We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
Old Station Cottage is a charming property set in an idyllic rural location just outside the village of Garlieston.
Formed from the old railway station which closed in the early 60’s, now a charming two-bedroom cottage complemented by a grazing paddock.
In recent times, Old Station Cottage operated as a successful holiday let featuring two bedrooms, a comfortable living room and a kitchen/dining area.
Old Station Cottage is perfect for those seeking a peaceful rural lifestyle. The property benefits from a frequent daytime bus service, with a pickup point conveniently located at the end of the road.
Contained within these sales particulars is a floor plan showing the dimensions and layout of the cottage.
Occupying an elevated position, the property enjoys enclosed garden grounds and far-reaching views across open countryside and rolling hills.
As a former train station, the site offers a unique opportunity to acquire a historic and versatile property in one of the most picturesque parts of Scotland.
PLEASE NOTE: Threave Rural are also marketing Kilfillan Croft and Kilfillan agricultural building and yard, details of which can be found on our website.
