Tweed Brae Cottage
Tweed Brae Cottage has recently undergone an extensive programme of renovation and refurbishment, resulting in a beautifully finished detached home that seamlessly blends period character with contemporary design. Set across a single level, the property is deceptively spacious, offering generous internal proportions, well-balanced accommodation and two substantial double bedrooms, each served by high-quality bathroom facilities. The layout is both practical and sociable, perfectly suited to modern living. Situated within the historic village of Wark, positioned attractively on the banks of the River Tweed, the cottage enjoys a peaceful and well-established setting. Despite its tranquil surroundings, the property remains well connected to neighbouring towns and villages, with the East Coast rail link at Berwick located within fifteen miles, providing excellent onward travel. Tweed Brae Cottage is likely to appeal to a broad range of purchasers — whether as a superb main residence, an idyllic weekend retreat, or potentially a high-quality holiday let investment. Presented in true turnkey condition, it offers an immediate premium home, while a substantial fully floored attic space, spanning the full length of the cottage, provides exciting potential for future extension (subject to necessary consents). To the rear of the home, the impressive dining kitchen forms the natural heart of the property. Beautifully appointed with a premium fitted kitchen, this generous space comfortably accommodates both formal dining and relaxed seating. Two sets of double doors create a seamless connection to the private gardens beyond, making it ideal for entertaining and indoor-outdoor living. In contrast, the neighbouring lounge provides a cosy and characterful retreat, complete with exposed ceiling beams and an open fireplace — the perfect space to unwind in the evening. The accommodation continues along the hallway with two bright and spacious double bedrooms. The principal bedroom enjoys an attractive village outlook to the front, excellent built-in storage and a stylish en-suite shower room featuring a large walk-in enclosure with contemporary wet wall panelling. Bedroom two overlooks the rear garden and is positioned adjacent to the beautifully appointed main bathroom, thoughtfully designed to include both a bath and a separate walk-in shower. A sunny, sheltered and highly private garden extends to the rear of the cottage; the doors from the dining kitchen opening to a lovely dining terrace which catches the sun for much of the day. From here pathways meander their way through the terraced sections of garden which are alive with colour throughout the spring and summer months. A further paved seating area lies within the top section. To the side, a private driveway provides valuable parking, with a wealth of additional parking in the car park opposite including electric car charging points. -
