Property Description
4 The Row is a delightful and particularly unique property set within a terrace of 18th century stone cottages in the charming village of Longformacus just a few miles from Duns in the Berwickshire Scottish Borders. The property is arranged over three floors, the ground floor being a dedicated garage and storage space, with the habitable areas located above and a beautiful garden to the rear. The property is entered at street level via a shared passageway which leads to the front door at the back of the property and to a good-sized multi-level landscaped garden. The first floor has an elegantly arranged dual aspect kitchen reception area, along with master bedroom and stunning en-suite bathroom. The second floor hosts another stunning dual aspect living space and further double bedroom plus separate modern bathroom. The entire property has been renovated to a high standard with materials and décor that perfectly reflect the character of both the property and the village. The accommodation would make an exceptionally peaceful weekend escape as well as a delightful permanent home for those looking to escape the chaos of city life.
Area Insights
Longformacus is the largest of the Lammermuir villages, set in an area of incredible natural beauty hidden away but perfectly located between the lively cities of Edinburgh and Newcastle upon Tyne. The village has a neighbourly community with the village hall and local church offering a variety of events and social opportunities for inhabitants and visitors. From Longformacus it’s an easy 10km drive Southeast to the town of Duns which offers essential local amenities, an 18 hole golf course, a water sports centre along the Whiteadder, and heritage sights such as Duns Castle and Manderston House. Heading Northwest over the hills is the slightly larger town of Haddington which offers an array of independent retailers, bars and restaurants and more widely recognised retailers.
Longformacus is a quiet and peaceful village but offers excellent links to Edinburgh, Newcastle and even London. The A1 is within easy reach, whether driving North to Edinburgh and beyond or South through Berwick upon Tweed, Newcastle and The South. Regular trains from both Edinburgh and Berwick mean London can be just a 3 ½ hour journey away.
The nearby A697 provides easy commutable access to Scotland’s capital city, Newcastle and also Berwick upon Tweed which is only a 20 minute drive away. Longformacus is situated in the north of Berwickshire, and to the south of Midlothian offering great access to many other enchanting towns, villages and National parks throughout the Scottish Borders, East Lothian and Northumbria.
