2 bed cottage for sale in Reston
Forming part of a particularly attractive terrace of cottages, 3 Braeheads is a charming stone built property located towards the edge of this popular Berwickshire village. The cottage has been sympathetically upgraded by the current owners with great care and attention to retain plenty of the original charm, whilst combining this with some very tasteful modern fixtures and fittings. Reston itself lies just off the A1 and has its own train station on the main East Coast rail-line making this location an excellent choice for those who need easy travel links to Edinburgh or further South. The cottage would make an excellent main home for a couple or small family but also has obvious appeal as a second home or commercial holiday. There is easy access to Berwickshire's east coast with popular destinations such as Eyemouth, Coldingham and St Abbs all a short drive away; a great opportunity for those seeking a home close to the coast or those in search of a peaceful weekend retreat

Accommodation
The entrance door of the property opens into the charming and surprisingly spacious lounge which is full of character and personality. The room features exposed ceiling beams and a recently installed multi fuel stove to one wall whilst the window to the front of the cottage allows plenty of natural light to flow. The hallway off features the staircase to the upper floor and gives access to the kitchen towards the rear with a view over the rear garden and surrounding countryside. Having been recently upgraded, the kitchen is now sleek and modern with a tasteful range of light grey units with quartz style worktops plus an integrated hob and eye level oven and complimentary tiled floor which continues into the shower room. A useful shelved recess makes good use of space to provide additional storage or display area and a rear door from the kitchen connects directly to the garden. Lying off the kitchen is the contemporary shower room with large walk in shower cubicle with smart tiled surround, WC and corner wash hand basin with storage below- again this room has very recently been re-fitted. One of the two bedrooms lies on ground floor level; a very pleasant single room with an aspect to the front of the cottage whilst the main bedroom occupies the entire first floor of the cottage. A restful double room with dual aspect velux windows with a countryside view from the rear and well considered built in storage.
