20 WEMYSS PLACE Situated in the Peebles conservation area, this traditional semi-detached house is a spacious family home with beautiful interiors. It features a large living room and dining kitchen, a four-piece bathroom, and a separate WC. With four bedrooms, the south-facing property also offers a great degree of versatility allowing it to grow and change along with your family needs. Adding to its desirability, it also has mature gardens for enjoying the summer months. A LOOK AROUND Inside, you are welcomed by a traditional vestibule and a bright hall with built-in storage. The living room is on the right. Pairing light blue décor with white detailing and wooden floorboard, it has an elegant look that immediately catches the eye thanks to its period cornice work, picture rail, and feature mantelpiece set beside a display cabinet. A south-facing bay window floods the room in warm sunlight, adding to the airy ambience. In the large dining kitchen, there is plenty of room for a table and chairs alongside a generously appointed range of wood-toned cabinets and sweeping worktops in stone effect. Tasteful splashback tiles complete the attractive design bringing a subtle touch of colour to the aesthetic. A neighbouring utility room supplements the kitchen. Completing the ground-floor is a white-tiled four-piece bathroom (with a bath and shower cubicle). On the first floor, a naturally-lit landing connects to the four bedrooms. Attractively presented and laid with soft carpets, all four rooms are bright and inviting. The principal bedroom has the largest footprint, whilst the second (with storage) and third bedrooms are arranged for children, and the fourth is setup as a study/office, showcasing the flexibility of the home. Conveniently, there is also a two-piece WC on this floor as well. The property has gas central heating and double glazing for year-round comfort. In addition to a low-maintenance front garden, the home also features a generous rear garden which is fully enclosed. Arranged in tiers, the rear garden begins with a paved area leading up to well-kept stretches of lawn framed by mature plants – perfect for relaxing in the sun. Parking in the area is on street and unrestricted. All fitted floor and window coverings, light fittings, a gas range cooker, and a washing machine to be included in the sale. Nestled in the Tweed Valley within the Scottish Borders, the charming Royal Burgh of Peebles is a historic and picturesque town. The town has been recognised as the ‘Top Independent Retailing Town in Scotland’ with a wealth of independent shops as well as a handful of high-street supermarkets, including a Tesco superstore, banks, and a post office.
