Property Description

Brundenlaws is a charming and rarely available Victorian home occupying a wonderfully private plot in the sought after conservation village of Bowden. Located in the heart of the village the property boasts outstanding South-facing views of the Scottish Borders stretching to East to the Cheviot Hills and Ruberslaw to the West.

Set over two principal floors this outstanding home has been owned by the same family for over 50 years. Whilst requiring a degree of modernisation the house is rich in period details with deep bay windows, ornate cornices and ceilings, generous ceilings and large sash windows.

The ground floor comprises a generous sitting-room with conservatory, dining room, study, kitchen, utility and stairs lead to a first-floor bedroom which could be used as a nursey/playroom or further home office. The first floor boasts four generous double bedrooms – one benefiting from an en-suite bathroom, the other bedrooms share a large family bathroom.

Externally the property sits within wonderfully private mature gardens, to the rear of the house is a flag-stoned patio – ideal for enjoying the sun – and a wonderful, tiered garden stocked with herbaceous shrubs. The front garden is laid to lawn and cobblestones. The property has the added advantage of off-street parking, and a large outbuilding offers capacious storage and two large garages.

Bowden is ideally placed offering residents a variety of walking routes on the doorstep with the Bowden Common leading to the three peaks of the Eildon Hills. There are several walking routes in Maxpoffle Woods and St Cuthbert's Way can be easily followed from nearby. There is an active village hall and easy access to local schooling in Melrose, Newtown St. Boswells and Earlston High School for Secondary pupils.
