Motefield is situated on a spectacular elevated site within the pretty coastal village of Rockcliffe and within walking distance of Rockcliffe beach (National Scenic Area). This area of Southwest Scotland is extremely sought after for its microclimate, dramatic tides, rugged coast and beautiful countryside.

Motefield affords the opportunity to purchase this stunning architect designed villa, which has been sympathetically planned to make the most of the idyllic peaceful location. The property is set over three levels, which flow seamlessly throughout, with most of the accommodation affording beautiful views. The property is of an extremely high standard with underfloor heating and quality oak finishing’s, the attention to detail throughout the whole property has been sympathetically well thought out. Given the layout and accommodation of Motefield, there may be the opportunity to create a self-contained annex to accommodate extended family living.

The landscaped garden grounds offer a mixture of scent and tapestry throughout the year with winding Indian sandstone steps leading to the main entrance of the property. The garden grounds attract a variety of birds, with red squirrels being daily visitors to the feeding stations put in place by the current owners.
