Recently renovated 4-bed cottage on a large plot with panoramic loch views.
Lochside setting with unrestricted views over White Loch of Myrton
Set on the north edge of the White Loch of Myrton, Kennels Cottage is a recently renovated four-bedroom detached cottage offering expansive, unrestricted loch views and a generous private plot of about 0.44 acres. The house has been modernised to provide an open-plan kitchen/family room and a separate sitting room with dual-aspect patio doors. A double-sided wood-burning stove serves both reception rooms, creating a warm, social hub for family life.
The ground floor includes a flexible bedroom with an en suite shower room that also has separate access from the entrance hall — useful for guests or multi-generational living. Upstairs are three further bedrooms and a family bathroom. Practical systems include LPG-fired central heating, double glazing and drainage to a private septic tank.
Externally the cottage sits within the historic Monreith Estate policy grounds and benefits from lakeside setting, privacy and countryside access. However, a range of former outbuildings included with the sale are in poor, dilapidated condition and will require demolition or substantial rebuild. The property is remote: mobile signal is average and broadband speeds are very slow, which may affect home working. Council tax is above average and the local area is classified as very deprived.
Kennels Cottage will suit buyers seeking a characterful lochside family home or a lifestyle purchase in a quiet rural setting with immediate move-in accommodation and scope to improve ancillary buildings. The location offers country pursuits, coastal villages and nearby amenities in Port William and larger services at Newton Stewart, while also forming part of the wider Monreith Estate landscape.
