A CHARMING BEAUTIFULLY PRESENTED TRADITIONAL COTTAGE OCCUPYING AN ELEVATED SITE ENJOYING STUNNING COASTAL VIEWS FROM THE GARDEN AND SPECTACULAR DARK SKIES
Kirkmaiden Cottage is located in a stunning rural setting on the Rhins of Galloway peninsula, which remains an unspoiled paradise for locals and visitors on the lookout for peace and tranquillity and is also home to the Mull of Galloway, Scotland’s most Southerly point.
Kirkmaiden Cottage is a detached beautifully presented Galloway cottage set on an elevated site within the pretty hamlet of Kirkmaiden which lies in the most southerly parish in Scotland, a mile above the village of Drummore. The cottage offers well-presented, cosy and welcoming family accommodation over two floors incorporating an open plan lounge / kitchen /diner, three en-suite double bedrooms, conservatory / sitting room & a utility room / boot room.
The cottage has generous garden grounds wrapping around the rear extending to about 50m in length. Steps from Courtyard lead to a concreted patio area with large raised beds backed by dry stone walling to Kirkmaiden Old Church. Beyond the patio area the garden ground is laid mainly to grass and a variety of shrubs and a small orchard containing apple and plum trees. Stone remains of small building, once a school, adjacent to the Kirkmaiden Old Church grounds, are part of the garden area. Views over many miles of countryside and farmland as well as, to the west, the Irish Sea and extensive views east to Luce Bay, the Machars Peninsula, Cairnsmore and ranges of mountains beyond. This would be the perfect setting for siting a summerhouse with areas set aside for alfresco dining and family or social entertaining. The garden to the front offers off road concreted parking for 2 vehicles with areas planted with variety of shrubs and small trees along with a gravelled area for seating. The garden to the side has a small rose bed and storage for wheelie bins, with a bespoke door to rear courtyard.
In addition, given the location and benefitting from very little light pollution, the dark skies are absolutely spectacular and in more recent months the Aurora Borealis, nature's very own theatrical performer, has provided some astounding shows of bright, swirling curtains of lights in the night sky.
