Ervie, Stranraer, DG9

Steeped in history and character, this distinguished four-bedroom detached former manse offers an exceptional opportunity to acquire a Grade II listed residence set within a tranquil rural setting. Arranged over two spacious levels, the property exudes period charm, from the elegant spindle and rail staircase to the intricate cornice work and beautifully preserved internal woodwork and doors. Generously proportioned living spaces provide a welcoming environment for family life, with a recently installed kitchen at the heart of the home, thoughtfully designed to blend contemporary convenience within a traditional style property. The well-proportioned family shower room offers both practicality and comfort, while oil central heating (with a new boiler installed in the recent past) and wood-burning stoves ensure warmth and cosiness throughout the seasons. This remarkable home also benefits from ample off-road parking and the flexibility of two outbuildings, ideal for storage, hobbies or potential conversion (subject to any necessary consents).

Outside, Ervie Manse is enveloped by its own secluded garden grounds, extending to approximately 1.25 acres and providing a peaceful retreat from the bustle of every-day life. Expansive lawns offer a perfect setting for outdoor entertaining, family gatherings or simply relaxing amidst the beauty of nature. Mature shrubs and an enchanting area of woodland create a sense of privacy and seclusion, with the grounds thoughtfully landscaped to complement the period architecture of the house. Dedicated off-street parking for multiple vehicles ensures convenience for residents and guests alike, while the substantial grounds offer endless opportunities for gardening, recreation or enjoying the tranquil surroundings.
