Sale history
£227,500 in June 2019
The property
Inch Cottage is a traditional stone built detached bungalow which enjoys a convenient position within the village. Bungalows of this nature rarely become available and whilst the property would now benefit from some upgrading and modernisation, there is plenty of scope and potential for the purchaser to add their own stamp and vision. The interior is nicely proportioned and there is also plenty of space on offer externally; the gardens which extend to the rear are sizeable and due to the south facing position they enjoy fabulous open outlooks over the valley towards The Cheviots in the distance. There is vehicular access to the rear providing off street parking with a detached garage/workshop to the foot of the garden.

Location
Local shopping, primary and nursery schooling is available at Chirnside with the main shops and the east coast rail connection some 12 miles away at Berwick upon Tweed. The county town of Duns is five miles west with its recently built state of the art secondary school while Edinburgh is approx 50 miles and one hour by car via the A1. The area is famous for country pursuits with fishing on the nearby Whiteadder Water and the famous River Tweed and provides ideal walking and horse country in the Cheviot and Lammermuir hills.
