Like this property? Maybe you'll like these ones close by too.
The outlook towards the Cheviot Hills is one of the most notable features of the property, and can be enjoyed from several points around the garden, including the terrace and the conservatory. The view is long reaching and contributes significantly to the setting.
To the rear of the house, an enclosed courtyard provides a practical and sheltered area with raised beds, gravel surfacing and a range of useful outbuildings. This is a completely private space and a wonderful sun trap. A separate Nissan hut near the parking area offers further storage or workshop potential.
The overall setting is quiet and rural, well suited to those who value outdoor space with a combination of formal and informal areas along with attractive open views.
Lairdshill enjoys an elevated south facing position in rolling Borders countryside, around four miles north west of Kelso. The area has deep agricultural roots and a strong rural community, with Kelso providing a delightful market town centre known for its cobbled square, independent shops, cafés and restaurants. Floors Castle lies close by, and the town hosts the Border Union Show, the renowned Tup Sales and the annual Common Riding.
Schooling is excellent, with good primary and secondary provision in Kelso and respected independent options in Melrose and Berwick upon Tweed. Edinburgh is about forty two miles to the north west with an international airport and mainline rail links, while Berwick provides fast east coast mainline services to London. Newcastle airport is also within easy reach.
