Property Description
Undoubtedly, one of the prettiest cottages in the picturesque village of Allanton. This two bedroom cottage oozes charm and sits under a fish-scale decorative slate roof which is rather distinguishable with the village and the former Blackadder Estate, dressed stone walls and stone façade dormer windows. The property has been extended to the rear to include a rear porch and a spacious kitchen / diner to enhance the living space as these original 19th century cottages lacked sizable kitchens. The property also benefits from oil-fired central heating, wood-burning stove in lounge, bathroom with separate shower cubicle and double glazing. Formerly, a three bedroom property made into 2 spacious bedrooms but the partition could be re-instated between in the second bedroom (subject to relevant permissions). This appealing stone cottage would make an ideal holiday let / home or even a family home and viewing is highly recommended.
Location
The property is set in the peaceful conservation village of Allanton which originally formed part of the Blackadder Estate, with Blackadder House sadly being demolished in 1925. In the 20th Century the village was notable for its Tailor’s shops, having three for such a small village, the last of which closed in the 1960’s. The property sits on the wide street opposite the original gate lodges to Blackadder House. This pretty village is made up with a mixture of quaint cottages and detached bungalows and houses and benefits from a thriving pub which has an outstanding reputation for hospitality and its food. The village sits approx. 6 miles from Duns which offers a wide range of amenities and approx. 11 miles from the A1 and Berwick upon Tweed which offers further amenities and excellent transport links North and South.
