DESCRIPTION Mulloch House forms a stunning lifestyle package and occupies an elevated site on the edge of the village of New Galloway enjoying total privacy. Offering the best of both worlds with a rural/country feel, far reaching countryside views, yet just a short walk into the village. The current owners have overseen significant change to Mulloch House since they purchased in 2012. The farmhouse and newly formed Granary Cottage are both finished to a high standard, offering all the comforts and wants of modern living. The farmhouse, which has been extended by the current owners offers a fine balance of reception and bedroom space together with a stunning open plan kitchen/dining area which undoubtedly provides the hub of the home, with doors opening directly to the front patio and garden. Adjacent to one side are the two principal reception rooms, both with a dual aspect providing generous well-lit space with a Stovax Clearview wood burning stove in the sitting room and access to a chimney in the Living Room, should a wood burner or open fire be desired. Both rooms offering flexibility in use to fit the specific needs of the buyer. To the other side of the Kitchen space is a W.C. and a utility/boot room. An internal hallway leads to the principal bedroom with en-suite shower. A beautifully proportioned and well-lit bedroom, benefitting from a triple aspect with double doors opening directly to the garden. The first floor, with access via two staircases, offers 3 double bedrooms. Two bedrooms to the front, one of which offers an en suite bathroom and benefits from far reaching views of the countryside. The other with fitted cupboard space, connects directly to a walk in dressing area which then continues to the bathroom. This continues through to the first-floor landing area with office space and storage cupboard, three Velux windows flood the space with natural light. The final light and spacious bedroom provides a shower room en suite. Granary Cottage which has underfloor heating throughout, is a delightful 2-bedroom conversion from an original derelict farm building, enjoying stunning views down the valley and over the surrounding countryside. The reception space is open plan with a kitchen area, dining and living space combined, with doors connecting directly to the front garden. Adjoining is a utility room with plumbing/space for washing machine, fitted floor and wall units. A modern fitted shower room is also accessed from the open planned space.

With a separate studio space in the garden area. The grounds extend to about 12 acres in all and offer ideal grazing for livestock or equestrian. 3 acres of woodland with two paddocks extending to about 7 acres, together with the courtyard and garden including a small orchard with a range of fruit trees and bushes extending to about 12 acres in all. The current owners had a focus on efficiency of the home during much of their renovations, the wood pellet fired biomass boiler is a major contributor to that, running both the farmhouse and The Granary and returning about £7,700 p/a, 9 years currently remaining on that scheme. Mulloch House has been beautifully renovated and improved during the current tenure and now offers a delightful lifestyle property offering so many desirable attributes in a delightful private location.
