There is underfloor heating throughout, supplied from an air source heat pump. The windows are double glazed and there is plenty of storage, including useful loft storage in the house and garage.

Externally, there are good sized but easily kept gardens to front, side and rear, laid predominantly to grass with a beautiful mature tree to the front and a variety of young trees to the rear, which is slightly sloped and partly screened by hedges and fencing. A patio, conveniently accessed from the dining end of the kitchen, creates a perfect spot for al fresco dining. An adjoining garage, with electric up and over door, provides secure parking, fronted by a monoblocked driveway large enough for two cars very comfortably.

Only three miles away, the historic Borders town of Jedburgh is home to “Mary Queen of Scots' House" and the 12th century Jedburgh Abbey, both of which are situated in the heart of this picturesque town, which has a wide range of shops and restaurants up and down the High Street. There are a variety of outdoor pursuits in the area including fishing on the rivers Tweed and Teviot, and National Hunt racing in nearby Kelso, which also offers an ice rink as well as a superb range of quality independent shops, cafes and restaurants. There is a driving range behind the house, perfect for the keen golfer, with a number of excellent courses available including the Roxburghe championship course in Heiton. Local tourist destinations include Jedburgh Castle Jail, Ferniehurst Castle, Monteviot Gardens and the Harestanes Visitor Centre. The new Intergenerational school campus, opened in 2020, is gathering a great reputation, with private schooling available in Melrose at the renowned St Mary’s Preparatory School; a bus pick up service to both is at hand. Many Border towns are within easy driving distance, with the A68 giving easy access to all major routes north and south bound. Regular scheduled flights are from Edinburgh and Newcastle to a number of UK and European destinations.
