Built in 2000 and extensively upgraded by the current owners over the last five years, the property occupies around 0.45 acres of landscaped gardens in the village of Carsluith in Dumfries and Galloway.

Marion Currie, who is handling the sale on behalf of Galbraith, said: “Kilgaradh is a rare opportunity to acquire a home that combines traditional cottage character with modern practicality, all within a spectacular garden setting above Wigtown Bay.

“A range of buyers will be attracted to this property which offers both immediate comfort and excellent lifestyle appeal.”

The cottage has been thoughtfully designed for both everyday living and entertaining. The heart of the home is the kitchen which is centered around a gas-powered Rayburn that provides cooking, heating and hot water. An archway leads through to the dining room, creating a sociable flow ideal for hosting guests, whilst the sitting room features a multi-fuel stove set within an impressive fireplace.

Three generous bedrooms provide flexible accommodation and a large floored attic offers excellent potential for conversion.

The home also benefits from mains gas central heating, smart metering and innovative AirEx smart air bricks introduced in 2024 to improve energy efficiency and comfort.

Outside, the grounds include specimen trees, orchards, vegetable plots, a productive polytunnel, greenhouse, workshop garage and areas dedicated to rewilding and biodiversity. Red squirrels, woodpeckers and a variety of garden birds are frequent visitors.
