Ground-floor two-bedroom flat with large private garden, ideal for first-time buyers or downsizers.
Ground-floor two-bedroom flat with private rear garden
A bright ground-floor two-bedroom flat with a generous private garden, well-suited to first-time buyers or those looking to downsize. The apartment is freehold, double glazed and warmed by gas central heating, with an economical Council Tax Band A. The layout includes an entrance hallway, lounge, kitchen, two bedrooms and a three-piece bathroom.
Set in a popular commuter town, the property sits within a short walk of local shops, a primary school and transport links. The setting offers easy access to Melrose and the A68 for journeys north to Edinburgh or south to Newcastle. The nearby Borders General Hospital and local amenities make this practical for everyday living.
Internally the flat is presented in a generally serviceable condition with modern decor and useful built-in storage. The kitchen provides space for freestanding appliances and houses the gas boiler. The rear garden is a standout feature: largely lawned with mature trees, decking and a shed — big enough for entertaining or family outdoor use.
Buyers should note a few practical limitations: broadband speeds are reported slow, parking is on-street only, and the area has a higher level of deprivation. The property is average sized (approximately 674 sq ft) and may suit those seeking a low-maintenance home rather than a larger family house. Cosmetic updating may be desired to personalise the interior.
