Accommodation
Flanked by a beautiful climbing rose and herbaceous planting, the front entrance is attractive, inviting you into a bright hallway that doglegs from the front to the back. The carpeted staircase rises up to the two upper floors above while the back door opens to the modest yet sumptuous courtyard. The newly fitted laminate flooring extends from the hallway into the kitchen and dining area. The kitchen has a luxurious feel, wrapping around the space with dark blue doors, tiled splashbacks, white countertops, sleek electric hob and white ceramic sink with chrome mixer tap. A spacious dining area sits to the front of the room, with window seat together with the space to include sofa seating to relax and unwind, while the modern combi boiler is tucked away in the press cupboard. The stairwell is bright and flowing, with storage cupboards on the ground and top floors, together with windows on the half landings which floods the space with natural light. The first-floor master bedroom has two windows, with storage below, that look out to the church square and has a traditional feel with picture rail, cornicing and press cupboard. Also on this floor is the contemporary bathroom with a white stylish suite, rainfall shower head over the ‘L’ shaped bath, pastel blue vanity sink unit with floating blue storage cupboard beside, tall heated towel rail and textured tiled surrounds. The top floor hosts the lounge, with a similar layout as the master bedroom below, with the windows giving a temping, elevated glimpse of the Rennie Bridge and River Tweed. The fitted fireplace has an electric stove, black granite hearth, tiled back and oak wood surround, while the under-window cupboards and traditional press provide useful storage. The second double bedroom has a window looking out to the rear courtyard light well, whilst a good sized airing cupboard in the hallway provides additional storage options. The loft space is accessed via an extending ladder on the second floor landing and is mostly floored.
