Mulloch is a charming farmhouse surrounded by its own private land which has been recently refurbished. The sitting room and dining rooms provide formal entertaining areas at the front of the house while the kitchen/breakfast room is a cosy family space to the rear.
There are two staircases and on the first floor the master bedroom suite has good views, while bedrooms two and three are spacious - bedroom three can also be used as a further sitting room and is approached by the second staircase.
Outside the outbuildings have lots of potential for development; the former calf shed has already been converted into a small studio with a sitting area overlooking the gardens. The former byre currently provides garaging.

Mulloch is situated half a mile outside New Galloway, a popular local village with a town hall, churches, three pubs and a primary school. Castle Douglas is 15 miles and Dumfries 26 miles.
