Offers Over £285,000
This beautifully renovated stone built period cottage sits in the heart of the popular village of St Boswells; hosting a contemporary and elegant décor with quality finishes and well considered upgrades, a charming and easily maintained enclosed garden is set to the rear complete with cedar clad summerhouse. An ideal home for a family or indeed those in search of a change in lifestyle, Denovan is the perfect find within the Central Borders, benefitting an excellent range of nearby amenities as well as beautiful countryside on the doorstep.
With a handsome frontage, the main door opens to a vestibule with traditional style tiling and coat hanging, with the hallway extending to the ground floor public rooms. A comfortable snug with wood burning stove and original striped flooring is a relaxed space, and would lend equally well as a dining room, with handmade café style wooden shutters fitted on the windows across the ground floor. The adjoining dining kitchen is fitted with a range of elegant wall and base units, with reclaimed oak worktop, Belfast sink, integrated appliances and a large pantry cupboard housing the laundry facilities. A glazed external door opens directly to the rear garden. To the far side of the hall, a charming lounge with open fire provides a wonderful entertaining space, with original flooring and press cupboard storage. A cloakroom w/c facility opens from the hallway.
A turned stair with carpet runner leads to a spacious landing, with an excellent selection of in-built storage. Three comfortable double bedrooms are finished in neutral tones throughout, with the family bathroom set between.
Externally, a fully enclosed garden is easily kept and extremely low maintenance, and has been landscaped to create a child and pet friendly space. A large terraced deck is ideal for BBQ-ing and as a seating and entertaining area, with planted borders, lawn, iron railing, a raised bed and cedar clad summerhouse.
St Boswells is increasingly one of the most desirable villages in the Borders – and it’s little wonder. With a charming village green at its centre, and an excellent range independent shops and specialists, including the Main Street Trading Company – an award winning bookshop, café and deli, the village also boasts an excellent butchers, a hotel with bar and restaurant, and a popular Italian bistro. The local primary school has an excellent reputation, with an adjoining nursery and an out-of-school club also within the village, and falls within the catchment for Earlston High School, with school bus service available.
Being centrally positioned within the Borders, the A68 links the village to both north and south, with Edinburgh & Newcastle accessible in under an hour, and with the local railway station for the border line available at Tweedbank, opening up access to the city for both work and leisure. Access to further towns, such as Kelso and Galashiels are just a short 10-15 minute drive.
In addition to a host of amenities and excellent transport links, the picturesque village is quite literally surrounded by beautiful countryside; bordered by the River Tweed and Eildon Hills, St Boswells provides ably for those in search of countryside living and pursuits, with a local golf course, tennis club, cricket field and with ample opportunities for walks within the countryside such as St Cuthbert’s Way and the Eildon Hills.
