A unique opportunity to acquire a large garage with potential for conversion to residential use (subject to the relevant consents).
Situation
Castle Douglas is a market town located in Dumfries and Galloway. The town is situated approximately 15 miles Southwest of Dumfries and is known for being a food town along with its bustling high street, and scenic surroundings. The town benefits from a range of local amenities such as local, independent shops, a post office along with a primary school and secondary school. Nearby towns include Kircudbright, approx. 10 miles southwest, and Dumfries, approx. 18 miles to the northeast. Glasgow lies approx. 94 miles to the north, while Carlisle is approximately 55 miles to the east. Although Castle Douglas is in a rural setting, it remains well-connected by road, with the A75 providing convenient access to larger towns and cities.
Directions
From the centre of Dumfries, head southwest on A75. Continue on the A75 for approximately 18 miles, then turn left onto A745 for Castle Douglas and travel for about 0.5 miles. Oxly House will be on the left.
Oxly Garage
Planning permission has recently been granted for a new access to be created directly from the A745 opposite the garage providing an opportunity for the garage to be sold separately from the house and have it’s own access.
Oxly garage has 3 bays with double doors and a pedestrian door at the eastern end. The building has a concrete base and benefits from mains water and electricity supplies and drainage to a private septic tank. Upstairs is floored and benefits from large skylights offering plenty of natural light. The garage also benefits from a separate WC and sink. The garage represents a great opportunity for a private garage to compliment Oxly House or for conversion as a separate dwelling subject to the necessary planning consents.
Planning
Planning permission was granted in March 2025 for the formation of vehicular access onto A745 under reference 25/0565/FUL. Prospective purchasers should make their own investigations into the planning consents and all relevant information including looking at the local authority planning portal. It is recommended that those interested seek appropriate professional advice.
