Lanton Tower Cottage is a handsome Georgian detached home offering generous, versatile accommodation across three floors. The house blends original character—open fireplaces, high ceilings and stone elevations—with a later extension that creates a dramatic vaulted sitting room and mezzanine bedroom. The well-equipped dining kitchen centres on a classic AGA and solid-wood cabinetry, ideal for family cooking and entertaining.
Set in a peaceful village two miles from Jedburgh, the property sits within landscaped front and rear gardens with a stone-flagged patio and off-street parking. Practical modern comforts include fibre broadband, excellent mobile signal and mains services with oil central heating, while the home’s layout suits multi-generational family life, occasional guests or a work-from-home arrangement.
Buyers should note this is a historic home (built 1780) and, despite careful upgrading, may present traditional-property quirks and ongoing maintenance typical of older stone houses. There is useful loft/attic storage with scope to convert into additional accommodation, subject to planning. Council tax is reported above average and the wider area is classified as very deprived, which may influence future resale or rental considerations.
Overall, the cottage offers a rare combination of spacious period living, garden privacy and rural tranquillity within easy reach of Jedburgh’s amenities and main transport routes. It will suit buyers seeking characterful family accommodation who appreciate countryside lifestyle with sound modern connectivity.
