Detached house for sale in Kelso TD5, 3 Bedroom

The Schoolhouse is an interesting and unique property, steeped in history. Formerly both the village school and schoolmasters house, dating back to the late 1700's and added to in the mid 1800's, the property sits upon beautiful substantial mature gardens which enjoy great privacy and include an outbuilding, which offers scope for a number of uses such as a workshop/studio and such like and is tucked away to the rear of the garden. There is also another stone outbuilding, originally in part a small stable, as well as a little bothy. The interior is well proportioned with a quirky and highly versatile layout, with a number of features including for example high ceilings, picture rails, coving, working shuttered windows and several fireplaces, three with wood burning stoves. Whilst there is scope for some updating, this property oozes charm and character; presenting a rare opportunity for a buyer to restyle and modify to their own tastes and requirements. There is ample off road parking and heating is provided by the oil fired Rayburn in the breakfasting kitchen. Viewing really is essential in order to fully grasp the size, potential and outside space on offer. ** hr value - £345,000 - no onward chain**
