Burnside Villa is a traditional detached stone cottage in the picturesque
village of Balmaclellan. This charming property benefits from a good size
garden with large gravel parking area to one side and further parking at the
front. To the rear of the property is a large garden and the size of the plot
may suggest it could accommodate a second dwelling and there is plenty of room
for extension to this property subject to appropriate planning consents.
Balmaclellan is just off the main A712 from New Galloway to Crocketford via
Corsock. It is convenient for the A713 that runs from Castle Douglas to Ayr.
The village itself is quietly situated and has a good community. There is a
village shop, excellent village hall and Men’s Shed which are the focus of
community events. The pretty church is noted for its “Old Mortality” statue in
the church yard.
Balmaclellan has three access roads which all conjoin in the centre of the
village. If you approach from the A713 turn of the A713 on to the A712 Corsock
Road at the Kenbridge Hotel, take the first turning left then the first right
in to the village. In the centre of the village opposite the shop turn left
and Burnside Villa is situated on the right hand side of this road about half
way along. (From Corsock on the A712 take the first road in to the village and
Burnside is situated on the left).
