corner from the sunken patio, to the fernery, areas of lawn
and the vegetable plot, and at every time of the year.

GENERAL
Montrose sits in a quiet and leafy residential street of
Dalbeattie, and is one of the most imposing and striking
residences in the town. Dalbeattie has a good range of
shops, schools and services, whilst Castle Douglas (6 miles
distant) has a wide range of shopping along King Street
as well as two large supermarkets. There is a strong
sense of community within Dalbeattie, with many events
throughout the year including the popular civic week, Civic
Daze, in August. Dumfries has a large hospital, leisure
centre, hotels, a cinema, popular high street shops, and
the unversities of both Glasgow and the West of Scotland

is the local Artists town with a number of galleries offering a
range of exhibitions throughout the year.
The South West of Scotland is well known for its mild
climate, attractive unspoilt countryside and the diversity
of sporting and recreational pursuits. There is good hill
walking in the nearby Galloway Hills and cycling along
designated cycle routes, as well the Seven Stanes
mountain bike routes in the region’s forests, the nearest
of which is Dalbeattie Forest itself. The Galloway Forest
Park has been designated the first Dark Skies Park outside
of the USA, and can be reached in around 40 minutes.
There are varied sporting opportunities such as shooting
and stalking, as well as trout and salmon fishing on the
regions numerous lochs and rivers. For golf enthusiasts
there is the nearby championship course at Southerness,
12 miles away, and there are several other courses nearby.

DESCRIPTION
Montrose was built around the late 1920’s for a local
business owner of the day. Unusually, the house is of brick
construction, rather than the signature granite of most of
the town’s older dwellings and public buildings. The
bricks came from the town’s brick and tile works, which
was across the road just down from where the High School
now stands. The house was extended to the rear in the
1940’s, and modernised by the current owners to provide
a spacious and comfortable family home.
Communications to the area are very good. There is a
main line railway station in Dumfries and also Lockerbie
providing excellent links to both the north and south.
The M74 motorway network can be reached in about 40
minutes and there are regular flights to other parts of the
UK, Ireland and Continental Europe from Prestwick Airport
which is about one and half hours drive to the North.
Edinburgh and Glasgow can be reached in less than two
hours.
Of particular note is the beautiful entrance hallway,
wide and light with restored original timber flooring, and
stunning staircase. On the turn of the stair, a stiking stained
and leaded glass window dominates, and although was
