Menu
Braeside is a substantial detached family home, in need of some modernisation throughout. This spacious property is located in a private location a short distance away from the local amenities of Creetown and within easy reach of the A75.
The property benefits from a large tarmacadam driveway and substantial detached workshop / garage to front.
The village of Creetown sits close to the A75 Euro Route, which allows quick access to be taken to other nearby towns, such as Gatehouse of Fleet (approximately 12 miles), and Newton Stewart (approximately 6 miles), where there is a wider range of facilities available. Creetown itself offers facilities including village shop, butchers shop, nursery and primary school, dispensing GP surgery, filling and MOT station, Gem Rock Museum and local history museum, performing arts facilities, playing fields with MUGA, community woodlands and youth club.
Creetown is well served by public transport with the bus stop for journeys to the East and West of the region a short walk away from the property. There are many beautiful sandy beaches and rocky coves within easy reach, and equally dramatic inland scenery, with magnificent hills, glens and lochs. Galloway Forest Park is particularly convenient. A wide variety of outdoor pursuits can be enjoyed in the area, including sailing, fishing, golf, cycling and hill walking.
Newton Stewart is a busy Galloway market town set on the banks of the River Cree in a genuinely rural area and regarded by many as the gateway to the Galloway hills. There is a museum, leisure centre, post office, banks, cinema and a wide range of shops, offices, businesses, hotels and restaurants.
The area has a wide range of sport and outdoor activities with opportunities to take shooting in the area, fishing on the nearby rivers, golf, and with an extensive range of walks and cycle paths.
