We are delighted to bring to the market this substantial detached period property set within an extensive garden plot bounded by Dalbeattie burn and overlooking Colliston park, on the western approach into Dalbeattie town. The impressive granite structure of the main house retains many original features including delicate cornice work, painted glasswork and traditional style fireplaces. In recent years the property has seen use as a guest house, and latterly a hotel. The present owners, through extensive and thorough renovation, have returned Burnside House to a beautiful six bedroom family residence. There is still the potential for dual business/residential use and further development, especially to the integral multi car garage, subject to relevant planning consent. Viewing of this unique property is essential to fully appreciate the location, accommodation and development options on offer.

LOCATION
Burnside House is situated in a pleasant residential area close to the centre of Dalbeattie, offering good access to a range of local amenities and services including shops, schools, banks, a medical centre and public transport links. The popular coastal holiday villages of Rockcliffe and Kippford are both less than seven miles away, and there are a host of outdoor pursuits available in the surrounding area including cycling, mountain biking and walking in the town woods and 7Stanes cycle tracks in Dalbeattie Forrest, sailing, horse riding and golf.
