Description
Little Cocklick offers a rare opportunity to acquire a secluded rural smallholding set along a private track, comprising a farmhouse requiring renovation, attached derelict bothy, grazing land and a range of traditional agricultural buildings. Surrounded by beautiful countryside, the property enjoys a peaceful and highly private setting with no immediate neighbours, ideally suited to those seeking a rural lifestyle opportunity.
The farmhouse is arranged over two floors and offers spacious accommodation throughout. Requiring a degree of refurbishment and modernisation, it provides an exceptional blank canvas with the potential to create a superb family home. Attached to the farmhouse is a derelict cottage/bothy, which may lend itself to a variety of uses.
To the rear of the property lies a traditional farm steading comprising a range of barns and byres, which may offer development potential (subject to the necessary consents), or could provide useful space for livestock, storage or workshop use. Little Cocklick further benefits from its own private access, a pond and a grazing paddock. In all, the property extends to just under 4 acres.
HOME REPORT
There is no requirement for a home report given that the property is mixed use and benefits from an agricultural holding number.
The property is located within easy driving distance of the town of Dalbeattie, which provides a wide range of everyday amenities, including a modern school catering from nursery through to secondary education. The town also offers a variety of retail and professional services, together with a medical practice and leisure facilities. A wider selection of shops, supermarkets and services can be found in the nearby market town of Castle Douglas, while the regional centre of Dumfries provides a university campus, a major hospital, retail parks, high street shopping and larger supermarkets.
