SITUATION The property is located within Hardgate which has an excellent, sought after primary school and nursery. The adjacent village of Haugh of Urr has a church, village hall with community events, and a popular public house which serves meals. The villages are positioned between the towns of Dalbeattie and Castle Douglas and are highly accessible to the A75. The market town of Castle Douglas is known as Dumfries and Galloway’s Food Town and has many local individual shops and businesses. There are both primary and secondary schools in the town along with supermarkets, health services, veterinary services and a thriving livestock market. Dalbeattie also has both primary and secondary schools, shops and services. Dumfries, some 13 miles east, is the principal town in the region, and provides a wider range of schools, high street shops, retail parks, and other services including a large hospital. Dumfries is also home to the Crichton Campus which offers further education courses at the University of Glasgow, and The University of the West of Scotland.DESCRIPTION Originally built in 1969, Craigard is a well-proportioned detached one and a half storey home which has been modernised to a very high standard both inside and out. Craigard offers a light and airy contemporary feel throughout, with an open plan kitchen/dining/living area which creates the ideal sociable family space at the heart. A separate sitting room provides more formal living space. The master suite is situated on the ground floor and cleverly incorporates a dressing room, wardrobe cupboard as well as an en suite. A useful utility space, boot room and WC complete the accommodation on this level. Upstairs are two double bedrooms, a family bathroom and a single bedroom, reached by a staircase with beautiful solid oak balustrades, which echoes the internal doors. The bedrooms benefit from integrated stroage space. The property gains from clever design, with spaces utilised to provide plentiful storage. Outside is a large garden with a generous parking and turning area, along with areas of lawn giving plenty of scope for kids, dogs and outside entertaining. A detached double garage has light and power, and a summer house provides somewhere to sit on chillier spring and summer nights. There are wonderful views across open farmland to the front, and the house is situated within very easy walking distance of the primary school. Craigard is a delightful family home in a desirable village location. ACCOMMODATION Ground Floor: Entrance Hall. Sitting Room. Open plan Kitchen/Dining/Living. Utililty Room. Boot Room. WC.
