Set on a quiet residential street in Dumfries, this Victorian semi-detached home offers traditional character, generous room proportions and practical outdoor space for family life. The property is chain-free and ready for a buyer seeking immediate occupancy or a sympathetic modernisation to realise further value.
Ground floor living includes a bay-fronted living room and separate dining room, both with feature fireplaces and good natural light. The kitchen has fitted base units and direct access to a private rear garden laid mainly to lawn — ideal for children and outdoor entertaining. Off-street parking is provided by a driveway to the side.
Upstairs are three bedrooms and a family bathroom. The house benefits from gas central heating and double glazing, though the age of some fittings is unknown and much of the interior will suit updating. The solid Victorian build and high ceilings provide scope for refurbishment and energy-efficiency improvements (cavity walls currently assumed uninsulated).
Location is convenient for families: highly regarded primary schools (Laurieknowe, Troqueer) and Dumfries Academy are nearby, while the town centre, college/university campus and local transport links are within easy reach. Buyers should note the surrounding area has pockets of deprivation and the property requires modernisation to reach its full potential.
