1 bed cottage for sale in Whitsome


Nicely set within the heart of this small Berwickshire village, Cherrytree Cottage is a pretty C Listed end terrace sandstone dwelling. Offering a fully renovated interior that has been thoughtfully planned to provide a modern well equipped home with a number of lovely period features that provide plenty of charm and character; the exposed stone work, ceiling beams and stable door all pay homage to the Victorian era. A stand out feature of the cottage is unquestionably the large cottage garden to the rear; with a sunny southerly aspect the garden is beautifully stocked to ensure lots of colour and interest and the decked seating area has been perfectly placed to maximise the far reaching views to the Cheviots in the distance. The cottage serves as a perfect weekend bolt-hole but would be equally well suited as a main residence within an active and inviting village community.
