Harbour Row, Isle Of Whithorn DG8

A traditional stone-built two-bedroom terraced cottage occupying an excellent harbour-front position in the coastal village of Isle of Whithorn.

The kitchen is well proportioned and fitted with a range of floor and wall-mounted units together with a central island and Belfast-style sink. It opens directly into a separate dining area, creating a spacious kitchen/dining arrangement, with further French doors providing access to the garden.

There are two good-sized bedrooms. The principal bedroom is positioned to the front of the property and enjoys views across the harbour, while also benefiting from its own en-suite shower room. The second bedroom is also generously proportioned. A separate bathroom completes the accommodation.

Externally, the enclosed rear garden is arranged over several levels and incorporates gravelled and paved areas, established shrubs and planting, stone-built boundaries and a timber garden shed. Steps lead through the upper sections of the garden, from where there is an open outlook towards the surrounding countryside and coastline.

The property’s combination of substantial single-storey accommodation, two bathroom facilities, harbour-front setting and established rear garden makes it an unusual property within the village.
