Property Description

Birch Cottage is a delightful three/four-bedroom farm cottage set in a peaceful, private plot a short drive from the bustling towns of Melrose and Galashiels. Having been extended by the current owners the ground floor now offers a bright and spacious open plan sitting room, kitchen, diner with wood burning stove, bifold patio doors directly to the decked patio and a fantastic modern fitted kitchen. There is a double bedroom, single bedroom currently utilised as a home office and a shower/utility room completing the ground floor.

The first floor comprises a spacious and well-designed principal bedroom suite with floor to ceiling glass gable end offering far reaching views over the rolling countryside. Two built in wardrobes provide an abundance of storage for this room. A second naturally lit double bedroom and a large main bathroom complete this level. The bathroom is fitted with a modern rainfall walk in shower, WC and vanity unit.

The cottage benefits from thoughtfully landscaped front and rear gardens. A gravel driveway provides 4-5 off street parking spaces.

The property also falls into the catchment for Melrose Grammar School & Earlston High School, with free bus services for pupils to and from the school.

Situated in a south facing position the rear garden offers an excellent place to relax in the sunshine or dine alfresco on the decked seating area. A well-kept lawn and planted beds add colour and interest year-round, for a garden enthusiast there is a serviced greenhouse and a garden shed.
