3 Whitsomehill Farm Cottage, Duns, Scottish Borders, TD11 3NF

PROPERTY DESCRIPTION

3 Whitsomehill is a charming and characterful two-bedroom farm cottage, peacefully positioned within a short distance from the village of Whitsome. Surrounded by open countryside and mature hedging, this delightful property offers the perfect balance of rural tranquillity and convenient access to nearby amenities, making it ideal for those seeking a quieter lifestyle without feeling remote.

The cottage offers generous and well laid out accommodation arranged over two principal floors. On the ground floor, you are welcomed into a spacious sitting room featuring a traditional multi-fuel stove that provides a cosy focal point and a warm atmosphere throughout the colder months. The adjoining galley style kitchen is both practical and has views over the garden and beyond that bring the outdoors in. A separate dining room adds further versatility, perfect for entertaining guests or adapting into a home office or additional snug, depending on individual needs. The main bathroom is also located on the ground floor and features a bath with power shower, WC and wash hand basin.

Upstairs, the first floor hosts two bedrooms. The principal double bedroom is bright and spacious, enhanced by a feature fireplace that adds charm and character to the space. The second bedroom also benefits from a delightful original fireplace and would make an ideal guest room, nursery or study.

While the property would benefit from a small degree of modernisation, it presents a wonderful opportunity for an incoming buyer; be it a first-time purchaser, a downsizer, or someone looking for a peaceful weekend retreat to create a truly special home in the heart of the Scottish Borders. The inherent charm of the cottage, coupled with its flexible layout, provides plenty of scope for personalisation and enhancement.

Externally, the cottage enjoys a beautiful private rear garden, complete with mature planting, a well-kept lawn, and vegetable beds that will appeal to keen gardeners or those wishing to grow their own produce. Halfway down the garden there is a summer house and to the rear of the garden is a shed that currently is being used for storage and offers an addition place to sit out and enjoy the scenic views.

3 Whitsomehill represents a rare opportunity to acquire a picturesque and well-proportioned rural home in a desirable Borders location, offering scope, charm and the promise of an idyllic country lifestyle.
