Fairholme, Ettrickbridge, Selkirk

The striking black and white fronted property was formerly two cottages dating back to around 1890, and still retains much of the Victorian features, among them, open fireplaces give a welcoming feel to the reception rooms and make for a striking feature in the main bedrooms, as well as stained glass windows and the exposed stone work in the kitchen, creating beautiful focal points.

Perfect as a family home, the external space is equally well presented and generously proportioned; with a large, level and enclosed lawn it is a great space for children to enjoy, with a patio for al fresco days, colourful borders and covered pergola, a generous drive for several cars, garage with electrics and insulation and a well-established vegetable allotment.

Fairholme is a fantastic countryside property to be enjoyed by a family or those looking for a lifestyle change; with free flowing and adaptable accommodation in excellent condition, considerable investments to the maintenance and energy efficiency and an exceptional garden.
