2 Bed Terraced House, Single Let, Kirkcudbright, DG6 4UE £290,000

The kitchen is well appointed for modern life and has attractive fitted units with solid oak doors and Karndean floor tiles on a raised floor which preserves the original stone paved floor below, and the floor is also done this way in the family bathroom, which features a bespoke solid yew countertop with wash hand basin set in, and storage beneath. The WC is hidden in a bespoke wooden cabinet, adding to the charm of this unusual home. Fitted woodwork is by Ian Cameron-Smith (cameronsmithdesigns.co.uk).

The stairs to the first floor, or former pigeon loft from which the property takes its name, have handcrafted handrails leading up to the main bedroom. This striking room features a round window, around which a bespoke ash bedframe curves, with matching illuminated bedside tables, designed and created by Ian Cameron-Smith (cameronsmithdesigns.co.uk) – NB. this furniture is available by separate negotiation. Leading up from the bedroom are further stairs which land in the fabulous living room which features a bespoke jungle wallpaper mural on one wall and is flooded with light from the pagoda windows and the two large main windows. A flame effect electric fire is mounted in a room divider which hides the stairs and also has a small desk area.

Outside is a generous garden, mainly laid to lawn with a raised deck BBQ and seating area, and a wonderful summerhouse/garden room which features a wood burning stove and a sauna. It has been used as extra bedroom accommodation for visiting family in the past and would also make a wonderful home office.

In short, The Pigeon Loft is a rare opportunity to acquire a unique and history-steeped home which could serve equally well as a second home offering quirky accommodation for family, friends and guests, or as a full-time residence as has been the case for the last 20 years.
