Stream, the general climate is mild and there are consequently many beautiful gardens nearby including the National Trust Gardens at Threave. Outside This lovely home has a spacious garden which is mainly laid to lawn and is well stocked with a variety of mature shrubs, roses, and fruit trees. There are 2 vegetable plots. A wooden garden shed provides storage for tools and a place for potting plants. There is a pedestrian gate leading from Westport through the front garden to the main entrance as well as a driveway to the rear of the property providing off-street parking and easy access for bikes etc. To the rear of Duneira is a sheltered patio area, a real sun trap, providing an ideal spot to enjoy "alfresco" dining. Barn Well-proportioned stone barn with slabbed floor, stone walls and slate roof. Metal glazed window to the rear. Built-in cupboards and shelving with power. This space could be suitable for a variety of uses.
