Abbeyside, 5 Abbey Mill Park, Melrose

In a tucked away cul de sac, just off the main thoroughfare of Melrose, Abbey Mill Park is the perfect spot for families, retirees or holiday makers alike. The property is bright and spacious throughout, and hosts good sized public rooms with a large open living/kitchen/dining area on the ground floor.
A carpeted staircase leads to two double bedrooms on the first floor, a generous master bedroom with ensuite shower and a main family bathroom. Patio doors from the dining area lead out to the fully enclosed decked garden, with a small gate leading out to the fields beyond, perfect for alfresco dining with uninterrupted views of the countryside. There is also the benefit of a single garage adjacent, ideal for parking/external storage.

The ever popular Melrose – voted the best town to live in Scotland in 2018, is a firm favourite for families, retirees and tourists alike. The pull of the quaint and picturesque town lies in its beautifully kept and vibrant high street; packed with independent traders and artisan shops, Melrose retains a traditional market town feel with plenty to do - while still extremely well connected for modern requirement. The area is surrounded by historical landmarks; with Border heavy weights such as Sir Walter Scott’s residence and the St Mary’s Abbey just a short walk, with the backdrop of the Eildon hills on one side, and the River Tweed to the other……it’s quite the idyllic spot!

Melrose

In addition to stunning local scenery, the well-connected town takes advantage of major road and rail links; sitting just off the A68 and A7 with connections to the recently opened Borders Railway at Tweedbank and Galashiels, as well as a local bus service. Edinburgh is s within striking distance and just a swift 40 minute drive for the commuter, with the railway opening up the region for both work and leisure.
Local schooling is available from nursery through to primary, with private schooling at the highly regarded St Mary’s. Melrose is also within the catchment for Earlston High School – a well-considered and popular secondary, achieving excellent academic results with great extracurricular facilities, and even featuring in Tatler magazine!
There is no shortage of sporting opportunities from golf to tennis, football to rugby, and proudly home to the world famous Melrose Sevens.
