Northburn occupies an idyllic rural location just west of Bankshill Village, situated off the B7068 Lockerbie to Langholm Road. The property is within easy reach of the main M74 arterial route.
This exceptional traditionally built four bedroomed modernised property lies within its own lands, which extend in total to about 22.98 acres. The property benefits from a refurbished stable block, which may have further development potential given that the regional council looks favourably on change of use from vernacular rural buildings to residential dwellings. However, any interested parties would need to make their own enquiries in this respect.
Given the location of the property and the surrounding countryside, the property attracts a wealth and variety of wildlife.
Local services are found within the busy market town of Lockerbie, which offers all essential services with a comprehensive range of leisure facilities, a modern health centre, a wide range of professional services as well as two national supermarkets. Both primary and secondary schooling are highly rated and available within the town. The nearest Primary School can be found in the local village of Bankshill, within a mile of the property.
