Description
The Old Lifeboat House was designed in 2009, built around the first Kirkcudbright Lifeboat Station dating from 1862. The original stone structure has been retained and extended with modern features to form a high quality individual home, set in its own ground, in the heart of Kirkcudbright. This beautifully presented property provides spacious, light-filled, flexible accommodation arranged over two floors and features oak wood finishes throughout, stone tiled flooring and downlights.

A guest bedroom and adjoining wet room complete the ground floor.
