Spacious 3-bed bungalow with large gardens and renovation potential in peaceful countryside..
Detached single-storey stone cottage with period character
Set within a quiet farm estate, this detached single-storey stone cottage offers roomy accommodation and substantial outdoor space for countryside family life. The layout includes a large sitting room, galley kitchen with shaker-style units, three double bedrooms and a sizeable family bathroom. Mature walled gardens, an expansive rear lawn and useful outbuildings add practical value and scope for outdoor projects.
The property requires modernisation throughout, presenting excellent potential to personalise finishes, reconfigure rooms (subject to consents) or add value through sympathetic upgrading. Services include mains electricity, private water from the farm and drainage to a shared septic tank; buyers should allow for ongoing maintenance of private systems. Broadband speeds are reported fast, but mobile signal is average.
Practical positives include off-street parking with room to expand, no identified flood risk, and relatively low council tax. The home sits in a peaceful, rural location with open views and easy driving access to Coldstream, Berwick-upon-Tweed and the A1 for longer commutes. Note the immediate area is classified as very deprived and the location is rural/remoter, which may affect local services and resale market dynamics.
This bungalow will suit families wanting a countryside base with room to improve, or buyers seeking renovation potential on a manageable single-floor property. Be prepared for refurbishment work, attention to private water and septic arrangements, and the realities of living in a remote rural community.
