The property
Located in the heart of Eyemouth and only a stone's throw away from the town centre amenities and attractions Ellerslea is a really deceptive townhouse. With accommodation extending over three floors and a kitchen extension to the rear, the property offers great scope as a traditional family home. Ellerslea has clearly been lovingly looked after and maintained to a good standard but does now offer scope for some basic upgrading- an excellent opportunity for a purchaser to complete these upgrades in their own time and to their own specification. Usefully the property benefits from a sun trap, low maintenance rear garden plus a garage which is accessed via the lane to the rear.
