Knockneen Croft

Knockneen Croft is situated about 3.5 miles northwest of Kirkcolm and about 8.5 miles north of the bustling town of Stranraer. Knockneen Croft lies in a stunning scenic region known as the Rhins of Galloway Peninsular, which is favoured with a mild climate, given the proximity of the gulf stream to the coastline.

Knockneen Croft is a traditional detached dwellinghouse, with no immediate neighbours, which has been sympathetically modernised to a very high standard. The property is approached by its own private driveway where there is ample parking for several vehicles. The dwellinghouse offers spacious and bright accommodation throughout includes a lounge with open plan sun lounge, kitchen / breakfast room, double bedroom, porch, utility room and family bathroom on the ground floor. The first floor offers two good sized bedrooms, one being ensuite and a further study/single bedroom which is perfect for those working from home. A feature of the property is the grazing land of about 4.67 acres along with an outbuilding (about 1,000 sq. ft), which is currently utilised as a workshop and garage space but could lend itself to many different uses. The mature gardens have a wide range of lawns, shrubs and flowering plants and there is a dedicated ‘growing’ garden with a greenhouse, potting tables and a cold frame. The whole property has huge potential for some self-sufficient living.

Given the fabulous location of Knockneen Croft, it attracts a variety of native wildlife such as Roe deer and many different species of birds. Knockneen Croft offers peace and tranquillity with far reaching sea views where ferries, cruise ships and fishing boats can be spotted on a daily basis. Views across Ireland include the Mourne Mountains, Belfast Lough and for the lighthouse lover Donaghadee, Mew Island, Blackhead and Maidens Lighthouses. Scotland views include Corsewall Lighthouse which can be seen from the kitchen and ensuite windows. There are far reaching views towards Mull of Kintyre and the South Ayrshire Coast, Ailsa Craig and Pladda with their lighthouses and the Island of Arran. Turnberry is visible on a clear day, the island of Bute and often beyond!
