Marlake is nestled within an idyllic rural location about 2 miles from the town of Lochmaben. The busy market town of Lockerbie is some 4.5 miles distant and has
direct access to the M74 arterial route.
The dwellinghouse is of traditional construction set over a single floor providing three-bedroom accommodation. The property would benefit from a degree of cosmetic upgrading, however, provides a superb blank canvas for any potential buyers and may have some potential for further development.
A feature of the property are the two grazing paddocks amounting to just over 2 acres which are transversed by the Marlake Burn. The inclusion of the land
makes this a perfect smallholding for smallscale agricultural or equestrian uses. A detached garage sits to the front of the property.
A range of local services can be found at nearby Lochmaben with Lockerbie providing a wider range of essential services to include leisure facilities, a modern health centre, a wide range of professional services as well as two national supermarkets. Both primary and secondary schooling are highly rated and available within the town.
Marlake benefits from excellent commuting links with both Glasgow and Edinburgh a little over an hour’s drive north and with the M74 adjoining the M6 at
Gretna, the property is within commuting distance of some of the major centres. There is a main line railway station at Lockerbie, which runs a full timetable of services both north and south. The regional centre of Dumfries offers the further education choices with the University of the West of Scotland (uws) along with a relatively new hospital, a range of high street shops, retail parks and large supermarkets.
