Sale history
£325,000 in May 2020
The property
Located in a small and very established cul de sac, 3 Kingscroft is located towards the outer edge of Kelso yet benefits from being within easy walking distance of the local schools and other amenities. This detached, well-proportioned property presents the perfect opportunity for those seeking a family home in the town which offers accommodation of generous proportions coupled with plenty of garden ground both to the front and to the rear. The current vendors have implemented several upgrades to improve the property such as the creation of a very stylish ground floor shower room, new triple glazing not to mention some reconfiguration of the living accommodation on the ground floor to make the space much more useable and family friendly. The semi open plan layout of the ground floor works particularly well for modern family life with the sizeable lounge to the front leading into the adjoining dining room which in turn opens into the spacious and very sociable dining kitchen at the rear which is connected directly to the gardens via patio doors. In comparison to many other similar sized properties in the town, 3 Kingscroft has the advantage of a large garden; the outside areas extend to the front and rear of the property and benefit from excellent levels of privacy. Having been thoughtfully landscaped and fully enclosed at the rear, the outside space is an ideal environment for children or pets with sun throughout most of the day and plenty of space for family or social gatherings.
