Beeswing Cottage is a substantial C‑listed Victorian stone home set on a generous plot in elevated Lanton, offering far-reaching countryside views towards the Eildon Hills. The house delivers traditional character — sash and case windows, shutters, chimneys — alongside practical space: four double bedrooms, two large reception rooms, a fitted country kitchen, sunroom and a large studio/annexe with separate access suitable as a home office or self-contained flat.
The property will appeal to buyers seeking period character and rural privacy with modern connectivity: excellent mobile signal and fast broadband. Enclosed sunny front and rear gardens, off‑street parking and useful outbuildings add everyday convenience. The location is rural but accessible; Jedburgh is about 2 miles away, with good road links via the A68 to larger centres.
Buyers should be aware of material constraints. The C‑listing will restrict alterations and may complicate maintenance or upgrades. The energy rating is EPC F and the council tax band is above average — both factors likely to increase running costs. The local area is classified as a remoter, very deprived community, which may affect local services and resale considerations.
This home suits someone who values period charm, space and rural outlook, and who is comfortable managing a listed property’s conservation obligations. The annexe offers flexible income or multi‑generational living potential for those who want extra versatility without large conversion work.
