Description

Glenhoul Brae is a new build eco home located in an elevated position with spectacular views over the Galloway Forest Park. The area is a UNESCO designated Biosphere and also a Dark Sky Park and the house was designed and built by a photographic duo and used as a base for their photography projects and workshops. With large windows along the frontage it is possible to enjoy the views in all weathers, floor to ceiling glass in the master bedroom and a bath with a view are just two of this houses unique features. It's bike friendly and also an ideal base for any outdoor pursuits, landscape photographers and artists and astro photography,a s well as for simply getting away from it all. Watch red kites, kestrels, partridges and hares from the dining area - many coming right to the doors. Listen out for the call of an owl at night, the evening bat and the heron that visits the pond. Good walks and cycles straight from the door. Ample garden area, and 10 acres of hillside including a pond to explore.
