In the last two years, it has been sympathetically and wholly renovated from top to bottom to become an outstanding family home, designed to provide the very best in contemporary living. It boasts a wealth of high-end accommodation, including an impressive open-plan reception area, as well as a new kitchen and four new washrooms (all recently installed within the last two years). It also benefits from a south-facing garden and generous private parking. Furthermore, this executive residence offers a sought-after rural lifestyle, forming part of a small enclave of properties which enjoy a secluded location amongst the majestic hills and countryside of the picturesque Scottish Borders, complete with spectacular country views. There is no further developments planned in this area. Conveniently, whilst the home provides a true rural idyll, it also remains within easy reach of Peebles and in commuting distance of Edinburgh.

Reception rooms - Open-plan living at its finest The open-plan kitchen, living and dining room has a substantial footprint that is bathed in natural light all day long from a wealth of dual-aspect glazing to the north and south. It can accommodate a wide choice of comfortable furnishings and a large table and chairs, creating the ideal setup for all occasions. The space is further enhanced by minimalist-inspired styling, with crisp white walls and a rich wood-inspire floor (setting the theme of decor found predominantly throughout). Adding to the room's high appeal, there is also a wood-burning stove for those cosy winter evenings and French doors that extend the space into the rear garden for a seamless transition to outside - perfect for families and summer social events. In addition, there is an alternate exit to the side of the property. Kitchen - A stylish kitchen with a central island The kitchen has a high-quality design that is forever fashionable, sporting a monochrome-colour palette that enriches the entire aesthetic of the living area. Arranged in an L-shape around a central island, it is also neatly zoned to enhance the expansive open-plan layout and to retain its own identity. Furthermore, it has a generous range of modern cabinets (in white) and solid black granite worktops, which are brightly illuminated by undercabinet lighting. The sophisticated look is completed by a selection of high-end integrated appliances (twin Siemens oven and Wi-Fi combi microwave oven, Siemens five-ring induction hob, statement extractor, and Hoover dishwasher). Space is provided for a tall freestanding fridge/freezer and a discreetly located utility room also supplements the kitchen, providing additional counterspace and a washbasin.
