Privacy in a woodland hideaway

The setting is secluded, in 22 acres of woodland and fields at the end of a private driveway.

Yet a country house called Northburn at Tundergarth, Dumfriesshire, is only four miles from Lockerbie and the M74.

Now that Northburn House is on the market - through agents Savills at offers over £575,000 - this beneficial location is likely to see it attracting buyer interest from a wide area.

The layout features two reception rooms, a farmhouse-style kitchen, utility, cloakroom, and four bedrooms. An outbuilding houses a sauna.

The Perceiving Burn runs through the garden - and beside the burn is a sunken garden.

There is also a disused steading carrying consent for conversion to a fourbedroom house.
