Situated in a picturesque location along Barhill Road, these plots are positioned near the tranquil Barhill Wood on the outskirts of Dalbeattie. This charming town lies within the valley of the River Urr, known for its rich greenery and community spirit. Dalbeattie boasts a supportive local community with a variety of amenities, including shops, small supermarkets, cafes, and restaurants. The town is equipped with essential services such as award-winning butchers, veterinary care, educational institutions ranging from nursery to secondary schools on a modern campus, as well as various recreational facilities.
In close proximity, Castle Douglas offers additional shopping options and is recognized for its culinary scene as Dumfries & Galloway’s Food Town. It features supermarkets and health services alongside leisure facilities like pools and sports clubs. For more extensive amenities, Dumfries is approximately 13 miles away and serves as the principal town in the area, providing a wider selection of schools and healthcare services including the Dumfries and Galloway Royal Infirmary.
Connectivity to this area is favorable; mainline railway access in both Dumfries and Lockerbie facilitates travel north and south. The M74 motorway can be reached within 42 miles, while Prestwick Airport (63 miles) provides regular flights across the UK and beyond.
The property includes two distinct plots. Plot 1 offers a manageable space suitable for building a home complete with parking and garden areas. Full planning details can be found on the Dumfries & Galloway Council portal under reference number 24/0698/PIP. Plot 2 presents an expansive opportunity ideal for developing a family-sized residence alongside a garage and sizable garden space—perfect for those looking to invest in property development or renovation projects. Relevant planning details are available under reference number 23/0608/FUL.
Both plots enjoy a prime position on Barhill Road, which transitions into scenic countryside while being surrounded by established residences that ensure privacy in this serene residential neighborhood.
It is important to note that both plots are currently un-serviced, meaning future buyers will need to arrange connections to utilities themselves; however, given the area's established nature, most services should be readily available nearby. There is also some flood risk associated with the southern boundary of Plot 2 due to its proximity to Barr Burn and Mill Lade—detailed flood maps can be reviewed for further information.
Previously existing overhead power lines have been relocated underground at the owner's expense to allow for any future building plans without obstruction. Access rights exist at Plot
