3 Broomlands House, Ednam Road, Kelso

Broomlands House is a striking former mansion which sits towards the edge of Kelso; surrounded by its own private and beautifully kept grounds, pleasant outlooks and a wonderful lifestyle balance between town and countryside. The listed building dates from the late 1700’s and has been divided to provide six stylish traditional villas. The elegance of the building and setting is certainly a theme continued throughout the first floor apartment, with its traditionally high ceilings, decorative cornicing and sash and case windows complete with working shutters, blending seamlessly with contemporary finishes.

The first floor apartment is bright and welcoming throughout, with the current owners having undergone considerable upgrades including the new kitchen, radiators and décor throughout. The living room sits overlooking the rear lawns and is a wonderful entertaining or family space. With an original retained hardwood flooring, the former ballroom is luxurious in its proportions and makes an enviable reception room with a fantastic triple aspect and plenty of space for lounge furnishings. The breakfasting kitchen sits across the hallway and is finished in classic muted tones with a streamline finish, integrated appliances and a lovely woodland edge outlooks over the neighbouring sheltering trees. Three comfortable double bedrooms are bright and well presented, serviced by the family shower room and separate cloakroom W/C across the hall.

Externally, the grounds are a wonderful complement to the property and ideal for those who wish to enjoy outdoor space without the upkeep. Largely laid to lawn with mature trees and hedging borders, the grounds are kept well-manicured by a gardener. The apartment owns a single garage and there is plenty of private residents parking.
