The property

Located just a stone's throw away from Kelso, this picture postcard stone cottage has recently been renovated and modernised throughout; finished in tasteful style with a neutral palate which compliments the cottage charm perfectly whilst also combining many modern comforts. The views are spectacular, particularly from the dining kitchen which looks towards Floors Castle in the distance. Due to the exacting standard of the renovations, combined with the convenient location and the pretty stone exterior, this cottage would lend itself perfectly as a upmarket holiday/2nd home or simply for those seeking a quality family home in a more peaceful, out of town environment whilst still remaining close to every day conveniences.
