Description
A parcel of farmland extending to approximately 11.27 hectares (27.85 acres) in total and ranging from 20m to 55m above sea level.

The land sits to the east of Laurieston Road and has two access gateways from Laurieston Road and one from a private lane in the south east corner of the land parcel. It should be noted that there is presently no march fence along the boundary as shown between A and B on the sale plan.
Location
The land is located on the edge of Gatehouse of Fleet, an historic and bustling town situated at the mouth of the Water of Fleet and only 10 miles west of Kirkcudbright. Dumfries and Galloway is renowned for its mild climate and one of the earliest growing seasons in the country. The region of southwest Scotland is a genuinely rural area well known for dairy and livestock farming, magnificent countryside, extensive forestry and a scenic coastline. This is a conveniently located block of pasture land which could be a useful addition to an existing farm business, or equally used for lifestyle and equestrian interests.
Acreage: 27.85 Acres
