2 Dykecroft Cottages is a rare opportunity to acquire a traditional semi-detached property with phenomenal gardens and private woodland area. The property is only a short drive from the historic village of Newcastleton and benefits from beautiful views of the rolling hills of the Borders.
The Accommodation
The cottage would benefit from some modernisation but has great potential to become a loving home. A concrete path leads up the front garden to the front door which opens to an entrance porch with second door welcoming you into the main hall. A large bedroom is located immediately on your left featuring pleasant views of the countryside. To the rear of the property is a second bedroom, slightly larger benefiting from a fitted corner cupboard.
The living room boasts dual aspect windows and a traditional fireplace with open fire. A glass pane door provides access to the kitchen at the rear of the cottage. Off the kitchen is an extended rear porch, with single glazed windows and electric supply for white goods. A back door provides convenient access to the rear garden. The bathroom is currently situated off the kitchen and features a bath, white hand basin with underneath unit, towel rail and w.c.
Externally, the cottage features a large wrap around lawn with stonedyke wall to the front and stock proof fencing to the side and rear. There are numerous sheds located in the garden and at the back of the plot is a generous piece of amenity woodland, a natural habitat for a variety of wildlife. The cottage may lend itself to the possibility of an extension subject to necessary planning consents.
2 Dykescroft Cottages is situated in a beautiful area of South-West Scotland and offers a unique opportunity to live a peaceful and tranquil lifestyle, away from the hustle and bustle of citylife.
