Nether Cottage is a compact, traditional single-storey stone cottage set in the village of Crocketford, midway between Dumfries and Castle Douglas. The house offers a cosy living room with a stove, a practical kitchen, two bedrooms (plus a room used as an office/occasional third bedroom) and a shower room. The front presents a small paved forecourt while a large enclosed rear garden provides valuable outdoor space.
The property has genuine cottage character and good scope for value uplift through sympathetic internal modernisation. It is freehold, has excellent mobile signal and average broadband speeds. Practical faults to note are a shared shed in need of repair, limited on-street parking and generally small internal floor area typical of older cottages.
This home will suit first-time buyers or downsizers wanting a manageable single-level property, and it also offers buy-to-let potential given the village location and access to Dumfries and Castle Douglas. Buyers should budget for internal updating and minor repairs rather than expecting move-in‑ready presentation. The surrounding rural setting gives easy access to countryside recreation but the wider area is classified as relatively deprived, which may affect local services and long-term rental yields.
