Summary - GREENGATES, SELKIRK, ETTRICKBRIDGE TD7 5JL
4 bed 2 bath Detached
Renovated family house with extensive riverside gardens and garage.
Four double bedrooms with flexible multi-room ground-floor layout
Greengates is a roomy, newly renovated Victorian detached home set in the heart of Ettrickbridge, offering a rare combination of period charm and contemporary comfort. The house has been upgraded throughout while retaining character features such as a working AGA, exposed beams, sash windows and decorative panelling. The adaptable ground-floor plan includes two bedrooms and flexible living space that could serve as annexe-style accommodation or home working areas.
Outside, the property excels for family life and outdoor pursuits: generous, mature gardens are landscaped in sections with a large patio, lawn, wildlife pond and a secret path to the Ettrick Water. A double garage and parking area sit beyond a gravel drive; the riverside garden setting is a major lifestyle draw for countryside buyers.
Practical considerations are straightforward. The property is freehold with good mobile signal and average broadband speeds; it has been fully renovated but sits in a remote village location providing peaceful living rather than urban convenience. Council Tax is high (Band F) and the surrounding area is classified as very deprived, which may affect local services and resale demand compared with busier market towns.
This home will suit families or buyers seeking a spacious country base with character and ready-to-live-in standards. It also offers scope for continued adaptation (additional bedrooms, home office or formal annexe) while delivering immediate outdoor and lifestyle benefits from its riverside plot and secure gardens.
