This striking C‑listed former church has been sympathetically, fully renovated to create a dramatic and spacious one‑bedroom home with authentic period features. High ceilings, restored stained glass, bespoke oak-and-glass staircase and a hand-built kitchen reclaimed from pews give the interior strong character and designer appeal. The mezzanine bedroom is bright and could potentially be divided subject to investigation, increasing flexibility for owners or short‑stay guests.
Externally the fully enclosed garden provides practical outdoor space, gated off‑street parking for two cars and an EV charger — valuable in a market increasingly focused on electric vehicles. The property sits a short walk from Selkirk town centre and parkland, with good rail links to Edinburgh from nearby stations, supporting strong holiday‑let or weekend getaway demand.
Important practical notes: the building’s C‑listed status means listed‑building consent will be needed for many alterations and could complicate change of use or future works. Tenure is unknown and council tax sits at Band E, above average. The area is described as very deprived, which may affect long‑term resale dynamics. Despite the historic fabric, the conversion includes modern comforts such as gas central heating, double glazing and fast broadband.
