3 bed end terrace house for sale

Rathan House, New Galloway DG7

Rathan House in New Galloway is a substantial end of terrace house located in a central location in the Glenkens village of New Galloway. The ground floor of this characterful property was originally four shop fronts and has been beautifully converted to provide bright and spacious reception rooms and farmhouse style kitchen with an abundance of natural light from large dual aspect windows to front and rear.

New Galloway has its own primary school, doctor’s surgery and active community attractions including the CatStrand, the Smithy, local shop, local pubs and local post office. The village is also well served by public transport links, north to Dalry and beyond and south to Castle Douglas (some 14 miles away) and beyond. Dalry has a secondary school which is complemented by Castle Douglas High School after fourth year.

Castle Douglas is a thriving Galloway market town, lying approximately 18 miles south-west of Dumfries and enjoying an enviable range of shops and other facilities in a town now promoted as a “Food Town”. The town also has a wide range of facilities including excellent primary and secondary schools, modern Health Centre, supermarkets and a thriving community run theatre, The Fullarton, nearby. The Dumfries and Galloway Region is renowned for its beautiful countryside with rolling pastures broken by stone dykes and amenity woodland with a rugged
coastline. Benefiting from the Gulf Stream, the general climate is mild and there are consequently many beautiful gardens nearby including the National Trust Gardens at Threave.
