Cottage for sale in Mainsriddle (Coast Road), Dumfries DG2

Inverkells is situated just off the A710 Coast Road not far from the wonderful seaside villages dotted along this coast and benefits from far reaching views over the Solway Coast towards the Lake District Hills.

Inverkells is an historical building with the original structure dating back to circa 1792 with the annex dated around 1800 and was originally a coaching Inn. The property is now a wonderful family home offering accommodation over two floors and with the inclusion of the linked annex, there is potential for extended family living or indeed to develop some self-catering accommodation. To the rear are generous, mature garden grounds which are mainly laid to lawns, mature trees and shrubs with the Kells Burn forming the eastern boundary.

From the front of the cottage, fabulous views across the surrounding farmland over the Solway Coast and towards the Lake District Hills can be enjoyed on a daily basis, along with a plethora of native birds and wildlife. Situated almost in the middle of the coast between Dalbeattie and Dumfries, Inverkells offers the perfect location for those wishing to undertake water sports, walks in the nearby hills and cycling in the nearby woodlands. Dalbeattie Woods and its Seven Stanes cycle track are within easy reach as are the popular villages along the coast such as Kippford, affectionately known as ‘The Scottish Riviera’. For the less vigorous, the ever-changing panorama of sea, dark skies and distant Cumbrian hills are a splendid sight. Situated on the scenic north shore of the Solway coast, the rspb reserve at Mersehead is an extensive wetland and saltmarsh area, a haven for breeding waders, wintering waterfowl and year-round bird and wildlife-watching.
