Location
Kelso, which lies at the meeting point of the Tweed and Teviot rivers, is one of the most attractive and unspoiled towns in the Borders. Notable features are the 12th Century Abbey, the Flemish style cobbled square, Floors Castle and the old bridge across the Tweed. The town has good educational and sporting facilities and many quality shops. The area has much to offer those interested in country pursuits with fishing on the Tweed and is an increasingly sought after location within the Borders.

An unusual Gothic style red painted panelled timber front door opens into a light and airy hallway with carpeted staircase extending to the upper floor and with useful understair cupboard which benefits from central heating and houses the utility meters.

Extending towards the rear of the cottage is the dining area which in turn opens into the modern kitchen which is fitted with an excellent range of gloss fronted wall and base units with ample wood effect worktops and tiled splashbacks. Appliances include an integral oven with gas hob and extractor hood above, dishwasher and circular stainless steel sink with drainer to the side. Two Velux windows ensure good natural light whilst a part glazed door to the rear allows access to the parking area and the garden which lies beyond.
