<p>A charming traditional Scottish stone and slate cottage with an attractive dormer window, this delightful semi-detached home seamlessly combines quaint character with thoughtfully extended accommodation to create a surprisingly spacious three-bedroom property. The ground floor opens via an entrance vestibule into the inner hallway, which provides access to a welcoming living room centred around a cosy wood-burning stove. Also on the ground floor are the kitchen, a useful rear entrance/utility area, third bedroom and a modern shower room, offering flexible accommodation suitable for a variety of purchasers. Leading directly from the living room is a superb conservatory which has been enhanced with a solid roof and additional wood-burning stove, transforming the space into a comfortable year-round garden room with direct access to the private rear garden. Upstairs, the property offers two further double bedrooms together with useful eaves storage. The cottage has clearly been lovingly maintained over the years and is presented in good order throughout, while further benefits include LPG central heating and double glazing, ensuring comfort and efficiency alongside the home’s traditional charm. </p><p><br/></p><p>LOCATION </p><p>Set on the edge of the village of Gordon, a welcoming Borders village with a keen sense of community and an appealing rural setting, surrounded by rolling countryside and open farmland. Despite its peaceful atmosphere, the village is well connected to nearby towns, making it an attractive option for those seeking a balance between country living and everyday convenience. At the heart of the village are a range of local amenities including a traditional pub/cafe, village hall, nursery and primary school, all of which contribute to Gordon’s friendly and close-knit feel. The Community Woodland is a particular highlight, providing scenic walking routes and outdoor space for residents and visitors to enjoy throughout the year. The larger Borders towns of Kelso (8 miles) and Earlston (6 miles), together provide an excellent range of facilities including supermarkets, independent retailers, cafes, healthcare services, leisure facilities and a garden centre. Gordon also falls within the catchment area for the highly regarded Earlston High School, making it especially appealing to families. For commuters, Edinburgh is approx. 35 miles to the north, while the nearby Borders Railway station at Tweedbank, around 12 miles away, offers regular rail services to Edinburgh, enhancing accessibility to the city and beyond. </p><p><br/></p><p>ACCOMMODATION </p><p>VESTIBULE (1.59M X 1.56M) </p><p>HALLWAY (L-SHAPED) </p><p>LIVING ROOM (4.49M X 3.78M) </p><p>GARDEN ROOM (7.98M X 3.07M) at widest </p><p>UTILITY ROOM (2.26MX 2.03M) </p><p>KITCHEN (3.97M X 2.64M) </p><p>BEDROOM 3 / STUDY (3.57M X 1.92M) </p><p>SHOWER ROOM (2.34M X 2.29M) </p><p>LANDING (0.94M X 0.82M) </p><p>BEDROOM 1 (3.79M X 3.53M) </p><p>BEDROOM 2 (3.79M X 3.53M) </p><p><br/></p><p>EXTERNALLY </p><p>To the front of the property, a cobbled area provides ideal additional parking.
