An unusual property in the north of the Stewartry has been sold at auction.
An underground water tank at North Liggat, near Carsphairn, has been converted into a space big enough to take a bed, with a roof, skylight and outside decking also added.
The bolt-hole was put up for auction for £19,000 but, after frantic bidding, sold for £23,000.
CEO of auctioneers Online Property Auctions Scotland George Douglas said: “This was an ideal opportunity for those
seeking seclusion and unspoiled views of the surrounding countryside.
“There is also potential for a development opportunity subject to planning, since there is easily enough room to accommodate a family home complete with garage and garden.
“The site comes with a generator for power sockets which have been added.
“I’m not surprised it attracted such a high level of interest.”
