Set in the peaceful hamlet of Blyth Bridge, this detached five-bedroom villa offers spacious, flexible family accommodation across two floors. The home benefits from large principal rooms — a south-facing sitting room, an impressive kitchen/dining area and a conservatory that opens to extensive, lawned rear gardens with attractive rural views. The layout suits multigenerational living with two ground-floor double bedrooms and a modern shower room.
Finished to a high standard in many areas, the property features double glazing, oil central heating, an integral garage and driveway parking for two vehicles. The first floor provides three further double bedrooms and a stylish four-piece family bathroom. The house totals about 1,851 sq ft and comes with several fitted appliances and floor coverings included.
Buyers should note some practical drawbacks: broadband speeds are slow in this rural location, council tax is described as expensive, and the property sits in a remoter agricultural community which may not suit those needing frequent urban amenities. Heating is oil-fired, which can be more costly than mains gas and may need ongoing servicing.
This villa will appeal to families seeking generous indoor/outdoor living and countryside tranquillity with straightforward commuter access to West Linton and routes into Edinburgh. There is also scope to personalise or modernise aspects of the interior to match individual tastes, making it both a comfortable home and a property with potential to add value.
