This property is situated in a picturesque location along Barhill Road, adjacent to the serene Barhill Wood and just on the outskirts of Dalbeattie. Nestled in the valley of the River Urr, Dalbeattie is enriched with a vibrant community atmosphere and offers a variety of local amenities, including shops, cafes, restaurants, and several award-winning businesses. The area boasts excellent educational facilities within a modern campus that caters to nursery, primary, and secondary students. Furthermore, residents have access to various recreational options such as parks with boating lakes, bowling greens, sports clubs, and a nine-hole golf course.
The nearby market town of Castle Douglas serves as an additional resource for daily needs, known as Dumfries & Galloway’s Food Town with its diverse shopping selections and health services. Dumfries itself is only about 13 miles away and provides broader access to retail outlets, schools, medical facilities including the Dumfries and Galloway Royal Infirmary, as well as higher education opportunities at the local university campuses.
Transportation links are well-established in this region. Mainline railway stations in Dumfries and Lockerbie connect residents efficiently to other parts of Scotland, while major road networks such as the M74 are conveniently accessible. For those requiring air travel options, Prestwick Airport is approximately 63 miles away.
The property consists of two plots that present distinct opportunities for renovation or development. Plot 1 offers potential for a compact home alongside a designated parking area and manageable garden space. Meanwhile, Plot 2 stands out with ample room for a spacious family residence complemented by a garage; perfect for those looking to invest in a larger living space amidst this welcoming community.
Both plots enjoy an attractive setting on Barhill Road as it extends into the countryside. While neighboring properties provide some sense of community privacy remains intact within this tranquil area.
It is important to note that both plots are currently unserviced; buyers will need to arrange connections for necessary utilities which should be accessible given the established residential character of the neighborhood.
Additionally, while there is minor flood risk associated with Plot 2 due to nearby watercourses affecting mainly properties further south, prospective buyers can review detailed flood maps for peace of mind.
Prior overhead power cables have already been relocated underground at the owner’s expense, allowing for easier construction possibilities without previous hindrances. A right-of-way exists at Plot 2's southern boundary over neighboring land; however, this has not been actively utilized recently.
