Treetops, Eaglesfield, Lockerbie, DG11

Treetops is an excellent opportunity to acquire a unique property, perfectly designed for equestrian or small-scale agricultural purposes. Previously used to breed horses and cattle, the property features eleven top-quality Monarch internal stables, including four folding stables, a horse menage and land extending to 16.61 acres. The bungalow was constructed in 1997 and has been very well maintained and upgraded in the past three decades. The land is made up of four generously sized fields which benefit from good access and a natural water source.

The Accommodation

The bungalow is a spacious and versatile property which has been well maintained and upgraded in recent years. A barn-style door opens directly into the kitchen/dining room from the side. The kitchen was fully replaced in May 2022, featuring a range of white floor and base units with granite worktops incorporating a 1.5 bowl sink and integrated appliances including a NEFF eye level double oven and hob, Prima fridge, dishwasher and washing machine. The open plan aspect offers a dining area and glass door which opens out onto the garden and patio.

The primary entrance opens into the hallway which leads to the sleeping accommodation and family bathroom. There is a loft hatch with ladder access to a partial boarded loft along the full length which would be suitable for conversion subject to planning consents. The primary bedroom is situated at the rear of the property, enjoying pleasant views of the gardens and land, with the added benefit of fitted wardrobes. The second bedroom also featuring fitted wardrobes comfortably fits a small double bed and the third bedroom would be suitable for children or use as an office/study.

The family bathroom was refurbished the same time as the kitchen and comprises a large mains fed walk-in shower with glass screen, WC, white sink with vanity unit, and towel rail. The dual aspect of the living room creates a bright and welcoming entertainment space with beautiful views in both directions. For added warmth in the colder seasons, there is a freestanding wood burning stove set on a stone hearth. The sun room is double glazed with beautiful views of the expansive countryside, heightened by the suspension of the property.

Gardens, land and buildings

The property is accessed via a short private track from the main road. There is parking outside the main house with further parking at the end of the track where the outbuildings are located. The gardens wrap around the property, predominantly laid to lawn which extend across the stream accessed by a man-made wooden bridge. The gardens are lovely and feature a wonderful selection of exotic plants and mature shrubbery.

Complimented by an additional 15.51 acres of productive grazing, the land is made up of a hillside garden and four excellent sized grazing fields with good access from either side. The land is stock proof with a natural watercourse running through the land. Adjacent to the horse menage is a small paddock which could be used for lungeing or holding small livestock.

The principle outbuilding is constructed of concrete block with a steel frame portal. Measuring by 65ft x 30ft, the outbuilding is set on concrete foundations and benefits from water and electric. Internally, the owner has installed eleven top-quality Monarch stables, including four folding stables. There are additional timber frame bay sheds which have been erected for storage or may serve other purposes.

The property is registered with an agricultural holding number: 75/311/0089.
