Description
Kilfillan Croft and Old Station Cottage are charming properties set in an idyllic rural location just outside the village of Garlieston. Formerly the old railway station, these adjoining homes now comprise a private residence and a successful holiday cottage, complemented by grazing land and an agricultural building with a yard.
Both cottages are of traditional brick and slate construction, arranged on a single level. Kilfillan Croft offers three spacious bedrooms, a bright lounge with superb countryside views, a well-appointed kitchen and a practical utility room. Old Station Cottage, currently operated as a holiday let, features two bedrooms, a comfortable living room and a kitchen/dining area. Full floor plans and accommodation details are available within these particulars.
Occupying an elevated position, the properties enjoy generous gardens and far-reaching views across open countryside and rolling hills. As a former train station, the site offers a unique opportunity to acquire a historic and versatile property in one of the most picturesque parts of Scotland.
Accessed via private driveways, both homes provide ample parking, with Kilfillan Croft also benefiting from a convenient turning circle. The beautifully landscaped grounds feature sweeping lawns, mature trees, vegetable beds, grazing land and agricultural building, perfect for those seeking a peaceful rural lifestyle with business potential. The property benefits from a frequent daytime bus service, with a pickup point conveniently located at the end of the road.
Garlieston is a charming coastal village on the Solway Coast of the Machars Peninsula, nestled between Wigtown and the Isle of Whithorn. This picturesque and peaceful harbour town offers a welcoming community with a primary school, village pub, café, and shop.
