The property

Enjoying an enviable position within the village with direct outlooks over the village green, this traditional C listed sandstone property offers deceptively spacious family accommodation with a cleverly designed extension to the rear which works perfectly as an incorporation of the main house but could also provide scope as a granny annex or if catering for extended family. The interior offers a lovely blend of traditional features which marry perfectly with some of the more modern fixtures and fittings and having been presented beautifully throughout, the property is in true move in condition. Ideal for those looking to purchase a family home in a village setting with plenty of space both inside and out with the benefit of a large south facing very private garden to the rear.

  • Location

    Swinton is a popular village with a traditional Village Green and local amenities include Primary School, playpark, garage, builders, hotel restaurant and church. The area is an ideal country location with opportunities for fishing on the Tweed, golf at Duns and the Hirsel, horse riding and walking in the Cheviot and Lammermuir hills. The village is centrally situated with the nearby towns of Duns, Coldstream, Kelso and the Coast and main line rail station at Berwick all within a 12-mile radius. Edinburgh and Newcastle are within easy reach by car.

With outlooks over the village green the lounge is a lovely traditional room of good proportions which is beautifully presented and benefits from a focal point provided by the log burning stove which is set into an Inglenook Fireplace.

The kitchen itself is fitted with a good range of modern wall and base units and provides ample space for everyday dining. The rear hall provides access to the courtyard and has a door off into the adjoining very useful utility area which is plumbed and has space for a washing machine and tumble dryer and also houses the central heating boiler. Within the extension towards the rear, the family room or dining room if preferred, is an impressive space with vaulted style ceiling and floods of natural light thanks to the French doors to the rear which open out onto the south facing garden beyond.
