Description

Originally built in the 1851, Morison House is an attractive stone-built detached home occupying a private picturesque position in a highly sought after much admired location nestled within the charming, historic spa town of Moffat in Dumfries and Galloway.

Lovingly maintained and upgraded for over two decades by the current owners who have been magnificent custodians of this period gem, Morison House is a bright and airy welcoming family home completely at one with its surroundings affording great privacy and views over the local countryside and beyond.

Extending to some 2,400 sq ft of well proportioned, versatile accommodation across two floors including a extension in 2001, this is a home which blends traditional character and modern comfort and offers a rare opportunity to enjoy rural life within easy reach of local amenities and excellent transport links North and South of the border.

As you approach the property along the tree-lined driveway you get an immediate sense of peace, privacy and shelter and first glimpse of the Whinstone exterior of this striking period home.

The entrance porch leads to a broad welcoming hallway and to the lounge, sitting/dining room, dining kitchen and a rear hall which gives access to the utility room and WC.

On the upper level the landing leads to the principle en-suite bedroom and four further spacious double bedrooms, home office and family bathroom. There is also access to the loft by hatch and pull down ladder.

This is a home that enjoys a seamless connection to the garden and outdoors throughout the seasons, with double doors opening up from the kitchen directly into the magnificent gardens.
