The property
This traditional stone cottage is nestled into the countryside and enjoys a semi-rural lifestyle, boasting superb southerly views over the Cheviots and Hume Castle. Ideally placed in a peaceful spot, the cottage lies approximately seven miles outside of Kelso where a full range of local shops and amenities are available whilst enjoying countryside walks on the doorstep. With three spacious double bedrooms, the accommodation is currently used as a successful holiday cottage but could equally appeal as a second home or for those looking to relocate away from the hustle and bustle. The cottage benefits from a small private garden to the rear, and a seating area to the front; perfect for taking in the amazing views, as well as off-road parking and a single car garage.
