Welcome To Quairlinnet, Innerleithen IntroductionEnjoying a truly idyllic woodland setting within the historic Caerlee Estate, just a short distance from Innerleithen’s town centre, this charming three-bedroom detached house offers a wonderful blend of tranquillity and convenience. Positioned on a very quiet, private road, the property was built as the gardener’s cottage, lending it a unique sense of heritage and character. Bright and spacious interiors enjoy leafy views from every room, whilst a beautiful south-facing walled garden and private parking for up to five cars add further appeal. Take A Look Around A covered external porch, ideal as a sunny seating spot, leads into a bright entrance hall with solid wood flooring. From here, access is provided to the south-facing living and dining room, a generous dual-aspect space filled with natural light and centred around a feature fireplace flanked by fitted shelving and storage. Neutral décor and warm wood-toned flooring create an inviting, move-in-ready backdrop. Connected to the reception room is a bright breakfasting kitchen with direct garden access. Full of character, it features a vibrant colour palette, bold red cabinetry, open shelving, timber-style herringbone flooring, ample workspace, and room for casual dining. Included appliances comprise a freestanding electric cooker, washing machine, tumble dryer, and tall fridge freezer, whilst an open pantry area provides additional storage. The space also offers excellent scope for future modernisation. The accommodation includes three double bedrooms, all benefiting from useful storage, neutral décor, and solid wood flooring. The dual-aspect principal bedroom opens onto a private south-facing deck leading onto the garden, creating a peaceful retreat for morning coffee or evening relaxation. A ground-floor bedroom offers flexibility for guests, a snug, or home office. Completing the accommodation are a bright shower room, a separate WC, an upstairs landing with space for an office, and a floored attic providing valuable additional storage.

To the front, a half-acre of woodland with mature trees and rhododendrons extends beyond the beech hedge, offering views of the River Tweed and attracting an abundance of wildlife. To the rear, a raised garden area sits beside the traditional stone-built outbuilding, while a further secluded section of south-facing garden is enclosed by mature trees and a high stone wall.
