Summary - FISHERMANS COTTAGE, BOLESIDE, GALASHIELS TD1 3NU
3 bed 1 bath Detached
Newly renovated three-bedroom cottage with large garden and garage near Galashiels.
Riverside south-facing position overlooking the River Tweed
Set on a peaceful section of the River Tweed, Fishermans Cottage is a newly renovated three-bedroom detached home offering a rare riverside position and south-facing garden. The owners have refreshed decoration and carpets throughout and fitted a new family bathroom, so the house is move-in ready for a buyer seeking countryside living with strong digital connectivity and easy rail access to Edinburgh.
The ground floor has a sitting room with fireplace, dining room and kitchen; upstairs provides three bedrooms and the new bathroom. Outside, a wraparound garden, driveway parking and a large garage/workshop/outbuilding deliver practical space for vehicles, hobbies or storage. Permitted fishing on the Tweed and extensive local walking add immediate lifestyle benefits.
Practical points to note: the Energy Performance Certificate is rated E and council tax is Band D, reflecting older fabric despite internal refurbishment. The property has only one bathroom, which may be limiting for larger families. The wider area is described as very deprived, though the village sits close to Galashiels and local services, and the site itself faces no flood risk.
This home suits buyers seeking a characterful riverside base with renovated interiors and substantial outdoor space — ideal for families or buyers wanting a countryside retreat within commuting distance of Edinburgh. The freehold tenure and off-street parking add further appeal for long-term ownership or holiday use.
